Briar Girls by Rebecca Kim Wells
This was a pretty good fantasy read This was a pretty good read. It did have a few issues, but I found that I quite liked it anyway. This is actually my second Sleeping Beauty retelling that I have read in a row. That was not on purpose, I just wasn’t even thinking but it […]
A good fantasy debut story
Review of Traitors of the Black Crown by Cate Pearce This was a good fantasy story. This was a book I was really excited to read until I noticed the early reviews. I was seeing all these low stars and DNF’s, so my heart sunk and I went into this read with low expectations, but […]
A lovely rom-com fantasy book
Review of Elemental Attraction by K. Aten A lovely rom-com fantasy. Before I start my review I do want to mention that I was a beta reader for this book. I’ve read this story multiple times and have formed more of an attachment to it than I might have had to another book that I […]
When a fling turns to magic
Review of Passion Marked by Ophelia Silk I liked this book a lot more than I expected. While Spellbound, my first book by Ophelia Silk, was okay, this one was far better. It’s not without flaws, however. After a very promising first chapter, I felt like I was reading two stories at once for a […]
A fun and entertaining fantasy book
Review of Rand by Silvia Shaw This was a fun and entertaining fantasy book. I have been a fan of Maggie Brown for a while now. I have read most of the books she has released with Bella with In the Company of Crocodiles and Playing the Spy, being my two favorites. While I haven’t […]
A very enjoyable sapphic Beauty and the Beast retelling
Review of The Misadventures of an Amateur Naturalist by Ceinwen Langley Sapphic Beauty and the Beast! When I saw the cover and title for this book I knew I had to read it. We aren’t supposed to judge or pick a book by its cover, but sometimes you just have to. I was completely sold already […]
What an epic love story!
Review Guardian by Jen Lawrence This was my kind of book. What an epic love story! I often joke about how there are certain kinds of fantasy books that I call “gateway” books. If you have not heard me say that before, I mean fantasy books that anyone can read. Even if you are not […]
This was another fun book in Kelley’s Shift series
Review of Guin the Emerald by Louisa Kelley This was another fun book in Kelley’s Shift series. While I enjoyed the first book, I felt like this one was even better. While this could be read as a standalone, I would suggest reading Fianna the Gold first. There are multiple characters that are in both […]
This book is running for the biggest surprise of ’21 for me
Review of Give Me Grace by Bethany A. Perry Wow! This was way better than I expected. I mean, I always go into a book hoping I will love it, but dark fantasy can be hit or miss for me. Luckily, this was a big ole hit. This was the final read on my “I […]
