Book Review: Shifty Business by Olivia Hardin
My overall rating for this book is a four. I thought it had great potential, and it was intriguing and interesting, but not enough to classify it as one of my favorite books ever.

It’s actually quite a good book, with a consistent, fast plot and memorable characters with distinct personalities. Maybe I would’ve liked it even more if I’d read the two previous installm...

Book Review: A Game of Cat and Mouse by Astrid Cielo
I’m not the biggest fan of shapeshifters. I can’t really explain why. I’ve always preferred vampires, witches, demons and even fallen angels above shifters. Maybe because I prefer the slick type of predators, the ones that are sophisticated and mysterious and you wouldn’t expect they’re a heartless monster in disguise. But for werewolves and other types of shapeshifters, I always thought they were a bit more…crude powers. Less brains. I know that’s a bit of a discriminatory viewpoint toward o...
