Just… wow. This is not your mother’s mermaid story. And DEFINITELY not your daughter’s either. This story toed the line to being too dark, but that was also one of the best things about it. Aside from the mermaids, this story was historically accurate (or at least as far as… Read more »

Release Day + Review: Beneath Blood and Bone by Claire C. Riley and Madeline Sheehand
It is the end of the world. They call him Eagle, like the grand and beautiful bird that symbolizes freedom. During these dark times, when humanity is experiencing nothing but suffering, a man with such a powerful name should be a beacon of hope, yet he is anything but…. Read more »
Review: The Witches of Blackbrook by Tish Thawer
Overall, The Witches of Blackbrook is a cute read, but considering the material, I really wanted it to be darker. Don’t get me wrong. It’s perfect as a teen read. Sex is hinted at, fading to black. Not one single swear. But there’s also murder, and a witch being burned… Read more »
Review: Rogue by Julie Kagawa
I can’t help but be a little wary when heading into a second book of a series. They are notoriously rough, hard to follow, without a true beginning or end. As is too often the case, there is a large gap of time between books, and readers will find themselves… Read more »
Review: The Shadow Aspect by Melanie Karsak
I have been in love with this series since book one, page one. First came The Harvesting, so completely different from anything in its genre, and then came Cricket in Midway, and yet again, I was blown away by the strength of Melanie’s female characters. But then, starting The Shadow… Read more »
Review + #Giveaway: Jesse’s Girl by Miranda Kenneally
After hearing readers rave about Miranda’s books, I first tried out Breathe, Annie, Breathe, even though I figured it wouldn’t really be my style. And then I was completely blown away. So when I saw Jesse’s Girl, I was skeptical. Rocker romance is so not my thing, but if I… Read more »
Review: Chasing the Wind by Nazarea Andrews
It’s not news that I love Nazarea. I will read anything that she writes, regardless of genre. Chasing the Wind had no problems living up to my high expectations! I award it 5 stars for plot and story telling! It had its flaws, but nothing I couldn’t look past, in… Read more »
Review + #Giveaway: Ink by Melanie Karsak
Review It’s amazing how much can be crammed into a novella, but this could still very easily be turned into a novel. I was not ready for the story to end. Give me MOOOOORE! I quickly became addicted to the characters, and as full as the story was, I felt… Read more »
Review: In Darkness We Must Abide by Rhiannon Frater
Review Rhiannon Frater’s IDWMA is the embodiment of everything I want from a series. Strong characters, intriguing plot, adventure, excitement, tragedy and hope, with a perfect amount of gore. I have invested a huge part of myself in this story, and now that it’s all over, I don’t know what I’m… Read more »
Review: The Ark by Laura Liddell Nolen
Okay, so… WOW. I read The Ark right after a super disappointing book, and my spirits were low. I wasn’t even going to hope for this to be a great read, because honestly, debut authors can go either way. One chapter in… I liked the vibe, but I couldn’t get… Read more »
