This book was just … wow. I loved it as much as I disliked it, and I’m just all sorts of conflicted. I also immediately checked out the sequel as soon as I finished reading this, and I can’t wait to start it, so there’s that. All in all, this was a really hard one […]

I picked this up after reading Paper Fury’s review, because this sounded right up my alley … and I was not disappointed! You know, I keep saying I really don’t read romance, and then I read romance and enjoy it? So I’m thinking maybe I don’t read so much adult romance? I don’t know. I’m all sorts […]
I want to start this out with something that I think is the most important thing to say about this book, before I even begin: I DO NOT FEEL THIS IS NOT A YA BOOK. Parents, please don’t give this book to your younger teens without first being educated on the content and knowing what […]
Let’s be honest: everyone knows Cait, a.k.a. PaperFury, a.k.a. C.G. Drews (she needs a lot of aliases because only boring people have just one). But did you know she did this really crazy thing called writing a book? It’s basically pulling a story out of thin air. Almost like magic, but with 100% less glitz and […]
The author had me at necromancy. Because I am horribly predictable and easy. As a reader, obviously. Did I mention the main character also dies in the first chapter? Talk about grabbing your attention. Caitlin Seal presents a world where the dead have a second chance at life … and thankfully, they’re not zombies. Because […]
The book has a talking sword, okay? It says so right in the summary. We all knew I was going to pick it up. Shadow Magic is available on Kindle Unlimited and is the first in the Darkling Mage series. It’s full of snarky characters, magic, old Gods, and a sinister mystery that remains to […]
Being born and raised in New York (upstate, not the city, thank you), I couldn’t resist the idea of a book being set in Old New York. I mean, there’s also the whole idea of magic, heists, betrayal, and time travel, which only makes it better in my opinion. Hard to go wrong with that. […]
Having just spent a week participating in the Bout of Books read-a-thon … I have books to review! Surprise! Probably not much of a surprise, but hey, it’s the thought that counts, right? I only ended up reading four out of the seven books I had lined up, but that’s more than I expected to, so […]
I picked this up because I’d heard good things from so many people, but I thought meh … and guys, I WAS SO WRONG. I’ll admit, meh is probably not a good attitude to have going into a book, but I’m only human. Mostly. For now. I was totally not prepared for how much I […]
