Julie’s Review: This is one of those don’t judge a book by its cover type of books. The cover screams low budget and usually low budget covers mean low budget editing, and possibly even writing.

I enjoyed the vivid descriptions of the dreams Skylar kept having about Isabella and the […]
Julie’s Review Otherborn is a unique story. It definitely is not what I expected. The world building is subtle and slow, where we do not learn all the rules right away. The characters are complicated and their “Others” drive the story as much as their main selves, maybe even more so. The story […]
