Book Review: The Opal Blade by Kristy Nicolle I adored Kristy Nicolle’s Something Blue, but The Opal Blade has risen to the top of my favorites. And it took maybe two chapters. I don’t normally like urban fantasy, but this novel only starts as such before becoming a real dark fantasy novel. I’ll try to…
Book Review: Rize Keer by L.M. Fili This book review of Rize Keer: Blind In Flames by L.M. Fili is one I have delayed for a bit, mostly because I am a mood reader. But also because this experience taught me that if someone gifts me their book from the U.K., I need to use…
Book Review: The Devil’s Night series by Penelope Douglas The stalking of Penelope Douglas’ backlist continues! After getting all disappointed with the Fall Away series, I’m happy to say I haven’t entirely given up. What I’ve read next is still not quite ‘it’… but there are elements I want to talk about in this book…
Book Review: The Fall Away series by Penelope Douglas After falling in love with Penelope Douglas’ Birthday Girl, I gave this author’s backlist a try. And this is the story of how I ended up reading her first published series… Unfortunately, this book review of the Fall Away series isn’t exactly positive. I wish I…
Book Review: Haelend’s Ballad by Ian V. Conrey This book review of Haelend’s Ballad by Ian V. Conrey is much delayed, but I want it to do the book justice. Haelend’s Ballad is a hefty book, one that took me a while to finish. (Not only because of its length, though). Despite that, the time…
Book Review: Misconduct by Penelope Douglas This might be the last book review featuring a novel by Penelope Douglas for this year. I say “might,” because I sure enjoy reading her most of her work. But I also have other reviews waiting for me. This book review of Misconduct is mostly positive, as it is…
Book Review: Punk 57 by Penelope Douglas This book review of Punk 57 is delayed, but for the life of me, I couldn’t decide what rating would be right for this book. Punk 57 by Penelope Douglas is a contemporary romance taking place in a high school setting, and although it’s way out of my…
Book Review: I Am Arcana This book review features a debut poetry collection, I Am Arcana by Kristy Nicolle. I am already a fan of this author, and I always thought her writing was poetic. So when I learned she had a poetry collection coming out, I was excited and signed up for an ARC…
Book Review: Birthday Girl by Penelope Douglas This book pleasantly surprised me! It was such a refresher, such a quick, fun read. I found the excerpt at the end of Credence, and since I wanted to give the author a second chance, I went for it. I didn’t regret it one bit. My book review…
Book Review: Credence by Penelope Douglas While reading, I thought by book review of Credence would be a most positive one. Unfortunately, as the story continued, I had many problems with it. I don’t know Penelope Douglas, I didn’t even know Credence was categorized as romance, but it’s not the genre that actually caused problems….
