a blog of book reviews
I'll be honest, the only thing that stopped me from immediately starting this one after finishing Twelve Kings in Sharakhai was that this audiobook is 30 hours long and Twelve Kings was 25 hours long and I thought that I would burn myself out on it if I shotgunned both one after the other. It... Continue Reading →
I've been doing really well at catching up on my audible library lately. I've got so much free time for audiobooks (you can read this as doing work but 🌟with audiobooks🌟. Three cheers for multitasking!) This one was a more recent aquisition but one of those that I kept hearing great things about and thus... Continue Reading →
Given the sheer palpability of the hype of this book, and my sensitivity to hype, it's safe to say that I've been meaning to read this book for quite a while now. I have so little time right now to read books that I haven't promised reviews for, and yet so much time for listening... Continue Reading →
Hey, this is the 1000th book on my goodreads 'read' list. Hooray! Having really enjoyed Andrew Rowe's other books, I was excited to give this one a read. The premise looked really interesting. It's very magical school oriented, which is a trope that I've always liked in all its different forms. This one is in... Continue Reading →

You can see my review of book one, Hell's Rejects, right here, if you'd like. I was given a copy... Continue Reading →

This book has been on my radar for a long, long time. It's also been on my kindle for a long, long time... I'd just never gotten a chance to get to it. Then, one day while I was browsing my whispersync upgrades (which is a dangerous, dangerous thing that amazon has in their kindle... Continue Reading →
Ooooh Sci-fi. I heart you a lot. I'm on a bit of a sci-fi audiobook binge lately, having listened to 5 or 6 of them in a row. I couldn't resist adding this one to the mix, having loved both M.R. Forbes' Ghosts & Magic series and Jeff Hays' narration of it. So, one assumes... Continue Reading →
Gargoyles! This is a type of creature that you don't often see in fantasy. There's so much amazing potential for them as either protagonists or antagonists in fantasy though. This book came to my attention because the audiobook is narrated by one of my favorite narrators. I read the blurb, and it sounded frigging awesome all... Continue Reading →
