The nitty-gritty: A lushly written retelling of The Tempest, filled with emotion and complex characters. I gather flowers from the gardens and the fields, and put them on Miranda’s window-ledge when she is not there. I love you, the flowers say. Ariel, that Ariel, does frown at the flowers, but Master has said nothing to […]
![Over-Booked [64] – A Book Haul Post](https://i0.wp.com/booksbonesbuffy.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/ob-2-11.jpg?resize=200%2C200)
Welcome to Over-Booked, where I share my latest and greatest book acquisitions! I’m linking up with Stacking the Shelves over at Tynga’s Reviews and The Sunday Post at The Caffeinated Book Reviewer. Well, the floodgates have burst open these last two weeks. I’m not sure what happened! Usually I go three weeks between book hauls, but […]
The nitty-gritty: Not my favorite of the books so far, but still a very funny and imaginative installment in the Sin du Jour series. At some point I thought maybe Matt Wallace’s series would start to feel “been there, done that,” but thankfully, he seems to have an unlimited supply of humorous fodder up his sleeves, […]
![Waiting on Wednesday [235] – THE CHANGELING by Victor LaValle](https://i0.wp.com/booksbonesbuffy.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/The-Changling.jpg?resize=200%2C200)
Waiting on Wednesday is the brainchild of Breaking the Spine, although Jill isn’t hosting this meme anymore. In any case, I will continue to post Waiting on Wednesdays, simply because it’s one of my favorite posts to do each week:-D I was thrilled to see this new book from Victor LaValle this week on social […]
The nitty-gritty: A short but foreboding story about the reincarnation of gods, and one unlucky man who finds himself in the middle of it all. I’ve come to appreciate solid writing and storytelling from the folks at Unsung Stories, and so I was excited to accept The Speckled God for review, which turned out to […]
The nitty-gritty: A dark and twisty, different kind of love story, where things are not at all as they first appear. Like everyone else on the planet, I heard all the marketing noise about the big twist at the end of Behind Her Eyes, via the #wtfthatending hashtag. I guess as far as marketing schemes […]
Welcome to What’s On My Plate, my monthly post where I lay out my reading and blogging plans for the month ahead! It’s a great way for me to focus on the books I’d like to read for review that month, and hopefully you’ll see something you’ll want to come back for. I have to […]

Waiting on Wednesday is the brainchild of Breaking the Spine, although Jill isn’t hosting this meme anymore. Not sure if someone has taken over the mantle or not, but if anyone out there knows, please share! In any case, I will continue to post Waiting on Wednesdays, simply because it’s one of my favorite posts […]
The nitty-gritty: An addictive, fast-paced science fiction thriller in space, full of buried secrets, cool tech and endlessly interesting characters. I loved the premise for Six Wakes when it first made its way onto my radar, but I had no idea what I was in for when I started reading. This is one of those […]
