Review: Murder in PostScript by Mary Winters
Murder in PostScript by Mary WintersA Lady of Letters Mystery #1Historical MysteryMarch 28, 2023 by BerkleyARC Review by Angela I love historical mysteries, but the ones I tend to pick up are dark and sinister. Murder in PostScript is a lighter, cozier addition to the genre. It introduces a down-to-earth protagonist who starts out as a mysterious advice columnist, Lady Agony, and ends up solving a murder. Amelia Amesbury is just a regular country girl who married a rich, but Continue Reading

Ana María and the Fox by Liana De la RosaHistorical Romance April 4, 2023Berkley Review by Melanie I’ve really been leaning hard into historical romances in the past few months.

Sorry, Bro by Taleen VoskuniLGBTQ Contemporary RomancePublished by Berkley on January 31, 2023Reviewed by Kate As an Armenian-American (and a bisexual one, at that), I both feel super qualified and yet totally unprepared to review Taleen Voskuni’s debut novel Sorry, Bro. I’m coming from a place where I unabashedly loved this book before I even read it, and I don’t know that I am the most fair and unbiased reader. Armenian-Americans have very little representation in the general media, Continue Reading
