House of Dusk by Deva Fagan
I like this story and the narrator did a great job, but had I re-read the blurb before starting the audio, I don't think I would've enjoyed it as much.4 Stars

Born of an Iron Storm by Anthony Ryan
was a slow read... Multiple characters over an extended timeline (a year or more?) More telling than showing. Doubt I'll read the next.

The Curse of Gods by Kate Dramis

The Good Vampire's Guide to Blood & Boyfriends by Jamie D'Amato

Voidwalker by S.A. MacLean

I read 31 Days of Spooky
for NetGalley's Camp badge as it was the only one on their limited selection that I could see myself trying to read... The short (telling) stories were ok, but more suitable for readers around ten or so.

Lord of Ruin by K.M. Enright
had a decent plot, but it was slow, but worse was the 'adult content'. I knew it was going to be there because it was in the first, but even though I skipped it, it made the story even slower. Mostly because of the chance of porn, I don't care to read the next book in the series.

All the Ash We Leave Behind by C. Robert Cargill
was a decent addition to the series, but I wish there had been more pages to add those layers the other books created!3 Stars

Highly recommend Fateless by Julie Kagawa
!! Action, adventure, and fantasy! Some violence, a little romantic interest, but suitable for readers 14+4 Stars!
Of Flame and Fury by Mikayla Bridge
is a cute, almost cozy YA story about racing phoenixes. There is romance, but no 'adult' situations and minor violence...3 Stars
