if all the stars were books, the galaxy would still be smaller than my TBR list
This was a NetGalley request that looked interesting. I quite liked Jo Walton's Among Others, and short fiction is a lovely 'in between' bigger novels for me. I like to sit and read a short story or two in between bigger novels as a bit of a palette cleanser, if you will, so this one... Continue Reading →
Surprise audiobooks are the best audiobooks! I had read this lovely little novella last year with a pretty ridiculous amount of enjoyment and hadn't heard that there was an audiobook until there was! Well, I couldn't not immediately jump on it and spend the evening listening to it. The dead beckon and the little girl... Continue Reading →
I've had this one in my audible library for a long while. It was recommended to me by someone on reddit with the caveat that you should absolutely not let its cover deter you from reading it, and I ended up finding it on audible for a not-ridiculous amount of money (thanks whispersync!) and couldn't...

I've listened to a short story or two by Elizabeth Bear on audible with a good amount of liking them, but hadn't ever read any of her novels. Oh, I've been meaning to for ages. In fact, I've got more than one of them in my audible library, but the TBR of Babel is such... Continue Reading →
I bet you can't guess which genre these are. I bet you caaaaan't! ;D So, I've listened to another audiobook trilogy by this author, which was Urban Fantasy and rather enjoyable if I remember it right, so when this trilogy came across my AudiobookBoom email, I jumped at it. Because this one sounded even more... Continue Reading →
Oh yes. Ohhhh goodness yes. I've been waiting so long for this book. A prequel series to His Dark Materials? Um, Sign. Me. Up. So, I preordered the hell out of it. It took appoximately .5 of a nanosecond of listening to the audiobook sample for me to decide to upgrade to audio for this... Continue Reading →
I've been waiting so very patiently (mostly......) for this book. I quite enjoyed my time with Black Cross, as you can probably tell from my review of it. So, when an ARC of Black Guild snuck its way into my email inbox, it went right onto the kindle and then as soon as I was... Continue Reading →
I heard a little hype about this book on twitter, and couldn't help myself when it popped up on NetGalley. It sounded absolutely intriguing. I'm no stranger to sci-fi, and also no stranger to books involving robots, but this one seemed unique. So, many thanks to Macmillan-Tor/Forge via NetGalley for this book. Earth, 2144. Jack...

Working through my TBR list like a fucking champ! I was skimming the TBR of Babel on my kindle and this one was like 'ME, BITCH!' and I can't argue with that sort of confidence, and so off I went into the world of the Face. Also, I received a free copy of this book... Continue Reading →
This little gem has been on my kindle for ages and it just so happened that today, I needed a laugh. And this book, I am told, and by reputable sources no less, is good for a laugh. So, off I went. For bounty hunter and obsessive sword-collector Katzia of Clovenhoof a trail of dead... Continue Reading →
