if all the stars were books, the galaxy would still be smaller than my TBR list
Vacation is over, time to go back into the world. Work and chores and blah. Luckily, I had this book to help my woeful transition back into the world of being an adult along. Oh, and also, I was given a copy of this book by the author in exchange for my honest review of... Continue Reading →
Sometimes I just really like a dark fantasy story, and this one is, uh... pretty damn dark. 😀 Most of my reading these days is either primarily at night right before I sleep, or at work in between bouts of actually doing work. This one happened a little more of the former than the latter,... Continue Reading →
I listened to the first volume of this series in audio late last year and so then immediately hoped and hoped for a volume two audiobook- and LO AND BEHOLD, IT IS HERE! I'm going to keep this as spoiler-free for both books as I can. The Wyrde is dead and gone, its protection passed... Continue Reading →
It's definitely time for some short story audiobook shenanigans! I was given a copy of this audiobook for free by the author to have a listen and to review it. What better time to do that then freaking immediately, amirite? It is a part of a longer series of short stories, but this part isn't... Continue Reading →
Oh boy, this is going to be a doozy. Staying calm and not just melting down about this book is going to be difficult. I'll try to articulate. Promise. I also tried to make this as spoiler free for both books as I could, but this review talks a *lot* about the relationship between two... Continue Reading →
Oh. Man. Getting an ARC of this book was pretty near the best thing that's happened to me this year so far, and I felt like it should be treated as my birthday, so I immediately dove right in after having some yes-I-am-an-adult-and-can-eat-cake-whenever-I'd-like-but-this-is-SPECIAL-cake-goddamn-it cake. At the Convent of Sweet Mercy young girls are raised to... Continue Reading →
I read this book last year. Twice! It remains one of the grimmest, darkest, grimdarkiest books I've ever read in my life. Just... goddamn. Arcane magic can be a ruinous power, despite admirable intentions. A mysterious scroll finds its way into Lord Severun’s hands, enabling him to release a dangerous experiment upon Wesson. With Sergeant... Continue Reading →
Time for a short story! Sometimes it's nice to just get away for 20 minutes or so and read a nice little dark fantasy, yes? I received a free copy of this particular story in exchange for an honest review. So here it is! 😀 A monster stalks the ever-dark of Murkwater swamp. A creature... Continue Reading →
Mmm folklore. Is there anything it can't do? OK... probably a lot of things. But that's beside the point here. This is a world that is steeped in some rich folklore, and I have to say I loved it right from the beginning. He locked himself away from the dark, but in the Magpie King’s... Continue Reading →
To begin, I should probably let you know that I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review. Just FYI or whatever. I'm still going to be honest AF and probably definitely curse a lot. 😀 Merciless. Murderer. Monster. He has been called many names in his time. Built for war and... Continue Reading →
