Posted August 16, 2024 by Tammy in 4 1/2 stars, Reviews / 17 Comments

The nitty-gritty: Weird and unsettling, The Unmothers explores folklore, belief, pregnancy and grief, a story told in flawless prose, dripping with dread. The Unmothers was not what I expected at all, but I really ended up loving it. I’ll admit I got off to a shaky start, because so many different characters are introduced, and […]

The nitty-gritty: Josh Winning mixes slasher horror and cancel culture in his latest, an entertaining blend of elements with layered characters and plenty of blood.

The nitty-gritty: A darkly sexy fantasy romance, Filthy Rich Fae is the perfect opening to Geneva Lee’s new series. This is my first time reading a book by Geneva Lee, and I had a ton of fun with it! Filthy Rich Fae is urban fantasy with a good dose of romance, but there’s also a […]

THE NATURE OF DISAPPEARING by Kimi Cunningham Grant – Review
Posted July 4, 2024 by Tammy in 4 1/2 stars, Reviews / 19 Comments

The nitty-gritty: Wild nature is the setting for this excellent mystery/thriller where the characters’ relationships take center stage. “The real agony, she now understands, is this. It’s good things—the book of poems, the sandwich, both kind and thoughtful—speckled with carnage. It’s seeing someone you love splinter away from you, shard by shard. Knowing there are […]
