Review: A River of Golden Bones by A.K. Mulford

December 13, 2023 by Kate

A River of Golden Bones by A.K. MulfordPublished on December 5, 2023 by Harper VoyagerFantasy RomanceReviewed by Kate I was attracted to A River of Golden Bones because of the fairy tale elements to the story - the sleeping curse, a princess named Briar, you know, the usual. Once I got into it though, I realized that there was so much more to love about the book. It’s one of those books that just sucks you in and makes you want to keep reading into the night.  Please note, for Continue Reading

Review: Do Your Worst by Rosie Danan

November 29, 2023 by Kate

Do Your Worst by Rosie DananContemporary RomancePublished November 14, 2023- BerkleyReviewed by Kate Do Your Worst by Rosie Danan is a fun read. It’s one that is a little difficult for me to review, because I don’t have too many strong feelings about it. Do Your Worst has a good story and fun characters, but it has a few issues that hold it back from being an amazing read.  Overall, Do Your Worst is clever and the premise certainly isn’t something you’ll have read about a bunch Continue Reading
