The nitty-gritty: A bleak and violent story, made beautiful by exquisite writing and an irresistible female voice. I hope you grow up to be a wild one, that you learn to spit and curse and shoot a gun. This country is not kind to soft women. This book came out of nowhere, but when fellow […]
The nitty-gritty: Just as magical the second time around, this award-winning classic fantasy tale is a must read for ALL fans of the genre. “The men of this town gave me spirits and let me drink till I was asleep, and then they took my armor away from me. If I knew where they keep […]

So today just happens to be my SIX YEAR blogoversary! Yep, I started this blog on July 11, 2011, on a whim, with very little planning or thought. In fact, I pretty much used the first name that popped into my head—I mean, come on! Who calls their blog “Books, Bones & Buffy”?? (I’ve come […]
The nitty-gritty: A dark retelling of Peter Pan, steeped in loss and heartbreak, with thrilling action and lots of surprises. We were still children, for all that we thought we weren’t. We were in that in-between place, the twilight between childish things and grown-up things. Childhood still held out a friendly hand to us, if […]
The nitty-gritty: A visceral and bloody tale of a power struggle between two vampires. On the train, in the tunnels, it is quiet. Nearly last train. Everyone is detritus. As is she. She closes her eyes and floats. Her hands are getting colder. Her heart feels weak. Her wrist aches. Throbs. Insistently. She goes to […]

The nitty-gritty: A delicious mashup of classic horror literature featuring a wonderfully lively cast of female characters. It was a strange experience, dressing as a man. Everything felt different, everything buttoned a different way. But when she had put on the shirt and trousers, she realized what freedom they would give her. How easily she […]
