Angela’s Minis- Reviews for Books by T. Kingfisher, A.J. Hackwith, and K. Eason

October 8, 2020 by Angela Leave a Comment

The Hollow Places by T. KingfisherHorror/ FantasyOctober 6. 2020 by Gallery/Saga PressARC I love this author's fantasy novels, but it wasn't until last year that I realized she was delving into the horror genre as well. The Twisted Ones was FANTASTIC, which means as soon as her sophomore effort in the genre came up for review I hit my request button. The Hollow Places is pure dark, creepy, goodness. I was enthralled from the moment the main protagonist, Kara (or Carrot by her uncle), Continue Reading

Angela’s Minis- A Sweet Mess by Jacyi Lee and Forbidden Desire by Robin Lovett

July 15, 2020 by Angela

I had two ARCs to read this week, one ended up being super sweet and the other sinfully sexy. Both were pleasant reads that kept me going during my Covid quarantine. Pleasant, easy reads for different reasons. A Sweet Mess by Jayci LeeContemporary RomanceJuly 14, 2020 by St. Martin's Press A Sweet Mess is my first book by Jayci Lee. I one-clicked this for review because the blurb sounded cute, and well... a little sweet, and that is something I need in my life right now. This couple Continue Reading

Review: Chaos Reigning by Jessie Mihalik

May 27, 2020 by Angela 2 Comments

Chaos Reigning by Jessie Mihalik Consortium Rebellion #3 Science Fiction Romance May 19, 2020 by Harper Voyager ARC For some reason I didn't realize this series was only a trilogy and Chaos Reigning was the very last book until about halfway in. I'm sure I'd read about that somewhere earlier, but it just didn't register. Now I'm all like NOOOOOOO, give me more! As much as I enjoyed the first book in the series, Polaris Rising, and Ada and her sexy as hell man Loch, I think this might be my Continue Reading

Angela’s Minis- Reviews for books by Amanda Bouchet and Priscilla Oliveras

April 29, 2020 by Angela Leave a Comment

Starbreaker by Amanda BouchetEndeavor #2Science Fiction RomanceApril 28, 2020 by Sourcebooks CasablancaARC Y'all. This was good. So, so good. Like grab you from the first page and keep you reading right up until the last page good. Like stay up until 2:30 in the morning good. (Yes, I did that.) I really enjoyed the first book in the series and was super excited for this next installment, but Ms. Bouchet takes this series to the next level in Starbreaker. For starters, the when the book Continue Reading

Guest Post: Themes in A Paradox of Fates by Rebecca Hefner

March 3, 2020 by Kini 1 Comment

Rebecca's new book, A Paradox of Fates, Sci-Fi Romance, Dystopian Romance is out now. She stopped by to talk about the themes in the book. I always knew I’d write a romance about a theoretical physicist female protagonist one day.  Why? Because to me, a self-proclaimed science dork, there’s nothing sexier than science. It can explain in exact terms why certain parts of our bodies flush with desire when being held in the arms of a lover.  It also leads to a shared understanding Continue Reading

Angela’s TBR Update- Mini Reviews for books by Hailey Edwards, Ann Aguirre, and Ilona Andrews

January 22, 2020 by Angela 8 Comments

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 Minis- Reviews for books by Joanna Shupe, Seanan McGuire, and Zoey Draven

January 8, 2020 by Angela 6 Comments

I'm starting off 2020 with a bang and mini reviews for three fabulous books. Different genres, but all wonderful reads that I highly recommend. Come Tumbling Down by Seanan McGuireWayward Children #5YA FantasyJanuary 7, 2020 by Tor.comARC I really love this series. These aren't long reads, but each one touches on important issues and leaves the reader satisfied and eager for the next release. In Come Tumbling Down readers are reintroduced to Jack and Jill Wolcott, who we first met in Continue Reading

Sheena’s Wistfully Wanton Wednesday: Callie’s Catastrophe by Ruby Dixon

November 13, 2019 by Sheena Leave a Comment

Nothing says Happy Hump Day like a new Alien Sci-fi romance! After a super busy week last week, I saved this baby for a weekend indulgence and indulge I did! Callie's Catastrophe is #9 in the long-running Ice Planet Barbarian /Ice Home series. What I possibly adore most about these novels is how new reader friendly and series loyalists pleasing they are- one could pick up any book in the series, fall in love and have a bounty of previous releases to revel in. And with Dixon's high quality, Continue Reading

Angela’s Tuesday ARC Reviews: Books by K. Eason, Sharon Lynn Fisher, and Sarah Smith

October 15, 2019 by Angela 4 Comments

How Rory Thorne Destroyed the Multiverse by K. EasonThe Thorne Chronicles #1Science Fiction/ FantasyOctober 8, 2019 by DAWARC I started this while on a plane flight between Phoenix and Las Vegas, and was so intrigued right from the start that I was annoyed that my flight only lasted about an hour. I wasn't able to get back to it until my later flight from Las Vegas to Houston, but once I fell back into the story I couldn't stop reading. How Rory Thorne Destroyed the Multiverse is a YA/NA Continue Reading

Angela’s Tuesday Reviews: Sci-Fi/Fantasy Edition

October 1, 2019 by Angela 2 Comments

Aurora Blazing by Jessie MihalikThe Consortium Rebellion #2Science Fiction RomanceOctober 1, 2019 by Harper VoyagerARC As I'm sure everyone who reads my reviews (or deals posts every time it goes on sale) by now knows, I ADORED the first book in this series, Polaris Rising. I still get chills when I think of the first meeting between Loch and Ada. And the tension between Ada's sister Bianca the family head of security Ian Bishop left me on greedy for more. I loved the heroine, Bianca. Continue Reading
