Review: Nettle & Bone by T. Kingfisher
Nettle & Bone by T. KingfisherFantasy/HorrorApril 26, 2022, by Tor BooksARC Review by Angela As much as I adore this author's romantic fantasies, and I absolutely do, sometimes I actually prefer her horror novels. If you haven't read The Hollow Places and The Twisted Ones, you should definitely get on that. This is very much a novel in two parts. The beginning introduces our main protagonist and tells the story of how she came to be on the perilous mission she is currently Continue Reading

The War of Two Queens by Jennifer L. ArmentroutFantasy RomanceBlue Box PressMarch 15, 2022 Review by Jen Whew…The War of Two Queens by Jennifer L. Armentrout is a LONG book. I think it was 25 hours!!

It stunned me at first when Casteel spoke and low and behold it was a real guy! After the initial shock, I did really enjoy his voice. There’s been some Continue Reading

Review: Crowbones by Anne Bishop
Crowbones by Anne BishopThe Others #8, World of the Others #3FantasyMarch 8, 2022, by AceARC Review by Angela It seems like forever since the release of the last Others book by this author, but it was really only 2019. When I tell you I was excited to jump back into his world, that would be an understatement. Crowbones was one of my most anticipated releases of 2022. Once again readers find themselves in Lake Silence and Sproing with Vicki, Julian, and the people who live and around Continue Reading
Review: Electric Idol by Katee Robert
Electric Idol by Katee RobertFantasy Erotica1/18/2022 by Sourcebooks CasablancaARC Reviewed by Jen I was so excited to get Electric Idol by Katee Robert. I LOVED Neon Gods and book two features the story of Psyche and Eros. Psyche is the sister of Persephone from book one, and Eros is the son of Aphrodite, the goddess of love. Who, as an aside, is not a nice loving individual. Aphrodite uses Eros to do her dirty work, killing things and such. I continue to really love this Continue Reading

Review: Certain Dark Things by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
Certain Dark Things by Silvia Moreno-GarciaDark Fantasy9/7/2021 by Tor NightfireARC Review by Angela I really like this author, especially the fact that I never quite know what I'm going to get when I open one of her books. She jumps around genres, going from gothic suspense to fantasy to paranormal historical romance and I get a little excited with each new release. Certain Dark Things is labeled as dark fantasy horror and the version I'm reading is actually a rerelease with a new Continue Reading
