The Library of the Dead by T.L. HuchuI am LOVING this book so far! I picked it up over the weekend and have already devoured a few hundred pages. The setting is interesting - it seems a little post-apocalyptic almost? Something big clearly happened in the past but it's only been referred to vaguely so... Continue Reading →
The Coward by Stephen AryanI love the premise for this AND it's my first Stephen Aryan novel! Basically, what if the guy lauded as a hero just got lucky and beat the bad guy... and now there's a new bad guy that everyone wants him to dispose of. I can't wait to check it out... Continue Reading →
Sirgrus Blackmane Demihuman Gumshoe and the Dark-Elf by William Schlichter A Dwarven detective sets out to investigate the murder of his agency partner and gets involved in some Shady Stuff. This is a relatively short yet intriguing book that I can't wait to start this week. I'm all about those fantasy mystery hybrids!
The Broken God by Gareth HanrahanYay! The finished copy is finally in my hands! I've been getting a little sick of reading everything on my phone (even if it is convenient) and it's great to have a few hardcopies of books to pick up. This is one of my most anticipated sequels of 2021 (feel... Continue Reading →
A Master of Djinn by P. Djèlí ClarkI've really been looking forward to jumping into this book and I've seen a couple good early reviews! This is a mystery set in a magical, early 1900's Cairo. I've really been on a roll lately with the fantasy/mystery crossovers and I don't see why I should stop... Continue Reading →
Project Hail Mary by Andy WeirOH YEAH MORE SPACE MURDER. I've been reading a ton of murder mystery or murdery SFF books lately, which has been entirely okay. I'm not ready to give up on that particular sub-genre yet and I'm excited to see how this one plays out. Rather than just saving himself, the... Continue Reading →
The Ivies by Alexa DonneI think I'll check this out next. I could use something a little lighter than what I've been reading and this should be perfect, even if it does involve the cutthroat world of Ivy League admissions! Early ratings are pretty good and I (tentatively) have a good feeling about this one.... Continue Reading →
The Shadow of the Gods by John GwynneIt's high time I check this out since I'm now all caught up on April releases! I've seen nothing but glowing praise for this book and can't wait to see what all the fuss is about. I mean, hopefully there will actually be dragons, but even if there... Continue Reading →
Swordheart by T. KingfisherI picked this up after seeing a few glowing reviews around and I love it already! I'm only ~1 hour in to the audiobook but it's already hilarious and refreshingly interesting! The Queen of Izmoroz by Jon SkovronI just can't resist these books with their gorgeous covers! The story isn't bad either,... Continue Reading →
Fortress of Magi by Mirah BolenderYAY! Another trilogy is wrapping up and I can't wait to see how the story plays out. I'm still holding out hope that a beloved character will somehow be resurrected to save the day now that the end of Amicae is nigh. I don't think it's going to happen, but... Continue Reading →
