Weeks 38, 39 & 40: Book Review Catch-up

So, after complaining that I didn’t get a book read in time to review two weeks ago, I have three books to review this week. As a result, I’m going to do mini-reviews because there are three of them. Mini-Review #1: Veil of Shadows by Shiloh Walker I really enjoyed this book. It’s the second [...]

Mini-Book-Review

So, I meant to write this post this morning. It’s now nowhere near morning, and I’m only just getting to it. With all that’s been going on in my personal life over the past few months (95% good stuff), blogging hasn’t been what it should be. I think I’ll be slowing it down for a [...]

Week 36: The Native Star

Here is this week’s 52 Books in 52 Weeks post… The Native Star by M.K. Hobson (historical fantasy/romance) This is an e-book that I was given as an ARC prior to its release date. The author thought I might be interested in it – and she was right! The Native Star has a lot of elements [...]

Week 34: Forsaken by Shadow

Here is this week’s 52 Books in 52 Weeks post… Forsaken by Shadow by Kait Nolan (paranormal fantasy/romance) This is an e-book that I picked up after reading Kait’s Friday Snippets on her blog. (They’re here. I’ll wait while you go read them.) I am very glad I did! It’s a fun read, and waiting [...]

Week 33: Thirteenth Child

Here is this week’s 52 Books in 52 Weeks post… Thirteenth Child (Fronteir Magic #1) by Patricia C. Wrede (YA historical fantasy) This is the first in a (probable) trilogy about an alternate Wild West. In this fantasy, Christopher Columbus discovered a land populated by things like swarming weasels and steam dragons. The names of [...]

Week 32: Discord & Bones

Here is this week’s 52 Books in 52 Weeks post… Today we have a 2-book review! First up… City of Bones (Mortal Instruments #1) by Cassandra Clare (YA paranormal, romance-ish) I enjoyed this book, but. It is YA. In places, VERY YA. However, it was amusing. There was some good world-building, and some really enjoyable [...]

Week 31: Beautiful Death

Here is this week’s 52 Books in 52 Weeks post… Beautiful Death by Joely Sue Burkhart (spec fic romance) I really enjoyed this book. I actually considered yelling at Joely over Twitter at one point while I was reading it… because it was 2am, I had tons of things I needed to do the following [...]

Week 30: Waking the Witch

Here is this week’s 52 Books in 52 Weeks post… Waking the Witch by Kelley Armstrong (urban fantasy) First of all, this book is due out for US release today, I believe. Unlike Kelley’s YA series, I did not beta read this one… my local book store got the book I’d put on hold in [...]

Week 29: A Matter of Magic

Here is this week’s 52 Books in 52 Weeks post… A Matter Of Magic by Patricia C. Wrede (YA historical fantasy) This book, while a new release, is actually an omnibus version of two previously released volumes: Mairelon the Magician and The Magician’s Ward. These books had been on my “to read” list for some [...]

Week 28: Frostbitten

Frostbitten by Kelley Armstrong (paranormal romance) This is the tenth book in the (Women of the) Otherworld series, and while it could theoretically be read out of order, there’s no reason why you would want to. At the very least, you’d want to read the other books narrated by Elena (Bitten, Stolen, and Broken). However, [...]
