October 26, 2020 by Angela 4 Comments

The Ippos King by Grace DravenWraith Kings #3Fantasy RomanceOctober 6, 2020, Self-PublishedARC "We live for those we love," she told him in bast-Kai. "We die for those we love.

The Ippos King was originally serialized on her website, and then edited and released in ebook form in its entirety. I decided to forgo reading the Continue Reading

The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. SchwabFantasyOctober 6, 2020 by TorARC Favorite Quote: "I remember you."Three words, large enough to tip the world.I remember you. V.E. Schwab is one of those authors that takes her readers on a magical, winding journey and they just never know where they might find themselves by the end. When I read the blurb for The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue I was intrigued, so much so that I practically begged for an ARC. I read a tweet from the author Continue Reading

Review: Deal with the Devil by Kit Rocha

July 29, 2020 by Angela 2 Comments

Favorite Quote: "They don't own you-- that was a lesson I had to learn. They may have made you, but what you do with that will always be your choice. Deal with the Devil is the first book in Kit Rocha's new Mercenary Librarians series. This is also their first book that I've read that wasn't self-published and when I tell you I had to practically beg for a copy, I'm not exaggerating. This book was one of my most anticipated of the year and I was willing to do almost anything for a copy. I Continue Reading

The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ KluneLGBT FantasyMarch 17, 2020 by Tor BooksARC Favorite Quote: "Hope?" Linus said stupidly."Hope," Mr. Parnassus repeated. "Because that is what we must give him, what we must give all of them. Hope and guidance and a place to call their own, a home where they can be who they are without fear of repercussion." I’ve seen TJ Klune talking about his new book with his new publisher on Twitter for awhile now. As soon as I read the blurb I knew I had to Continue Reading

Fix Her Up by Tessa BaileyHot and Hammered #1Contemporary RomanceJune 11, 2019 by AvonARC KINDLE * BN * GOODREADS I can't remember why I set this aside a few weeks ago.
