Lynn’s Review: Saturn Run is serious Sci Fi, emphasis on the Sci. And exactly what I needed. A complete break from all of the sub-par fantasy that I’ve been reading lately. The science was definitely beyond me. I took it on faith that the authors knew what they were writing when it came to those […]
Julie’s Review: The Sin Eater’s Daughter sounded like a fantasy type novel to me at first, but it turned out to be a lot more historical royal court drama and less fantasy. The story takes place in an ancient kingdom, where the people believe in various Gods and where the culture maintains customs that we find […]
Lynn’s Review: The Serpent King is what book clubs are for: to point out books I would never read on my own. I read the blurb, and was thinking to myself, no way am I going to enjoy this book. I even put off reading it until the very last minute. Literally the day before […]
Lynn’s Review: The Secret Garden was one of my favorite stories as a kid. Both the book and the movie. While I was looking for a book made into a movie or tv show for April’s bingo card, I received a fortuitous email in the form of a free download for The Secret Garden. So […]

Lynn’s Review: I am an enormous fan of Jay Crownover’s Marked Men series. And I approached the new Saints of Denver series with both excitement and trepidation. Would I like these new characters as well? Would I love them? If Built is any indication, then yes. Yes I would. In the Marked Men series, […]
Julie’s Review: I had Witch Song on my eReader shelf for quite some time and finally got a chance to read it as an audiobook. So this is both a #ShelfLove review as well as a review copy review. Wheeeee. I really liked the main character, Brusenna. While naive and sheltered, she’s brave and determined to […]
Lynn’s Review: I’m having a difficult time deciding how I feel about The Marriage of Opposites. It’s been days since I finished listening to the audio, and I’m still not sure if I liked it. The Marriage of Opposites is a fictionalization of the life of Rachael Monzano de Pissarro, the mother of impressionist artist […]
