Kiss of Snow by Nalini Singh

by Leave a Comment

CBR Bingo: Cold I’ve been tearing through Nalini Singh’s Psy Changeling novels. Kiss of Snow is the tenth book in the original series. Using this for the “Cold” square due to “Snow” in the title. But also down to the cold nature of the Psy in this world. I highly recommend you read the other nine books before this one. The tension between the love interests has been building across multiple books. So many fans say this is their favorite one. The hype level was […]

An unintentional Mercy Thompson reading binge.

Frost Burned by Patricia Briggs

by Leave a Comment

CBR Bingo: Series I usually take my time with my urban fantasy series. I like to savor them and read a few worlds at a time. To not let the reviews pile up (again), I usually read one or two books in a row. Not this go round. I’ve read five in a row for the OG Mercy Thompson series by Patricia Briggs. I’ve also fallen in love with the first three books in the spin-off Alpha & Omega series. Once I got going, it […]

Compulsively readable take on fated mates

The Tyrant Alpha's Rejected Mate by Cate C. Wells

by 2 Comments

CBR14Bingo – Rec’d: Rec’d by a friend who had to convince me that, no, it was not actually as bad as the title sounded (and y’all know the stuff I’ve read) I don’t like bully romances and my track record with the fated mates trope is spotty at best. But after hearing a few trusted friends raving about this book, I gave it a try, and wow, am I glad I did. After assuming control of the Quarry Pack at a young age, Killian has […]

Hickey jokes, messy eating, and bubble baths.

Fangs by Sarah Andersen

by Leave a Comment

There have been several coincidences lately. The most recent is I just found my Sarah’s Scribbles books by Sarah Andersen, then a few days later I found Fangs by them. Now that might not seem like a big deal, but I had not even thought about Andersen’s books in months (though I do have her weekly planner), and here I am getting bombarded by their wonderful work. I have not felt well for a few days (just the “summer blues” not due to sickness), but […]

Love, Ghosts and Werewolves

Blackwater by Jeannette Arroyo and Ren Graham

by Leave a Comment

I found a way to read Blackwater by Jeannette Arroyo and Ren Graham online. Now, I will tell you, buy the book in July instead of doing this. I mean, I read the book that way and still plan on purchasing a copy. Not only do you support an author/illustrator this way, but you will also want to read this book wherever you are. And if you have no service for phone or tablet or whatever kids read on these days, well old school is […]

Pretty Girls Will Rip Your Heart Out

Squad by Maggie Tokuda-Hall

by 2 Comments

Squad was part of my holiday gift exchange last year. I was tempted to sink my teeth into it right away, but things just got in the way. I started it about a week or so ago, and while I cannot say it is the first graphic novel that took me that long (or longer) to read, it was one that really took some time. This is not necessarily because it was OMG SO GOOD! Or even “deep and thoughtful” but because it is paced […]
