Fair Market Value by Hailey EdwardsThe Body Shop #1Urban Fantasy04/18/2024- Self-PublishedARC Review by Angela Hailey Edwards is an auto-buy for me in the Urban Fantasy genre. This world she's created that started with the Beginner's Guide to Necromancy series is top-notch. The Body Shop is the newest series in this interconnected world and introduces Mary Frances Talbot, Frankie to her friends, who is a Necromancer, living with her siblings and running a garage. She also leases out Continue Reading
Angela’s KU Update!
I know how hard it is to wade through the Kindle Unlimited offerings, so I'm going to update y'all on what I've found and loved in the last few weeks. Xiveri Mates by Elizabeth StephensScience Fiction Romance I read the first five books in this series, back to back, last week. Like gobbled them up and couldn't stop turning pages. Which is weird for me since I tend to hop around from genre to genre, not reading the same one twice in a row. I'm kind of surprised that this series hasn't Continue Reading

Angela’s TBR Update
I still have ARCs to read before the end of the year, but I also have a TON of books sitting on my TBR that I've really been looking forward to reading. So I decided to skip some of my must read books, and jump over to my massive TBR list. *All of the titles listed below are available on Kindle Unlimited I discovered Annette Marie's Guild Codex series when it was just Tori and her three mage BFFs fighting the bad guys. This series evolved into quite an exciting, edge of your seat urban Continue Reading
Angela’s TBR Update
Even though I have approximately seven thousand books on my ARC review spreadsheet at all times I still like to mix in books that I've purchased and have been languishing on my Kindle and Library books of whomever I'm currently glomming. Right now I'm in the middle of a Simone St. James backlist glom and a series read of Deanna Raybourn's Veronica Speedwell historical mysteries. I'm almost done with both, so if you have suggestions of what to read next please let me know. Here's what I've Continue Reading

All of the books in this post I either purchased or were available in KU. All are also self-published. Sweep With Me (Innkeeper Chronicles #4.5) by Ilona Andrews 01/14/2020- I love Ilona Andrews and I especially love this series, so of course I one-clicked the pre-order button when I saw that I was releasing right after the new year. Sweep With Me is a novella length addition to the Innkeeper Chronicles and features Dina, Sean, and Gertrude Hunt. As with any Ilona Andrews book, Continue Reading
Angela’s TBR Mini Reviews- Books by Kerrigan Byrne, Hailey Edwards, and Annette Marie
Slaying Monsters for the Feeble (Guild Codex: Demonized #2) by Annette Marie 11/1- I discovered this author on KU and have really enjoyed her writing. The Guild Codex: Demonized is actually a spin-off from the original series, Guild Codex: Spellbound. The main character of Demonized is introduced several books into the Spellbound series and I was hooked as soon as I met her on page. Now I think I enjoy her series even more than the original. I love the dynamics between Robin and her Continue Reading
Angela’s Tuesday ARC Reviews: Amy Harmon, Hailey Edwards, and Lorraine Heath
The First Girl Child by Amy HarmonFantasyAugust 20, 2019 by 47NorthARC This was a very different book than the previous fantasy releases I've read by this author. I would say that I was expecting more of a romance based fantasy and what I got was more of an epic fantasy with romance woven in. Still overwhelmingly lovely and beautifully written, just not exactly what I was expecting. The First Girl Child is a story of love, power, greed, selflessness, and honor. When a young battle Continue Reading
Angela’s Tuesday Thoughts
The Wallflower Wager by Tessa DareGirl Meets Duke #3Historical RomanceAugust 13, 2019 by AvonARC Tessa Dare is one of my auto-buy historical romance authors. I don't even need to read a blurb or know what the book is about to put it on my TBR list. The Wallflower Wager is the third book in her Girl Meets Duke series and I absolutely adored the two previous installments. Lady Penelope Campion had a softness for animals. Gabe had no softness at all. The Wallflower Wager features Lady Continue Reading
Smexy’s August TBR
Angela- I have tons of great ARCs for this month and I want to dig in to all of them right now. The Right Swipe by Alisha Rai 8/6- Alisha Rai is one of my go-to, must-have, auto-buy authors and I love her. This story about two rival dating app creators sounds amazing and I can't wait to read it this week. The Wallflower Wager by Tessa Dare 8/13- If this book is half as cute as the previous book in this series, The Governess Game, I know I'll be in heaven. The First Girl Child by Amy Continue Reading
