Eye of the Storm by Sam Skyborne
Romance on a sunny Greek island The Lesvos Island collection is a series of standalone romances set, as the name suggests, on the beautiful Greek island of Lesvos. Eye of the Storm is the third installment and the first book I’ve read by this author. I’ve been to Skala Eressos on Lesbos twice on vacation […]
The Last Days of Hong Kong by G.D. Penman
A satisfying ending to the Witch of Empire series This is the end of a good and unique series. This series is alt-history/urban fantasy. It is pretty hardcore urban fantasy, with one of the better magic systems I’ve read in a while, so I would recommend this series more towards big fantasy and paranormal fans. […]
A strong sophomore book for Munir
Review of A Period of unCertainty by Sheryn Munir This was a good read. When I saw the name Sheryn Munir, I knew I had read her before but just didn’t really remember. I finally realized that I had read her debut when she was with another publisher, about three years ago. I remember it […]

An exciting YA sci-fi debut with a bisexual love triangle
Review of ‘City of Shattered Light’ by Claire Winn City of Shattered Light is Claire Winn’s debut novel, a pretty exciting and promising debut. It’s longer than many books I’ve read lately but I read it in a couple of days, I didn’t want to put it down. Asanna Almeida is the heir to her […]
A solid paranormal-romance novella
Review of The Better to Kiss You With by Michelle Osgood This was a cute novella. For my second Halloween read I decided to go with a werewolf story. While I’m more team vampire, I love a good werewolf story or really any kind of shape-shifting animal/human. This is a story that I’ve wanted to […]
An original premise for an entertaining read
Review of Free Fall at Angel Creek by Julie Tizard I’ve got this author on my radar (no pun intended) since I read her debut The Road to Wings which won a GCLS Goldie Award. Her expertise in airplanes and flying make her books very original and interesting. I couldn’t pass this up. When Flight […]
A great way to start off my Halloween reads
Review of The Lost Girls by Sonia Hartl This was a fun read! It’s my favorite time of the year again and I could not be more excited about what that means book-wise. For the next month I will only be reading a few ARC’s, and instead concentrating on paranormal, urban fantasy, horror, and magical […]
