Interview with Author Claudie Arseneault
I’m thrilled to have Claudie Arseneault on the blog today because I so rarely am able to show all the love I want for this growing body of work. City of Strife is a new series coming out soon so I hope you jump on the hype train with me!
Many authors have overarching themes from book to book. For people who are already your fans, or would like to be, in what ways is your newest, City of Strife, like your other works?

Phaethon Review
[image error]Hackers, fae, and a new breed of corporate greed battle over the future of the human race….
Hacker couple Jack and Rosie crack technology, but the newest device, the Phaethon, isn’t like other phones. The parts are junk, yet it can do the impossible. Through gentle prodding and data theft, they learn it’s powered remotely…by a living creature.

Unburied Fables Releases Next Week!
Over the last week, two people commented on the title of Unburied Fables. Said that these stories are often left buried, or on the importance of having representation unearthed. I’m glad that some people have picked up on the meaning below the surface. Because this project has turned into something really personal. Or as personal a project with fifteen different collaborators can be.
I remember first talking about it, I was sitting on the floor upstairs in my underused office. It was after P...

Books That Inspire: The Legend Mirror Series
(A Guest Post BySaruuh Kelsey)
I’ve always been inspired by books one way or another, whether that was children’s stories when I was younger, or YA novels when I got older.

Two Reviews Tuesday
During May, Ace Book Club featured Rachel Sharp’s books and since it’s the last day in May I thought I’d bring you my review of the series so far!
This book is one of the realist apocalypse books I might ever have the pleasure of reading. It was at times refreshing, charming in it’s humor, and scary as a reader who is realizing along with Mab that we aren’t so ready for the end of the world. It was both encouraging to see a person react realistically to the world going to suck, and unnerving...
