I've said many times how much I hate "misunderstandings" in books. And I do. Except when I don't. This book is riddled with miscommunications and misunderstandings. Both of the main characters - Kee and Varro - make assumptions and choices that lead the other to make their own assumptions.But. ...

Review: The Foxglove King
The Foxglove King by Hannah Whitten was one of my most anticipated reads of 2022, and it both lived up to my expectations and didn't. Maybe. I'm not entirely sure because any final decision hinges on what happens in the sequel. Let me explain.This book centers on a young woman named Lore who ...

Review: Hunt the Stars
I've re-read this book at least a half dozen times since it was first released. It's such a comfort read for me. If you like Kaleb (Nalini Singh's Psy-Changeling series) and Mad Rogan (Ilona Andrews' Hidden Legacy series), Torran completes the trifecta of telekinetic main characters that you want to ...

Review: The Crown of Gilded Bones
Welp. I think it's finally time to throw in the towel on this series. Pretty much everything I loved about it is gone.I couldn't even read this one. I tried, but the writing was so passive and the editing so haphazard that I ended up listening instead. Sadly, even superb narration couldn't save ...

November 2022 Romance Releases
Being one of those readers who voraciously consumes as much romance as I can get my hands on, I find it easy to become overwhelmed with new releases. What should I read next? The paranormal romance about the werebeast? Or the feminist retelling of one of my favorite fairytales? What about the latest ...

Spookcozy Romance – Your Next Obsession
This is my favorite time of the year. Festive reads tend to be all the rage from autumn right through winter, and I love seeing the trends change from one season to the next. This time last year, my Bookstagram feed was filled with nothing but thrillers and horror, like it typically is every fall. ...

Review: Black Sun
I've been wanting to read Rebecca Roanhorse's books for a while now. First when I saw Trail of Lightning, and then when Brigid absolutely raved about Black Sun. This pandemic has been awful on my reading though, and I just got to this one last month - when I had to fly home for my grandfather's ...
