DRAGONFLY GIRL by Marti Leimbach – Review

DRAGONFLY GIRL by Marti Leimbach – Review
Posted February 22, 2021 by Tammy in 4 stars, Reviews / 25 Comments

The nitty-gritty: A unique blend of YA and adult, sci-fi and spy thriller, I can honestly say I’ve never read anything quite like Dragonfly Girl. I had a lot of fun with Dragonfly Girl, Marti Leimbach’s well-written YA debut (she has written a bunch of adult titles as well). For readers who are dying to […]

THE MINDERS by John Marrs – Review

THE MINDERS by John Marrs – Review
Posted February 15, 2021 by Tammy in 3 stars, Reviews / 25 Comments

The nitty-gritty: The Minders had lots of potential, but too many silly plot points and unlikeable characters made this a miss for me. I think your enjoyment of The Minders is going to hinge on whether or not you can get past some of the ridiculous plot elements, at least that was my experience. The […]

THE FUTURE IS YOURS by Dan Frey – Review

THE FUTURE IS YOURS by Dan Frey – Review
Posted February 11, 2021 by Tammy in 4 stars, Reviews / 25 Comments

The nitty-gritty: A computer with the ability to see one year into the future causes all sorts of problems in this thought provoking and twisty sci-fi story. I thought this book was a lot of fun! If you enjoy twisty, mind-bending sci-fi stories with an emphasis on technology and how it shapes our lives, you’ll […]

THE ECHO WIFE by Sarah Gailey – Review

THE ECHO WIFE by Sarah Gailey – Review
Posted February 8, 2021 by Tammy in 4 1/2 stars, Reviews / 45 Comments

The nitty-gritty: The Echo Wife is a twisty, emotional and intimate look at the relationship between a human and her clone replica. Sarah Gailey is one of those writers who never writes the same book twice. This is my fifth Gailey book, and once again I’m surprised by how unique each of their books is. […]

WINTER’S ORBIT by Everina Maxwell – Review

WINTER’S ORBIT by Everina Maxwell – Review
Posted February 2, 2021 by Tammy in 4 1/2 stars, Reviews / 41 Comments

The nitty-gritty: Romance, intrigue and mystery collide in this sparkling science fiction debut. Winter’s Orbit was such a nice surprise! From some of the publisher’s descriptions and comparisons, I was expecting a much more romance-heavy story, but for those of you who shy away when the word “romance” comes up, fear not. The relationship between […]

THREADER ORIGINS by Gerald Brandt – Review

THREADER ORIGINS by Gerald Brandt – Review
Posted January 28, 2021 by Tammy in 3 stars, Reviews / 16 Comments

The nitty-gritty: Threader Origins had a lot of potential, but a sluggish middle section made this an uneven read for me. Threader Origins has a great hook: a machine called the Quantum Power Source, designed as a solution to the world’s energy needs, misfires and pushes a young undergrad into a dystopian parallel world where […]

HALL OF SMOKE by H.M. Long – Review

HALL OF SMOKE by H.M. Long – Review
Posted January 18, 2021 by Tammy in 4 1/2 stars, Reviews / 32 Comments

The nitty-gritty: An outstanding epic fantasy debut, Hall of Smoke surprised me at every turn. Wow, that was a debut? I couldn’t be more impressed. Hall of Smoke was such a nice surprise, an epic fantasy with Norse mythology and Viking influences that captured my attention and never let go. Even better, Long’s writing is […]
