Book Review: Lumiere by Jacqueline E. Garlick

November 2, 2016 // No Comments
5 Rambles about Lumiere (The Illumination Paradox #1): Steampunk FTW. I really enjoy Steampunk. This one is a little clumsy in its execution, but it is enjoyable nonetheless. Hydrocycles, mysterious machines, wonderful costumes, mechanical bird guardians…all the trappings of a... Continue reading →

DNF Review: Hidden Gates by D.T. Dyllin

October 26, 2016 // 2 Comments
Spoilers for the first 20% of the book. Do you ever get a few chapters into a book, and just come to the realization that the book is not for you? Yeah, this happened pretty quickly with Hidden Gates, which... Continue reading →

{Book Review} A Shadow Bright and Burning by Jessica Cluess

September 14, 2016 // No Comments
You’ve probably seen this one around the blog-o-sphere; it’s getting some pretty good pre-release marketing and blogger hype. It didn’t live up to the hype for me, alas, but I think it will satisfy many readers. 5 Rambles aboutĀ A Shadow... Continue reading →

September 7, 2016 // No Comments
5 RamblesĀ about MacLean’s Passion by Sharon Cullen: The Romance in MacLean’s Passion is very sweet; it’s about two (headstrong) people coming together and trying to figure out how to be married in the midst of dire circumstances. They both start... Continue reading →

{DNF Review} Everealm by J.D. Wright

August 24, 2016 // No Comments
There are a lot of issues that I have with Everealm. I requested it from NetGalley because the cover is pretty, and the synopsis makes it sound like an exciting Fantasy with a bit of romance. Yeah. It’s mostly info... Continue reading →

{Book Review} Secrets in the Snow by Michaela MacColl

May 16, 2016 // No Comments
5 Rambles about Secrets in the Snow: This is a fun, quick murder-mystery starring Jane Austen as the main heroine. It reads easily, and is lacking any superfluous details, which I always appreciate. You get an engaging story that flies... Continue reading →

{Book Review} Risuko: A Kunoichi Tale by David Kudler

May 6, 2016 // 4 Comments
Risuko has a pleasant and mysterious tone that works well for the first third, then becomes tedious for the rest of the book. I did read all the way to the end, though I was tempted to mark it as... Continue reading →

{ARC Review} And I Darken by Kiersten White

May 4, 2016 // 2 Comments
This is a hard book for me to review. On the one hand, by the end I didn’t really care what happened. I had lost interest. On the other hand, there were some really excellent characters and character development. So... Continue reading →

{Book Review} These Shallow Graves by Jennifer Donnelly

May 2, 2016 // 2 Comments
This book and I had an interesting journey together. I tried reading it twice before, and I had trouble getting into it. Because it was from NetGalley, I tried harder to continue than your average book, and I’m so glad... Continue reading →

{Book Review} The Vanishing Throne by Elizabeth May

April 11, 2016 // No Comments
I was so excited to get an ARC of The Vanishing Throne, because, lets be honest, the cliffhanger at the end of The Falconer is just cruel. The Vanishing Throne picks right back up with a whole new dose of... Continue reading →
