Review: Primal Mirror (Psy-Changeling Trinity #8) by Nalini Singh

July 24, 2024 by Melanie 2 Comments

Primal Mirror by Nalini SinghParanormal RomanceJuly 23, 2024, by Berkley Review by Melanie A personal note before I start this review: the entire reason I ever picked up a Psy-Changeling book to begin with is because of my friend and former Smexy reviewer, Melinda, who sadly passed away earlier this year. She adored Nalini’s books and was rightfully convinced that I would love the Psy-Changeling series despite my claims that I just didn’t think PNR was for me. To appease her, I picked up Continue Reading

Review: Resonance Surge (Psy-Changeling Trinity #7) by Nalini Singh

July 18, 2023 by Melanie Leave a Comment

Resonance Surge by Nalini Singh Paranormal Romance July 18, 2023, by Berkley Review by Melanie The newest addition to Nalini Singh’s long-running Psy-Changeling Trinity series is less of a banger and more of a slow burn. A very, VERY slow burn, to be precise. In fact, it took me several days to finish this book and while I wouldn’t say I was bored exactly, I can’t really say I was riveted either. It was fine for the most part, with the action picking up steam (not THAT kind of steam) in Continue Reading

Review: Storm Echo (Psy-Changeling Trinity #6) by Nalini Singh

August 12, 2022 by Melanie Leave a Comment

Storm Echo by Nalini SinghParanormal RomanceAugust 9, 2022, by BerkleyARCReview by Melinda and Melanie Melanie: Melinda and I were super excited to get to read an ARC of this book together months before it was released. We’re obviously huge fans of Nalini Singh as well as the series as a whole. However, that being said, this was not our favorite book in this series, not even close. But look, it’s the 6th book in the spin off series, Psy-Changeling Trinity and if you count the original Continue Reading

The Psy/Changeling Channel: Kiss of Snow

October 29, 2021 by Melanie 2 Comments

Melanie: I’m just going to be upfront - this deep-dive will probably be the longest one yet because once again, SO MUCH happens in this book but also, it’s Kiss of Snow (!!!) and neither Melinda nor I have made any secret of the fact that we absolutely adore this book. That’s not to say we’re ignorant about all of the many (MANY) consent issues found within but it’s a good thing we decided to read this book at the beginning of the month because we have a LOT to say. (Also, who’re we kidding, Continue Reading

The Psy/Changeling Channel: Play of Passion

October 1, 2021 by Melanie Leave a Comment

Melanie: Once again, I had very little memory of this book except for my original GR review letting me know I loved it the first time I read it, which was over two years ago. I wasn’t sure whether the book would hold up - after all, so much has changed in the past two years - but, despite a lot of pretty glaring consent issues that started right from chapter one, I found myself loving the book, loving Indigo, and absolutely adoring Drew. Melinda and I talked a lot about the fact that we both Continue Reading

The Psy/Changeling Channel: Bonds of Justice

August 27, 2021 by Melinda 1 Comment

Melanie: I was a little worried when I started this book because I had very little recollection of it other than Goodreads telling me I had given it a 5 star on my initial reading of this book. I’m super thrilled to say that upon rereading, this book totally holds up. Despite the fact that neither Max Shannon nor Sophia Russo are changelings and I tend to gravitate more towards the pairings where at least one of the MCs is a changeling, this book still worked for me, maybe partially because of Continue Reading

The Psy/Changeling Channel: Blaze of Memory

July 30, 2021 by Melanie 1 Comment

Melanie: Well, this book was a ride…the kind of ride I actually wanted to get off of long before it ended. It’s a little strange to me that in the same month that we delved into some of the Psy/Changeling novellas, we also read a book that arguably could and maybe should have been a novella. When Melinda and I were messaging back and forth during the course of reading this book, she made a comment that really resonated. “Is boring worse than asshole,” she pondered. I’m hoping that over the Continue Reading

Review: Last Guard (Psy-Changeling Trinity #5) by Nalini Singh

July 21, 2021 by Melinda Leave a Comment

Last Guard by Nalini SinghParanormal RomanceJuly 20, 2021, by BerkleyARCReview by Melanie and Melinda Melinda: We've been so excited for this book - and we're going to try to do this review without spoilers! Going into this book right away we know we’re getting a ton of new aspects in the Psy/Changing world because we’ve not only rarely seen much of the Mercant family, we’ve never seen the Rao family before. We’ve also never seen the Anchor designation in so much detail, and then on top of Continue Reading

The Psy/Changeling Channel: Novellas Part 1

July 16, 2021 by Melinda Leave a Comment

This month, we bring you not one but TWO Psy/Changeling deep dives. This first one will focus on a few of the Psy/Changeling novellas. We’re trying to schedule them so that the novellas don’t spoil anything we haven’t covered in any of the regular deep dives yet. This deep dive will cover 3 novellas: Beat of Temptation, Whispers of Sin, and Stroke of Enticement, which all focus on DarkRiver Changelings. Later in the month, we’ll resume our usual Psy/Changeling deep dive with Psy/Changeling book Continue Reading

The Psy/Changeling Channel: Branded by Fire

June 25, 2021 by Melanie Leave a Comment

Melinda: We’re excited to be back and once again have a new dynamic to examine with two alpha changelings in a mated pair with Mercy and Riley. But first we need to give a content warning for suicide of secondary characters. We don't actually touch on that in our deep dive, but this book does have that in the plot so if that bothers you please take care of yourself and skip either all of this book or at least those parts. So we start out with Mercy, immediately being extremely horny and I Continue Reading
