July was a very mixed month and included two five star books, two DNFs, and a few three-star books as well. Favorite books of the month? Without a doubt The Exquisite Torment of Loving Your Enemy and The Farewitch of Foxe Holler (both equally good in different ways). July was also a very “Summer of […]
The nitty-gritty: An uneven story with top notch body horror, Bestiary gets an A+ for the horror elements, but a C- for execution. Bestiary has some great ideas and plenty of gruesome body horror, and in that respect it worked well for me. Patrick Rutigliano is a solid writer (despite some awkward phrasing here and […]
Welcome to Future Fiction, my reimagining of the Waiting on Wednesday meme! There are so many amazing new books coming out, that I can no longer pick just one. My goal with Future Fiction is to share at least three new books each week, a combination of recent cover reveals and books that I’ve recently […]
The nitty-gritty: A thrilling space adventure with colorful, complex characters and non-stop action and danger, Havoc is the perfect wrap-up to Constance Fay’s addictive sci-fi romance series. And so with Havoc, the adventures of the crew of the Calamity and their significant others come to a close, sadly. I have enjoyed this series so much, […]

The nitty-gritty: A modern fairy tale that embraces the idea of “cooking is magic,” The Farewitch of Foxe Holler is a delightful, feel good fantasy with wonderfully relatable characters and plenty of Southern charm. “If a recipe goes wrong, embrace it and eat the surprise. If a recipe goes really wrong, start over and learn. […]

This is my 9th year doing the Mid Year Freak Out Book Tag! The tag was created by Ely @ Earl Grey Books and Chami @ Read Like Wildfire. This is my favorite tag of the year! As in previous years, I’m choosing three books for each prompt, since it’s hard to pick just one. […]
The nitty-gritty: A vampire decides to vacation in Italy but runs into a heap of trouble in Be Still My Unbeating Heart, an uneven story with some great ideas. Be Still My Unbeating Heart is another case of “the cover is better than the book,” unfortunately. I so wanted to love this more, but it […]
