My favorite month of the year is finally here! I decided to do some digging in the old blog archives to see when I started participating in this event, and if I’m correct, this is the eighth year I’ll be joining in! Way back in 2014, this event had different hosts and was called “Sci […]
The nitty-gritty: Richard Gadz channels Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein in this thoroughly original, gruesome thriller set in Victorian London, perfect for fans of classic horror tales. This was my first time reading a title from Deixis Press, and I have to say I’m very impressed, both by the quality of the story and the gorgeous hardcover […]
Welcome to Buffy’s Corner, where I take a look at what’s coming up this week on the blog! I’m linking up with The Sunday Post over at Kimberly’s blog, The Caffeinated Reviewer:-D Happy Halloween, everyone! I can’t believe tomorrow is November already. Speaking of which, if you are a fan of science fiction, you might […]
October was just OK for me, simply because it felt like I was off my reading game and didn’t get to all my October review books. But I did manage to post eight reviews, so I guess it could have been worse! I enjoyed most of the books I read, although there was one that […]
The nitty-gritty: Unsettling and atmospheric, I loved some of the elements, but the author’s writing style kept me from completely enjoying this story. “Hope has no place on this vessel of death and disease, aimless and everlasting in its path.” This is an odd one, folks. Flowers for the Sea is an atmospheric, angry tale […]

Join in the fun each Friday by finding a book whose cover is based on the theme! This week’s theme: Gothic […]
The nitty-gritty: A surprisingly emotional story about family bonds and the lengths one father will go to protect his child. I don’t think I’m alone when I say that I expected These Silent Woods to be a thriller. I’ve seen lots of reviews from readers who were surprised that the story they expected wasn’t the […]
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 […]
I’m linking up with Top Ten Tuesday. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish and is now hosted by Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl. Check out upcoming Top Ten themes on Jana’s blog! Today it’s “Halloween Freebie” on Top Ten Tuesday, and because one of my favorite things is to make […]
The nitty-gritty: Time travel, danger and romance blend together seamlessly in Fisher’s lively finale to her Faery Rehistory series. I’ve enjoyed the Faery Rehistory series so much! With The Warrior Poet, Sharon Lynn Fisher brings her carefully researched historical fantasy to a close, and she did a bang up job. I would personally recommend reading this […]
