Review: The Brightest Star in Paris by Diana Biller

October 14, 2021 by Angela Leave a Comment

The Brightest Star in Paris by Diana BillerHistorical RomanceOctober 12, 2021, by St, Martin's ARC Review by Angela I am a big fan of historical romance when it's mixed with some mystery and suspense, I'm an even bigger fan of historical romances with mysteries when they have some gothic, ghostly elements. I'm happy to report that The Brightest Star in Paris gave me all that and more. This is a follow-up to the very popular The Widow of Rose House. If you enjoyed the love story Continue Reading

She Who Became the Sun by Shelly Parker- ChanThe Radiant Emperor #1Historial FantasyJuly 20, 2021, by Tor BooksARCReview by Angela This is going to be an incredibly hard book review to write because I'm not sure I'm up to the task of reducing this sweeping, incredibly complex, yet all-consuming tale into a mere thousand words. But I'll try my best. In a famine-stricken village on a dusty yellow plain, two children are given two fates. A boy, greatness. A girl, nothingness… This quote Continue Reading

Angela’s Minis- The Beautiful Ones by Silvia Moreno-Garcia and Scoundrel of My Heart by Lorraine Heath

The Beautiful Ones by Silvia Moreno- GarciaHistorical Romance/FantasyRepub- 04/27/2021 by Tor I'm pretty sure every book I've picked up by this author has been completely different. A mix of genres, a mix of tropes, you just never know what you'll get. The Beautiful Ones is what I would describe as a historical romance with a dash of fantasy. This is at its heart a love story. Hector Auvray has come to the city after a decade to win back the heart of the women he desperately loves. Only Continue Reading

Review: The Bright and Breaking Sea by Chloe Neill

November 18, 2020 by Angela 1 Comment

The Bright and Breaking Sea by Chloe NeillHistorical FantasyNovember 17, 2020, by BerkleyARCReview by Angela The cover for The Bright and Breaking Sea is what first caught my attention and led me to read the blurb and then actively inquiring about a review copy. I am 100% here for badass ship captains magically attuned to the sea. This book was quite unlike any I can remember reading. Sort of a fantasy historical adventure with a dash of romance. The main protagonists were introduced Continue Reading
