if all the stars were books, the galaxy would still be smaller than my TBR list
I won this little gem of a novella in a giveaway some months ago, but I've not had the time to sit down and read it (yes, even keeping in mind that it only takes a couple of hours, lol). Well, finally had a bit of time to dive right in, and dive I did!... Continue Reading →
So, it actually took me longer to write and format this post than it did to read this short story. 😀 I really quite enjoy the realism of the Fionn series. It's still modern enough to understand, but it has a gritty could-actually-have-happened in a way realness to it that immerses me in each story.... Continue Reading →
There's something to be said for an anthology from a bunch of authors I like which includes a bunch or stories that (more or less) introduce you to the author's writing style, or (perhaps a little 'and') the worlds they have created. So, of course, when I was offered a copy of this a bit... Continue Reading →
I love a good short story. Sometimes I don't have a lot of time for reading, so I like to get complete stories into my eyeholes before I have to go off and do something else. Anthologies are something I can start and then slowly chip away at without feeling bad that it's taking an... Continue Reading →
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 →
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 →
I'm going to go ahead and review these two novellas together, because they are a beautiful and wondrous pair indeed, and I can't bear to separate them. These came to my attention through my twitter feed (thanks to Tor for that <3), and once I saw them, I couldn't resist, because... well, I mean look... Continue Reading →
I squeed out loud when I found out that I was approved for an ARC of this book through NetGalley. I loved The Last Unicorn. Loved it like only an 8-year-old girl with an *obsession* with unicorns could. I entered the world through the film, but it wasn't too long before I read the book,... Continue Reading →
You may remember me reading a short story earlier this year called Nine Parts Bluster. I quite enjoyed it. It was quite a well put together piece of dark fantasy, where the main character, one Senesio Suleiman Zhao, master monster hunter and wearer of ridiculous beaver hats, 'helped' some villagers rid themselves of an unfortunate...
