Quickie Book Review – Passion Potion by Mary Beth Daniels
Passion Potion by Mary Beth Daniels My rating: 4 of 5 stars I rather enjoyed this book. It was fresh, inventive and didn’t take itself too seriously. Other than a few vague references to some steamy stuff (and one actually blazing-hot scene)the rest of this novel felt light and YA-ish. I was hooked into the […]

Hot New Release – We Are Made of Stardust (Peaches Monroe #1) by Mimi Strong
Check out this hot new release by Bestselling author Mimi Strong! I’ve seen Mimi around a few writer’s boards and on Facebook, etc. and she’s such a fabulous person. That, and a kick-ass writer too! Blurb: She’s a sassy bookstore manager, he’s a famous actor. This Notting Hill-inspired New Adult romance is outrageous, funny, […]

Along Came a Spider by Kate SeRine My rating: 5 of 5 stars This book doesn’t come out until the first of August, but I’m likely to forget to review it then, so I’ll do it now! I really like the world-building and the characters in this novel. The Tales (that’s fairy tale folk, for […]

Book Review – Foresaken by the Others by Jess Haines
Forsaken by the Others by Jess Haines My rating: 4 of 5 stars Like an idiot, I accepted this ARC (via NetGalley) even though I haven’t read any of the other books. Because of that, this book took me a while to get into since I couldn’t keep the cast of characters or their importance […]

Book Review – How Beauty Met the Beast by Jax Garren
How Beauty Met the Beast by Jax Garren My rating: 4 of 5 stars I’ll have to start this review with an admission… I just realized that I’ve never read a steam punk novel. (I know, I know. I deserve to be drawn and quartered.) With that said, I think this was a good novel […]

Quickie Book Review – Soul Stripper by Katana Collins
Soul Stripper by Katana Collins My rating: 4 of 5 stars I’m not sure how to label this one– part paranormal suspense, part steamy romance, with a smidgen of historical romance is the best way I can think to describe it. The characters are super-complex and most are not-quite what they seem, which kept me […]

Book Review – Dark Child (Omnibus/ Full Novel) by Adina West
Dark Child by Adina West My rating: 5 of 5 stars Overall, a well-paced, cleanly written paranormal/ fantasy with all sorts of “other-worldy” goodness. I actually started reading the first installments of this (Episode One) before I realized there was an omnibus (i.e.full novel) edition. As soon as I finished reading the first installment, I […]

Quickie Book Review- Dark Child (Episode One) by Adina West
Dark Child: Episode 1 by Adina West My rating: 3 of 5 stars I started reading this, then switched over to the omnibus edition once I finished the first Episode. This episode has some interesting bits, and a lot of foreshadowing, but I didn’t really get sucked into the story until the very end. Now, […]
