Burn For Me by Ilona Andrews

Burn For Me by Ilona Andrews

3.5 stars — While the plot of this one was very fast and engaging, the romance aspect actually detracted for me.  But to be fair, this is just a huge mismatch personal taste-wise as far as that aspect goes. I started listening to this one on audio since my library didn’t have the ebook.  And […]

Blood and Bonbons by Melissa Nicole

Blood and Bonbons by Melissa Nicole

4 stars — This was a fun start to a series.  I’m not entirely sure what to expect from the next few books — love triangle?  Reverse Harem?  Minimal romance, more mystery?  It’s a…*cough* mystery.  *rolls eyes* I really enjoyed Everly, and felt like I could connect with her super easily.  She was cautious, kind, […]

Death’s Door by April White

Death’s Door by April White

4 stars — I just love how Ms. White packs so much into her books.  I honestly feel like my favourite part is reading the Author’s Note at the end and finding out which elements were based in fact and where she took liberties to make it work in this world. I have read the […]

Grim and Bear It by Juliette Cross

Grim and Bear It by Juliette Cross

5 stars — You know how you start a series, and you know who all the heroines are going to be in a series (say, if it’s about 6 witch sisters), and almost right from the start, you know EXACTLY which one is your favourite, and whose story you are most looking forward to?  And […]

Cheating Death by April White

Cheating Death by April White

4.5 stars — This was a seriously solid series ender!  While there are a few things that I ponder over, in general it wrapped things up really well, answering questions and setting everything into a good position where I can imagine this world continuing on. Saira really felt like she came into her own throughout […]

Resting Witch Face by Juliette Cross

Resting Witch Face by Juliette Cross

3.5 stars — I definitely enjoyed this one and the world and the background plot with the vampires and stuff…but I was up and down on my feelings about Ruben and Jules. I will admit that I probably was in the minority of not being overly excited for their story.  I know there was definite […]

Waging War by April White

Waging War by April White

4 stars — The realities of WWII as presented through Saira’s eyes was just…HARD.  Like so many people, I’m morbidly fascinated by that war, but I purposely avoid it because it’s just really hard to take.  And it was hard here.  We got to see amazing people, and horrific monsters, and also all the in between […]

Changing Nature by April White

Changing Nature by April White

4 stars — This series just keeps getting better and better as we get to know the characters and the world more!  I think I even had a brilliant theory appear at the end there and I can’t wait to find out if my theory is correct! There were definitely elements that were heartbreaking and […]

Moonlight and Magic by Darynda Jones

Moonlight and Magic by Darynda Jones

3.5 stars — The humour of these characters is still absolutely fantastic, but I found that I noticed the lack of progression even more in this one.  I think my frustration with drawn out mysteries from the reader was showing a bit more. Annette was also extremely frustrating in her obliviousness…or something.  There is a […]

Beguiled by Darynda Jones

Beguiled by Darynda Jones

4 stars — This series still contains some of the more hilarious characters I’ve ever met, and it delights me to no end…I just wish the pacing was cleaned up a bit, and some bits just feel really repetitive.  Still eminently entertaining, especially with Ms. Odom’s narration. I seriously adore Dephne and Annette.  They are […]
