A Pirate’s Life for Tea (Tomes & Tea Cozy Fantasies #2) by Rebecca Thorne
Fun Cozy Fantasy! I loved A Pirate’s Life for Tea by Rebecca Thorne – this is the sequel to the first book in the series Can’t Spell Treason Without Tea. The author Rebecca Thorne has described these stories as “cozy fantasies with higher stakes”. There is more action and adventure than a typical cozy fantasy, but […]
Payback’s a Witch by Lana Harper, narrated by Jeremy Carlisle Parker
A very enjoyable listen I needed a light audiobook to finish the year and I asked my friend Jude for an audio recommendation. I’ve seen this book some time ago but as I’m not a fan of the fantasy genre, I never checked it. I’m glad I did now because it was very entertaining. Emmy […]
Even Though I Knew the End by C.L. Polk, narrated by January LaVoy
An outstanding novella For such a short read (or listen in my case), Even Though I Knew the End packs a punch. The worldbuilding is remarkable, the mood enthralling, the story captivating and brimming with twists. It starts three days before Helen Brandt is scheduled to die, having sold her soul ten years ago to […]
The New Shore by Caren J. Werlinger
I’m so happy to be back on Little Sister Island! While Werlinger is a brilliant author, with so many great books, her Little Sister Island series holds a special place in my heart. This is a series filled with romance, family, adorable pets, and a setting that is just as important as any main character. […]
Fury by Jen Lawrence
I’m totally in love with these worlds As good as Guardian is, Fury is next level. Lawrence must have been writing on the sly for a very long time because this book rolls along at a comforting pace as a tale told long into the night by a trusted friend. No glitches, no bumps, just […]
Spear by Nicola Griffith
An Arthurian tale with a female twist Seeing a new Nicola Griffith novella coming out put a spark in my heart. Spear is an Arthurian tale with a female twist which makes it even more amazing. The main character, Peretur, is raised in an isolated cave deep in a forest, warded by her mother’s magic. […]
A Touch of Fire by Nita Round
Always a fun ride This is book five of the Towers of Earth series (not including two prequel novels) and I just love it to pieces. I’ve been reading it for years now and I can’t imagine not waiting for a new book to come out. I love the whole world Nita has created and […]
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 […]
The Demon Equilibrium by Cathy Pegau
Review of The Demon Equilibrium by Cathy Pegau ’Cor unum, et fortissimi!’ The Demon Equilibrium by Cathy Pegau, published by Bywater Books, brought the right atmosphere for this time of year. In this historical romance set in 1903, the Demonic Horde threatens to unleash Hell on Earth and the only duo who can put a […]
