The nitty-gritty: Magical and unique, this story takes the idea of dreams and nightmares to new heights, told in Laini Taylor’s trademark lilting prose. It’s always hard for me to squeeze non-review books into my reading schedule, so I was thrilled when a publicist offered me a copy of Strange the Dreamer, even though it […]

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. Some exciting books have made their way to me these past two weeks, including a couple of purchases and quite a few digital galleys! […]
I love sharing my thoughts on the books I read, and so each month I go one step further and run a giveaway for a book that I reviewed the previous month. Before I get to the books up for grabs, please help me congratulate last month’s winner: Zara selected Behind Her Eyes by Sarah […]
You may have read my post a couple of weeks ago about Unsung Stories’ new Kickstarter campaign, an anthology of all new short fiction by some of the most innovative science fiction writers out there. If you haven’t yet donated to this fantastic Kickstarter, you can check it out here. The campaign still has a […]

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 keep running across cool-looking vampire stories, although I’m not completely sure that’s what this […]
I’m coming in at the tail end, but I’m thrilled to be able to do my small part in helping Apex Magazine’s Revive the Drive! I’m even more excited to have Lesley Conner stop by and answer some questions about the campaign, and I couldn’t be more appreciative as I know Lesley is a super […]
The nitty-gritty: Higher stakes, terrifying alien robots, and plenty of human drama as well, I thoroughly enjoyed this follow-up to Sleeping Giants. I had a blast reading Sleeping Giants last year, and despite some issues with the format, I enjoyed Neuvel’s original take on the alien invasion story. If you haven’t read Sleeping Giants, the […]
The nitty-gritty: Disturbing, violent, weird and hallucinatory. This story is tough to handle. How can I even begin to describe Waggoner? He looked and sounded exactly like me. He was also a fourteen-year-old schoolboy. When Mum had laid out my uniform on the bed that he and I had started sharing a week before, he […]

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 Another cover reveal to celebrate! I’ve had this book on my TBR since before I […]
The nitty-gritty: A fast-paced adventure in space with some cool world-building ideas, but with too much of an emphasis on the romance, it lost me in the second half. Color me conflicted. I read lots of enthusiastic reviews of Shadow Run before I dove in, and based on its high ratings on Goodreads, I was […]
