Two Witches and a Whiskey by Annette Marie

Two Witches and a Whiskey by Annette Marie

5 stars — I don’t know if these books are getting better, or I’m just more invested because I’m in love with all the characters, or all of the above???  But seriously, I’m having SO MUCH FUN!!! Tori just keeps surprising me.  She’s a very complex character in some ways — she’s stubborn, brash, reckless…but […]

Dark Arts and a Daiquiri by Annette Marie

Dark Arts and a Daiquiri by Annette Marie

5 stars — DUDES!!!  It got even better!!!  I think part of that is that I was already introduced to the characters and the world, and definitely invested.  But part of it is the twists and turns and surprises in the story. Cris Dukehart was amazing at narration as always.  Honestly, I need to find […]

Unbroken by Various Authors

Unbroken by Various Authors

OVERALL: 3.5 stars — You know, this was a pretty successful anthology!  I find there are always a few gems (in this case it was Britt and the Bike God, Per Aspera Ad Astra, and A Curse, A Kindness), and then a few that just don’t hit.  In this one, the ones that didn’t hit […]

Bring Me Their Hearts by Sara Wolf

Bring Me Their Hearts by Sara Wolf

4.5 stars — You know what?  That was totally lived up to my high expectations for a fantasy book from Ms. Wolf.  I was honestly worried it wouldn’t, which is why I kept avoiding reading it.  But nope, it was chock full of the same fantastic snarkiness that I’ve come to expect…mixed with a fascinating […]

Lastland by A.R. Ivanovich

Lastland by A.R. Ivanovich

4.5 stars — Wow.  I’ve learned that with this series I can’t trust my gut, and I should prepare for surprises.  So I think I read this one on the edge of my seat, barely able to trust what I was feeling.  But in the end?  It was worth it.  I was wholly satisfied with the […]

Monarch by A.R. Ivanovich

Monarch by A.R. Ivanovich

4.5 stars — Wow.  I just…don’t understand what kind of fucked up imagination this author has to create these crazy worlds.  And damn, but she’s evil for putting her readers through craziness after craziness.  There were twists that while I didn’t guess, I could totally see after the fact.  And then there were other twists […]

Paperglass by A.R. Ivanovich

Paperglass by A.R. Ivanovich

ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4.5 stars — great followup to the first book. Again, lots of great action, an intriguing and unique built world, hilarious banter between characters, a flawed protagonist that has been thrust into the craziness again….oh yeah, and Rune. *sigh* Hmmmm, how am I going to do this review without giving anything away? Impossible. […]

Haven by A.R. Ivanovich

Haven by A.R. Ivanovich

ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4.5 stars — OK, that was a fun ride. Seriously, so much more than I was expecting. First, I LOVED Katelyn’s voice….she could be just absolutely HILARIOUS. She is such a strong, spirited girl, but with a fabulous self-deprecating and witty sense of humour. I actually really enjoyed her friends in Rivermarch too, […]
