But this year, Lucy has changed from the girl next door to a goth next door, with black hair, loads of […]

Angel Fire Review

Angel Fire Review

 Julie’s Review: This review contains spoilers. Angel Fire has a really interesting concept – girl with the power of fire inside her loses her parents and now has to learn to function and control her ability before others get hurt. Let’s start with the positives. I really liked Darcy at first. She had purpose and […]

Book Review – Neanderthal Seeks Human

Book Review – Neanderthal Seeks Human

  Lynn’s Review: Sadly, there are no actual Neanderthals in this book. That title is very misleading! Though, the paragraph linking the story to the title by Ms. Reid is pretty clever. Can you even imagine? It’d be like Planet of the Apes. He’s Charlton Heston with all the muscles and such. And I’m that […]

The Glass Mermaid Review

The Glass Mermaid Review

 Julie’s Review: I’m a mermaid at heart, so this mermaid romance short got my attention. This is a cute romance, a short and sweet novella, even if it is predictable. Without reading the blurb, which is spoilery already, you know quickly what is going to happen. As soon as Kate describes Cooper as having short […]

Book Review – Book of Speculation

Book Review – Book of Speculation

  Lynn’s Review: The Book of Speculation is dual narrative, part of the story taking place today, and part of the story taking place in the late 18th Century. The two stories are bound together by a book of family history. The current story line concerns Simon, a librarian who has received an odd book. […]

Magic Bites Review

Magic Bites Review

 Julie’s Review: I’ve been hearing amazing things about the Kate Daniels series, and at one point I bought up a bunch of the books when they were Kindle Daily Deals. So I finally decided to stream the audio so I get a chance to read it and see what all the fuss is about. Kate […]

Book Review – UnEnchanted

Book Review – UnEnchanted

  Lynn’s Review: I’ve read a slew of unremarkable books lately. And UnEnchanted is one of them. UnEnchanted is the first of the Unfortunate Fairy Tales series by Chandra Hahn. In this series, Mina Grime finds out that her actual last name is Grimm. Of Grimm’s fairy tales fame. And her family has been cursed […]

UnDivided Review

UnDivided Review

 Julie’s Review: What a ride. For those of you not familiar with this series, it is absolutely frightening because of how realistic it feels while reading it. This type of thing feels like it really could happen and that makes it so dark and so eye opening. It really makes you think about the horrible […]

Book Review – Persuasion

Book Review – Persuasion

  Lynn’s Review: Even when Darcy looks like this, I contend Captain Frederick Wentworth > Fitzwilliam Darcy.   There is just something about Anne and Wentworth. Even after the years apart, the love still burns brightly. Probably more so the second time around. Anne is surrounded by the worst people. Her father and older sister […]

Storm Front Review

Storm Front Review

 Julie’s Review: I’ve had this series recommended to me for a while. Actually I first heard about it several years ago because a former supervisor recommended it to me after hearing my Buffy ringtone. He also told me I better watch Firefly and Dollhouse too once I finish my Buffy/Angel binge. This was quite a […]
