Review: The Witch’s Heart by Genevieve Gornichec
The very second I read the blurb for this one, I knew I would be all over it, so when I saw it pop up on NetGalley one day, I couldn't resist putting in a request. I made a huge squee noise when I learned I was approved for it. So thanks to the author,... Continue Reading →
Review: The Sensation by Amanda Bridgeman
Having really enjoyed my time with the first book in the Salvi Brentt series, I gladly continued my foray into future San Francisco as soon as I could. Thanks to the author, as well as Angry Robot for the review copy! A series of brutal murders has the homicide division of San Francisco's Hub 9... Continue Reading →
Review: The Half Killed by Quenby Olson
I've had this book on my shelf for an embarrassingly long time (like... I winced when I went to amazon to link the book and it reminded me when I purchased it...), but it just never made its way into my (admittedly eclectic and oftentimes spur-of-the-moment) circulation until recently. No time like the present, as... Continue Reading →
Review: We Lie With Death by Devin Madson
I was lucky enough to read an ARC of the self-pubbed version of this one, and so when I was given the opportunity to read this version, which has had some edits and rewrites, I jumped on it! I remember loving it just as it was, but it can only get better, amirite? So thanks... Continue Reading →

2020 has been... rather abominable. But, at least the books have been good, right?! Here are a dozen or so of my favorites from this year!
Review: Paternus: War of Gods by Dyrk Ashton
I've actually been waiting a long while to get this one into my brain, but with an overwhelming amount of physical books, I haven't been able. So, I said I'd wait for the audiobook. And so when I was offered a review copy of the audio as it came out, I cleared my schedule to... Continue Reading →
Review: The Subjugate by Amanda Bridgeman
This one crossed my radar in a few different ways, but every way I looked at it, it looked right up my alley. Cyberpunk! Mystery! Hooray! So thanks to the author, as well as Angry Robot for the review copy! In a small religious community rocked by a spree of shocking murders, Detectives Salvi Brentt... Continue Reading →
Review: Hollow Empire by Sam Hawke
I've been waiting very patiently (not that patiently) for this book, and so when I was given an opportunity to read a copy of it a little early, I jumped at it headfirst. So, thanks to the author, as well as Tor for the review copy! Poison was only the beginning.... The deadly siege of... Continue Reading →
Review: Half a Soul by Olivia Atwater
This book has been heavily, heavily recommended to me even by people who I didn't really expect a rec for a regency fantasy romance from (yes you, Esme). Suffice to say that as soon as I had a few free hours, I was on it! It’s difficult to find a husband in Regency England when... Continue Reading →
