Do you mind giving me notice when the Apocalypse is about to hit? I need to arrange for a babysitter. Thanks!

Swashbucklers by Dan Hanks

November 10, 2021 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Yes, there are a lot of plot point holes and flowing issues and missing information in Dan Hanks novel, Swashbucklers. But (pause) I do not care. This was a funny, easy to read, but need to give a bit of attention to, warped ride. Part fantasy, part adventure, part horror, and a lot of humor cover the pages of this novel. Our hero (question mark) Cisco comes back to his hometown 30-odd years after that Halloween and the “gas leak” which he knows was not […]

Her Wolf in the Wild

“Baby, we’re the monsters that go bump in the night. You don’t have to be apologizing to us.”

Her Wolf in the Wild by Rien Gray

October 25, 2021 by llamareadsbooks Leave a Comment

I’m going to be honest: I’m not a big fan of motorcycle club romances. But when I saw this was sapphic werewolf fated-mates MC romance? Sold! When Christiana’s car breaks down on a long desert highway while running from her abusive cop boyfriend, Micah stops to pick her up, and then, inexplicably, offers to let her stay with her motorcycle club while she gets back on her feet. Despite all the reasons she shouldn’t stay with a stranger, Christiana feels drawn to Micah and can’t […]

Living that Summer Dream

Summer Spirit by Elizabeth Holleville

October 13, 2021 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Summer Spirit looked out from the top shelf. I am not sure how I saw it as my little over 5-foot frame does not usually see that far above my head! But once you learn the story, maybe you will think some supernatural events took place, making my eyes be drawn upwards. Or not. After all, ghosts are not real. No matter what Elizabeth Holleville says in their young adult graphic novel. Louise, her sister, and their cousins spend part of the summer with their […]

Morning Glory Milking Farm

Very sweet for something that has so much to do with, er, milking

Morning Glory Milking Farm by C.M. Nascosta

September 25, 2021 by llamareadsbooks 3 Comments

CBR13Bingo: Rec’d by katie71483 I know I’m late to the party as literally everyone was talking about this last month, but, wow, this book! That cover does not do it justice. I mean, yes, there’s lots of milking of giant monster cocks, but there’s also millennial job angst, a sweet relationship buildup, and lots of coffee. Violet is pretty much your typical millennial: overeducated, underemployed and drowning in student loan debt. And it’s not like living in the city is cheap, either! Just as it […]

I’ve “stumbled into a mystic portal where everything was weirder and more interesting and infinitely better”

Witch Please by Ann Aguirre

September 23, 2021 by llamareadsbooks Leave a Comment

CBR13Bingo: Free – I got this as an ARC Yes, the book is just as sweet and adorable as the cover suggests. At one point, Titus feels like he’s “stumbled into a mystic portal where everything was weirder and more interesting and infinitely better” which honestly is a pretty good description of how I felt reading this book. Danica and her cousin Clem manage a repair shop called Fix-It Witches in a small midwestern town. Their secret? They are actually mechanically-inclined witches who use their magic to […]

The Friend Contract

“I am not asking a stranger, I’m asking my best friend.”

The Friend Contract by Dria Andersen

June 17, 2021 by llamareadsbooks Leave a Comment

I am always up for a best-friends-to-lovers fake relationship book. Add it that it’s between two Black shifters, one a panther and one a bear, and I was all in. Though this is the first in the Hamilton Brothers series, twin bear shifters, there’s another book that takes place before it that talks about how the panthers ended up in Florida. There was enough explanation that I was able to get the gist of what had happened, but I would probably recommend reading Chasing Savannah, about […]
