This was great! I am a huge fan of Kelley Armstrong’s writing and have really enjoyed the books featuring this group of characters. This is the third book in the Haven’s Rock series, a spin-off of the Rockton series, where we first meet these characters. I went into this book with high expectations and am […]

This was a delightful story! I am becoming a huge fan of the cozy fantasy genre and this book was exactly what I had hoped it would be. I fell in love with Kiela almost immediately and her sentient spider plant sidekick, Caz, put a big smile on my face right away. I had a […]

I had a great time with this audiobook! It was fun to imagine this world where the people in charge of holidays have their own community and power structure. Coal, or Nicholas Claus, is Santa’s son and can’t seem to do anything right these days. His father is pushing him into a marriage with the […]

This was good! After enjoying the first installment in this series, The Fireborne Blade, I was eager to see what might happen in this installment. This novella can easily be read in a single sitting but delivers a story that packs quite the punch. I didn’t like this installment quite as much as I liked […]

This was great! I went into this book blindly and I am so glad I decided to take a chance with it. I liked the characters right away. Khin and Tyler were the perfect pair and I loved the way they had each other’s backs – no questions asked. This book was a fun blend […]

This was good! I loved C.J. Leede’s debut novel, Maeve Fly, so I was excited to read her sophomore effort and I am happy to report that it did not disappoint. This story is set in a world falling apart after a virus has spread across the country making people feral with lust. Sophie is […]

I really enjoyed this book. This is the first time I have picked up any of Matthew Lyons’s work so I am thrilled I decided to give this book a chance. The story was full of surprises and I was never quite certain in which direction things would turn. I appreciated the fact that this […]

This was great! I have become a huge fan of Kelley Armstrong’s writing. I am impressed that she can tackle just about any genre and does it well. I was excited to learn she had a new horror novel coming since I loved her previous one, Hemlock Island. I wasn’t scared by this book but […]

This was fantastic! I was a fan of the first book in this series but I have to say that I liked this book even more. I was thrilled that the book opened with a summary of the first book which really helped me get my mind back into this world that Emiko lives in. […]
