Book Reviews + More
High Times in the Low Parliament by Kelly RobsonThis sounds like a fun little novella that I can easily read in one or two sittings. The reviews are all over the place, so I'm tempering expectations but I think it'll be interesting. The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy by Megan BannenI am sooo looking forward... Continue Reading →
Wild is the Witch by Rachel GriffinGetting a jump start on all those August releases I requested (WHY DO I DO THIS??) It sounds like a really fun, quick read perfect for binging in a few afternoons!! The Dreadful Tale of Prosper Redding by Alexandra BrackenI didn't exactly realize this was middle grade when I... Continue Reading →
I have soooo not had much luck with books this month! I've DNF'd two books, one of which was one of my most anticipated releases of 2022 and the other just couldn't hold my interest. I'm having better luck with my current read of the week, which I'm already 40% through. Hopefully this slump/reading funk... Continue Reading →
The First Binding by R.R. VirdiThis is possibly one of the most exciting releases of the year and I couldn't wait to read it any longer! I threw all my other scheduled reads to the side in favor of checking this out. I'm only about 100 pages in (out of 832) so I'm still getting... Continue Reading →
The Book of Gothel by Mary McMyneSo, I'm 40% (ish) into this and it's good, but kinda sad. Also, the prologue totally threw me off! Paladin's Grace by T. KingfisherNow this I am totally loving. It's hilarious! A perfumer, a spy, and an ex-paladin are investigating an assassination attempt.
Upgrade by Blake CrouchI'm always down for a new thriller from Blake Crouch. They're always strange and a little disturbing, however rather than time travel we have a human with a hacked genome this time around. Second Hand Curses by Drew HayesI've really been plodding so slowly through audiobooks lately, but I'm expecting to finish... Continue Reading →
Flames of Mira by Clay HarmonI've had this on my TBR for awhile now and since the release date is approaching and I was in the mood for an epic fantasy chonk I decided it was finally time! I love the contrasting elements - underground volcanoes covered in fields of ice and the pseudo-alchemical creation... Continue Reading →
Locklands by Robert Jackson BennettWow, so I'm maybe 10% into the book as I type this and what a time skip! I'm honestly not sure what to expect from this, but I hope it's a satisfying conclusion to the trilogy. I'm also still working my way through Of Darkness and Light by Ryan Cahill, which...

The Martyr by Anthony RyanAnother highly anticipated sequel for the year. Alwyn Scribe has gone from brigand to spymaster and I'm curious to see if he rises or falls by the end of this installment. I am expecting some seriously fantastic action though! Of Darkness and Light by Ryan CahillI see what all the fuss... Continue Reading →
In the Shadow of Lightning by Brian McClellanOf course, when one of my favorite authors releases the first book in a new series I'm going to be completely thrilled and I'm also gonna go get my hands on an ARC if possible. I'm just a couple chapters in and I can already tell I'm in... Continue Reading →
