Review: My Roommate is a Vampire by Jenna Levine

September 6, 2023 by Kate

My Roommate is a Vampire by Jenna LevineContemporary Paranormal RomancePublished on August 29, 2023 by Berkley Reviewed by Kate I was so excited to read My Roommate is a Vampire. The premise, the Chicago location, the comp to Flatshare?? I was ON BOARD. Unfortunately, the execution left something to be desired, and I was seriously disappointed with the book. I will be honest - if I had not been reading this for a review, I would likely not have finished it. My biggest problem with Continue Reading

Review: Codename Charming by Lucy Parker

September 1, 2023 by Kate

Codename Charming by Lucy ParkerPalace Insiders #2Contemporary RomancePublished on August 15, 2023 by Avon Reviewed by Kate Codename Charming is the second in Lucy Parker’s Palace Insiders. I was intrigued by the royal-adjacent romance that didn’t star any royals, even though I skipped the first in the series, Battle Royal. I was excited by the grumpy/sunshine premise and the fake dating and this book did not disappoint.  I am going to mention first off, however, that while Continue Reading

Audio Review: Empire of the Vampire By Jay Kristoff

August 31, 2023 by Jen

Empire of the Vampire by Jay KristoffDark FantasyMacmillan AudioSeptember14, 2021 Review by Jen I started a new gig and we’re moving, too! Things have been busy and I haven’t read as much as I would normally like. But, this book was absolutely addicting and I just had to share. A little history, my book pipeline went from Harry Potter to Twilight to all things Anne Rice, then Black Dagger Brotherhood…which I eventually just had to give up on. THERE’S JUST SO DAMN MANY IN THAT Continue Reading

Review: Once a Rogue by Allie Therin

August 30, 2023 by Kate H.

Once a Rogue by Allie Therin Roaring Twenties Magic #2LGBTQ+, Historical Paranormal RomanceAug 22, 2023- Carina Press Review by Kate H. I really resist romance books which are series that center on the same relationship.  And when it’s been over a year since I read the previous books, I am always dubious that I will stitch myself back into the feelings, and the narrative.  But without a doubt, I was sucked back within a minute of starting Allie Therin’s Once a Rogue, the sequel Continue Reading

Angela’s Minis- Thornhedge by T. Kingfisher and Looking Glass Sound by Catriona Ward

August 25, 2023 by Angela

Thornhedge by T. KingfisherFairytale Retelling/FantasyAugust 15, 2023- Tor BooksARC T. Kingfisher is an author I've grown to love, whether it's romantic fantasy, horror, or in this case a twisted fairytale retelling. This is a reimagined sleeping beauty, where the sleeping princess is an evil changeling and the fairy godmother is actually the heroine of the story. Yes, there is even a kind-hearted knight bent on rescue, but he's not what you've come to expect either. Thornhedge is Continue Reading
