The nitty-gritty: A fast-paced sci-fi adventure, with one of the coolest concepts I’ve ever run across, and a twist that you won’t see coming. I’ve heard so many wonderful things about Will McIntosh’s adult novels (Love Minus Eighty and Defenders) but this is the first book of his I’ve read. In his YA debut, McIntosh has come […]
![Waiting on Wednesday [184] – NEVERNIGHT by Jay Kristoff](https://i0.wp.com/booksbonesbuffy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Nevernight-2.jpg?resize=200%2C200)
Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Breaking the Spine, and is a fun way to share upcoming books that we’re excited about with other bloggers and readers. I’m so happy this cover was just revealed, because I’ve had it on my Goodreads TBR since last July! I’m a HUGE Jay Kristoff fan, and I’m so […]
The nitty-gritty: A gritty and magical story with plenty of danger, romance and a very special drink called sorcerer’s shine. Magic can achieve a lot of things, but it can’t undo the past. I’ve sworn off sorcery, buried my magic with earth, blood, and tears below the ground, but I’d gladly sell my soul to […]
Where the hell did January go?? I swear it was just Christmas! So yeah, welcome to February! It’s leap year, in case you’ve been hiding under a rock, which is pretty cool, and it also means one more day to sneak in February books:-) And this month is EPIC for review books here on the […]
The nitty-gritty: A twisty and addictive mystery with cool science fiction overtones, full of atmosphere galore. I’ve read two outrageous stories in the past week, and this is one of them. (The other being Burning Midnight which I’ll be reviewing later in the week.) And when I say “outrageous,” I mean crazy plots that blew […]
![Waiting on Wednesday [183] – BREATH OF EARTH by Beth Cato](https://i0.wp.com/booksbonesbuffy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Breath-of-Earth.jpg?resize=200%2C200)
Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Breaking the Spine, and is a fun way to highlight upcoming books that we’re excited about with other bloggers and readers. I’m going for the pretty cover this week, folks! I’m totally in love with this one: In an alternate 1906, the United States and Japan have forged a […]
Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by the Broke and the Bookish, and each week bloggers are given a different top ten list to blog about. This is “freebie” week, and I decided to step away from speculative fiction this time, and show some love for literary fiction, which is also near and dear to my […]
The nitty-gritty: A big, complex and emotional sequel that delivers on all levels, with the best female characters you’re likely to read all year. Mulaghesh slows to a stop as it comes into view. It is like a dome—a broad, brown, curving structure nearly thirty or forty feet wide. But it is made entirely out […]
The nitty-gritty: Another hilarious entry into the Sin du Jour world, with some of the funniest dialogue I’ve ever read. “Are you guys almost done down there?” he asks the impossibly small piece of composite concealed in his right ear. “I’m fuckin’ bored.” “Us ‘guys’ are rigging the final charge now,” Cindy’s irritated voice answers […]
![Over-Booked [43] – A Book Haul Post](https://i0.wp.com/booksbonesbuffy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/ob-1-23.jpg?resize=200%2C200)
Over-Booked is where I get to share my recent book acquisitions, both purchases and review books, and I’m linked up with Stacking the Shelves and The Sunday Post. I’m happy to report I don’t have a huge haul this week, so far I’m keeping control of my TBR pile! There is one exciting book I’m […]
