Review: Godkiller by Hannah Kaner

This book was released a couple of weeks ago, which is lucky for you because you’ll be able to run – not walk – to your local book shop and get this book. And you should, because this one is probably my favorite new author that I’ve read this year. Considering the fact that I […]

Review: Thornhedge by T Kingfisher

Everything T Kingfisher (and Ursula Vernon) does is perfect. This is not an exaggeration. Everything I have read under any pen name, I have loved. This story is no different. Yes, this is a retelling of Sleeping Beauty. No, it is not the Disney or even the Grimm version. This is a story about unintended […]

Review: Gryphon in Light by Mercedes Lackey & Larry Dixon

There are Valdemar fans and then there are people who haven’t read a Valdemar book yet. I only recently decided to pick up this series which I somehow missed in the prolific reading in my childhood. And I can’t imagine that there is anyone out there who has read it and not enjoyed it. It’s […]

Review: The Sun & The Void by Gabriela Romero Lacruz

I can’t lie, I’ve been a fan of Gabriela Romero Lacruz since before she was an author and before I even knew her name. I ran across her shop from a social media post ages ago, and the tiger mug I drink my coffee out of makes me smile every time I use it. I […]

Review: The Archive Undying by Emma Mieko Candon

I jumped at the chance to review this book based on the synopsis. Gods that are AIs? Well, as someone who’s been thinking people have been a little too worshipful of AIs lately, I was incredibly interested in this book. It wasn’t what I was expecting, to be honest, but I found it intriguing and […]

Review: Conquer the Kingdom by Jennifer Estep

I regret that I had to hold this review due to the HarperCollins Strike, however, it seems that they’ve reached a tentative agreement with the union, and I feel badly that the author was caught in the middle of this, so I’m going to go ahead and allow this review to post. This books is […]

Review: Eclipse the Moon by Jesse Mihalik

This book is part of a series, and I haven’t, unfortunately, read the rest. But this book has me looking to get the rest from the library, because I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. The mystery and action aspects of this book are top notch. The romance is sweet, resolved without a […]

Review: Tear Down the Throne by Jennifer Estep

You win, Jennifer Estep, you win. I am already in the middle of reading everything you’ve ever written. Seriously, I’ve read this in-progress series, I’ve got one more book in the Crown of Shards series to read. I’m, I think, 4 books or so in on the Elemental Assassin series, and holy Bob, I’m finding […]

Review: The Violence by Delilah S Dawson

This book was really good, very tight, super intense… and I don’t think I can finish it. I don’t know what I was thinking when I requested it, other than I’m a fan of Delilah in general. Thrillers are not my cup of tea, usually. I’m anxious by nature so I don’t enjoy making myself […]
