Educating the Platypus by Charlie Richards

October 31, 2020 by LittlePlat 2 Comments

Look, I’m going to admit right off that bat the whole genre of shape-shifter romance is completely alien to me. I’m not the broadest reader of romance in the first place and this is a niche that I have not really turned my eyes towards. But then a certain other Cannonballer—who knows who they are and can identify themselves if they want—sent me a picture of this book’s cover, and I’ll be damned if I wasn’t at least going to have a peek to see […]

“I am not all human women… you are what all women fear in this world”

March 9, 2017 by faintingviolet Leave a Comment

In my reading habits, I do not read too much fantasy. I have never been a fan of high fantasy, those works that are set in an alternate world. I struggled with The Hobbit for years before finally managing to get through the audio book last year, for example.

The Devourers, our […]
