a blog of book reviews
This week I return my ears to the Chaos of the Covenant series, a spacey space opera that follows the exploits of one Abbey Cage and her band of escaped convicts known as Hell's Rejects. You can see my review of book one, Hell's Rejects, right here, if you'd like. I was given a copy... Continue Reading →
I've heard many good things about this book, and I couldn't really help myself from jumping on board the hype train. *toot toot* bitches, I have assimilated the hype!~ So to audible I went, because who can resist a well done audiobook (not me), and who had an audible credit (me, me, me!) and here...

Nerd alert! If you weren't aware, I'm a bit of a gamer... Okay, more than a bit, lol. I met my husband on World of Warcraft, FFS. >.> So, I'm okay with a books about video games. The whole LitRPG genre is very popular in Japan, Korea, and Russia and it seems to be sort... Continue Reading →
Last year, he announced that he had written a book of Norse Mythology, and the world rejoiced (well, I mean... I rejoiced. I assume others out there did too. I don't keep track of the *whole* world). And so the audiobook was preordered (because I will -always- listen to a Neil Gaiman book in audio... Continue Reading →
