This is a weird little novel, and I’m not quite sure how it ended up on my Kindle. I mean I know how, obviously I bought it, but I don’t know why I decided to buy it. But boy am I glad that I did. It’s weird, and sweet, haunting and engrossing, and I think it’s going to be a book that you either love or hate. The prose is beautiful and the plot is intricate and well crafted. I highly recommend this one. The […]
And a being of horror came forth to my view
I am now completely caught up on this series and I have pre-ordered book 5. I state again, I don’t think these are amazing books but they’re light, fluffy, and fun to read. This book explores more of the world of the Fae as Alex is caught up in Winter Court political intrigues. She is asked to investigate the death of one of the Winter Queen’s handmaidens. In the process, she discovers the dangerous connection of that death to a new street drug in the […]
NiceGuy Ducky, she defends NiceGuyDucky ARGH
This was not my first choice for the book club; in fact, it wasn’t my second or third choice either. I think I would have preferred any other of the book club choices to this one, however I was overruled and democracy blahblahblah. I honestly went into it with an open mind, I may not have looked forward to reading it, but hey, I was willing to give it a chance. I like 80s movies, maybe not to the extent that Freeman does but I […]
Only Memories Remain
Grave Memory is book three of the Alex Craft books and I am quickly churning through this series. In fact, I’m going through it so quickly that I just started the last of the published books. I will be… not sad exactly when there are no more books to read, but something like sad. The books are playing with different death myths, and they’re fun and light and good escapism. In Grave Memory Alex starts investigating an apparent suicide, which she witnesses, when the ghost […]
Fae Don’t Know Death
Grave Dance is the second book in the Alex Craft series and I’m definitely enjoying myself on this one. So far, I’m impressed enough to keep reading. Again, there’s no reinventing of the wheel, but the elements of Urban Fantasy are all well handled and the plot keeps ticking along at a very quick pace. In this book, Alex is asked to investigate a foot, or rather several feet, which has turned up after a flood. And then the plot takes off we follow breathlessly […]
Never too Short for a Stormtrooper
The Princess Diarist was not as hard to read, as I was afraid it was going to be, even after the death of Carrie Fisher. I’m not quite sure what I was expecting, but I thought this rumination on Princess Leia and how that character, and the filming of Star Wars, changed her life was interesting. The only other thing I’ve read by Carrie Fisher is an article she wrote lambasting the gold bikini, which I liked, but this collection of memories around Star Wars […]
