Welcome to Over-Booked, my “couple times a month” post where I share my most recent book acquisitions. I’m linking up with Stacking the Shelves at Tynga’s Reviews and The Sunday Post at The Caffeinated Book Reviewer. Nice, light book haul today, which is great, since I’m SO far behind with review books! Physical books for […]
The nitty-gritty: Sexism and feminism collide in a strange but likable tale about a grim message from the future and the young woman who is determined to try to make things right. It is beyond me to be calm, even though this is a ridiculous piece of whimsy that I did not care for just […]
The nitty-gritty: A fascinating concept, political intrigue, plenty of mysteries, but written in a format that might not work for every reader. I love reading hyped books like Sleeping Giants, because I like to form my own opinions. Sleeping Giants has received all sorts of starred reviews from review journals, but in the blogging community, […]
![Waiting on Wednesday [198] – SIX WAKES by Mur Lafferty](https://i0.wp.com/booksbonesbuffy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Six-Wakes.jpg?resize=200%2C200)
Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Breaking the Spine, and is a fun way to share upcoming books that you’re excited about with other bloggers and readers. This story sounds trippy! A mystery set on a spaceship, with resurrected clones… A space adventure set on a lone ship where the murdered crew are resurrected through […]
The nitty-gritty: Intricate and otherworldly, emotional and thought provoking, Tidhar’s vision of the future is both familiar and alien at the same time. With each season a new godling appeared in the streets and alleyways of Central Station. They were nebulous things, more than human, less than Other, like semi-sentient sculptures which straddles both the […]
![Waiting on Wednesday [197] – CROSSTALK by Connie Willis](https://i0.wp.com/booksbonesbuffy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Crosstalk.jpg?resize=200%2C200)
Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Breaking the Spine, and is a fun way to share upcoming books that you’re excited about with other bloggers and readers. I’m a big Connie Willis fan from WAY back, when I discovered Doomsday Book and Bellweather, and I’m excited to see a new book coming out from her! […]
I just counted the books I’ve reviewed in the past two months, and I’m horrified with myself. How can I call myself a book blogger?? It’s been a very “real life” heavy few months, and reading/blogging has had to take a backseat to other things. I hope I can get back to the kind of […]
The nitty-gritty: A wonderful mixed bag of 80s nostalgia, creepy horror and a friendship that weathers all sorts of obstacles. “Promise me you’ll always be my friend,” she said. “DBNQ,” Abby replied. It was their shorthand for “I love you.” Dearly But Not Queerly. And they lay there on the freezing sand and felt the […]
![Waiting on Wednesday [196] – GOOD MORNING, MIDNIGHT by Lily Brooks-Dalton](https://i0.wp.com/booksbonesbuffy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/gmm-lily.jpg?resize=200%2C200)
Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Breaking the Spine, and is a fun way to share upcoming books that you’re excited about with other bloggers and readers. I just stumbled upon this book, and was immediately hooked by the comparisons to Station Eleven and The Martian: A debut novel set at the edges of civilization: […]
A few years ago, I had the pleasure of reading the first two books in J.D. Horn’s Witching Savannah series (The Line and The Source), and really enjoyed them. Too many review commitments prevented me from getting to the third book, but I was super excited when a publicist contacted me about featuring J.D.’s latest […]
