I've really enjoyed everything that I've read by TJ Klune, so when this made its way into my hands I gladly added it to my TBR. Many thanks to the author as well as Tor via NetGalley for the review copy. In the spring of 1995, Nate Cartwright has lost everything: his parents are dead,... Continue Reading →
Review: A Drop of Corruption by Robert Jackson Bennett
I really enjoyed the last book in this series, so as soon as I had the time to sit down with this one, I was on it! Thanks to the author, as well as Del Rey for the review copy! In the canton of Yarrowdale, at the very edge of the Empire’s reach, an impossible... Continue Reading →
Review: Those Fatal Flowers by Shannon Ives
Well, this book certainly sounded all the entire way up my alley, so when the publisher reached out, I grabby grabbed. Thanks to the author as well as Dell via NetGalley for the review copy! Before, Scopuli. It has been centuries since Thelia made the mistake that cost her the woman she loved. As the handmaidens... Continue Reading →
SPFBO Review: The Tenacious Tale of Tanna the Tendersword by Dewey Conway & Bill Adams
Time for my last SPFBOX review! Did I save the best for last? We'll see. Galdifort Quillpen has grand dreams of writing epic tales of heroic deeds, just like his famous aunt. Unfortunately, he’s been assigned to Tanna the Tendersword, an excruciatingly carefree would-be-champion who can’t seem to find a qualifying entry-level quest. When things... Continue Reading →
SPFBO Review: Gates of Hope by J.E. Hannaford
Time for another SPFBOX review! We're almost at the end and it's getting exciting! The Watcher shattered the gates. Now hope must arise from the shards. Five hundred cycles ago, the Watcher closed the gates between the world of Lieus and its moons to end a war. Since then magic has been hidden, relegated to... Continue Reading →
SPFBO Review: The Humane Society for Creatures and Cryptids by Stephanie Gillis
Moving right along with my SPFBOX reads. Nearly there! The Lambros family has never fit in with the town of Pandora, even from the very beginning. Since their ancestors immigrated from Greece with magical creatures in tow, the townsfolk have never trusted them and that hasn't changed in the centuries since. Now, Melpomene, Calliope, and...

SPFBO Review: The Oathsworn Legacy by K. R. Gangi
Onto my next SPFBO Finalist review! Rawley and Baelin make a living the only way they know how—protecting the people of Centrum by slaying the dark things that stole their childhood: Monsters, and everything evil. Though the work never ends, and there’s plenty of coin to go around, Rawley and Baelin discover a sinister secret... Continue Reading →
SPFBO Review: By a Silver Thread by Rachel Aaron
I'm on a roll with these SPFBO books right now. Considering that I'm trying to paint a house at the same time, I'm pretty proud of myself, lol. In the world’s most magical metropolis where spirits run noodle shops and cash-strapped dragons stage photo-ops for tourists, people still think fairies are nothing but stories, and...

Blog Tour: The River Keeper and Other Tales by Nancy Joie Wilkie
This one was offered to me as a review request, and while I normally don't have time these days, the summary of this one sounded really good, and so I made an exception. Thank you to the author, as well as Amplify Publishing for the review copy. This collection of seven short stories invites you... Continue Reading →
Review: The Dream Traveller: Dark Rising by John Nassari
Hello again! It's been quite a while since I managed to get an audiobook in. I can't really listen at work like I used to, so it's a bit harder to get audiobooks in at quite the frequency I was, but I'm working at it. 🙂 This one was offered to me in exchange for... Continue Reading →
