For you and your Scamp (or Hector)

Scamp by Anden Wilder

December 20, 2024 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Scamp and Hector live in a two cat house in Anden Wilder’s Scamp. One is black and one is pink. However, one day Scamp does something she has never done before. She stands up. Both are sure cats do not stand on two feet or legs. The whole day is one thing after the other to show how Scamp is a “bad cat” (she uses a spoon, stands more than once, she even enjoys her bath). However, after a nap, Scamp realizes Hector is missing […]

“Never f*** anyone you would be upset having to kill, that’s my new motto.”

How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying (Dark Lord Davi, #1) by Django Wexler

December 19, 2024 by narfna 3 Comments

Firstly, you’re either going to like the tone and style this is written in, or you’re going to bounce right off it. I’ve seen a lot of people complaining about how vulgar and horny Davi is, and blaming it on a man writing a woman. Having read from this author before and seen how he can write women, and also, the other women in this book, I’m gonna vote no on that one. Women can be horny and vulgar! You might not like that, and […]

Magical found families are my cat nip

The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna

December 19, 2024 by teresaelectro Leave a Comment

After months of work stress, The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches was exactly what I needed. This cozy fantasy romance introduces us to Mika Moon, an orphaned witch living in the UK. She meets every quarter in secret places with fellow witches of Britain. They’re not allowed to talk to each other except at these meetings, lest they be discovered and persecuted. Primrose, Mika’s guardian, is the de facto head of the witches who enforces these rules for the greater good. Much to Primrose’s […]

Return to Massacre Manor

Apprentice To The Villain by Hannah Nicole Maehrer

December 18, 2024 by finnyfinfinn 4 Comments

I ended last year’s Cannonball with Assistant to the Villain so I think it’s quite appropriate that my hold for the second book in this fabulous series came in just in time for this one. I’ll try to keep it as non-spoilery as possible but get ready for more wacky hijinks! Now having said that the first book did end on a big ol cliffhanger that really almost killed me having to wait a whole year to find out what happens. You’ll be pleased to […]

Prince of Fools: The Red Queen's War #1 by Mark Lawrence

December 18, 2024 by carmelpie Leave a Comment

Cowards divide into two broad groups. Those paralysed by their fear, and those galvanized by it. ― Mark Lawrence, Prince of Fools I’ve always felt that the placement of a man’s testicles is an eloquent argument against intelligent design. ― Mark Lawrence, Prince of Fools Prince Jalan is the third son of the third son of the queen of Red March. Despite being a long way off from the path of succession, he’s successfully used his title of prince to maximum effectiveness. He’s a gambler, […]
