Fake Dates Are Great

Not The Witch You Wed by April Asher

April 7, 2024 by finnyfinfinn Leave a Comment

This is a sweet little confection of a supernatural romantic comedy in which two people fake date until they reach their stated goals then part as respectful friends… Just kidding, it goes exactly as you’d expect. Violet Maxwell is a witch without magic. She’s made a good life for herself away from the magical high society her family belongs to. But as the oldest Maxwell triplet the loophole she used to avoid a Witch Bond is closing. Alpha Wolf Lincoln Throne is coming up on […]

Sabrina the Teenage Witches

The Invocations by Krystal Sutherland

March 13, 2024 by finnyfinfinn 2 Comments

Well they are all teenagers but definitely not the ABC Family Sabrina type witches, more the Netflix PG-13 type Sabrinas. Sadly no wisecracking Salem the cat here either, though there is a big silent demon. Zara Jones is desperately trying to find a way to bring her murdered sister back from the dead. Jude Wolf is a billionaire’s daughter suffering from a curse gone horribly wrong. Both girls urgently need a real witch to help them. Emer Byrne is a curse writer from a deceased […]

No Reunions

There Should Have Been Eight by Nalini Singh

March 6, 2024 by finnyfinfinn 2 Comments

Especially do not attend any reunions that are in memory of a lost friend or are being held in New Zealand.  Between this book, Wellington Paranormal, and Taskmaster NZ I’m starting to be very suspicious of what’s happening on that island. Eight teenagers were the best of friends until everyone’s favorite, Bea, died. Over the next nine years the group has drifted apart but Bea’s sister Darcie has organized a reunion for them at her family’s creepy mansion out in the countryside. It should be […]

Be Sure

Lost In the Moment and Found by Seanan McGuire

Mislaid In Parts Half-Known by Seanan McGuire

February 27, 2024 by finnyfinfinn Leave a Comment

Keep up with your cardio; you never know when you might need to run away from a dinosaur. Seanan McGuire’s Wayward Children novellas tell us about mysterious doors that appear to children in places no doors should be, with the words ‘Be Sure’ prominently displayed. And if that child, who usually doesn’t quite fit in their world, chooses to open that door and go through they will find a place more amazing than their wildest dreams. Usually the doors choose the right child, but not […]

But there’s also another potential thief and more missing jewelry. Of course there’s more to the story. Also Stephanie is dog-sitting for her boyfriend who’s in Miami.

Creatures In The Mist

Starling House by Alix E. Harrow

February 2, 2024 by finnyfinfinn Leave a Comment

All the creepy existential dread your gothic little heart could desire. Opal is scratching out a meager existence in Eden, Kentucky- a small town plagued by more than its fair share of bad luck. With no remorse she will lie, cheat, and steal in service of a better life for her younger brother out of this miserable place. Opal is offered a surprisingly well paid job as housekeeper at Starling House. She knows she shouldn’t take the job, she knows there’s something wrong with the […]
