Ascension by S.T. GibsonI'm beginning to whittle away at my July ARCs since I got a bit excited and ended up with a bunch of books. In my defense, July is heavy with exciting new releases that I couldn't resist including S.T. Gibson's latest! I'm enjoying this so far - Rhys, Moira, and David are... Continue Reading →
The Enemy's Daughter by Melissa PoettI don't usually pick up YA fantasy/romantasy anymore, but I do like a Tristan and Isolde retelling. This is set in a dystopian world after the fall of modern society which was unexpected but interesting. Entreat Me by Grace DravenThis is a story inspired by Beauty and the Beast and...

The Nightshade God by Hannah WhittenTime to wrap up another series! Hannah Whitten writes some fantastic stories and I think The Nightshade God will prove to be an excellent ending to the Nightshade Crown trilogy. I'm nearly halfway through despite numerous distractions since picking it up. I'm also still working my way through the audiobook... Continue Reading →
The Eye of the Bedlam Bride by Matt DinnimanI'm continuing on with the Dungeon Crawler Carl series and hoping to get The Eye of the Bedlam Bride wrapped up and reviewed in time for the May 13 release date. This one clocks in at 832 pages, so it's taken me a little while to make... Continue Reading →
This Monster of Mine by Shalini AbeysekaraI've really been looking forward to reading this and I actually purchased the ebook full price which I basically never do. Let me tell ya, it starts a whole lot darker than I would have ever guessed and it has me hooked. Death Stake by Andrew MayneIt's been awhile since... Continue Reading →
Once Was Willem by M.R. CareyI need something different this week, so now that I'm finished (or finishing up) two books that lean more toward the humorous I think I'll check out Once Was Willem. This is a shorter novel about a person who comes back from the dead to save a small village. I've... Continue Reading →
The Butcher's Masquerade by Matt DinnimanIt's once again time for a new DCC installment! I'm really looking forward to this one after the events that occurred at the end of The Gate of the Feral Gods. The story has always moved at breakneck speed, but I think the overall plot is finally solidifying into something... Continue Reading →
The Raven Scholar by Antonia HodgsonI featured this last week as well, but I didn't get started on reading it until Friday. I think it's going to be a fascinating political fantasy, though it is a little slow to get started! I've also made decent progress on The Fury of the Gods (finally!) and the... Continue Reading →
Advocate by Daniel M. FordI'm looking forward to returning to this series, especially with such a drastic change of setting in store for the third book. This installment brings Aelis back to her home city where she must clear her advisor's name of murder. The Raven Scholar by Antonia HodgsonI'm not sure my reading this... Continue Reading →
The Bane Witch by Ava MorgynI really couldn't resist such an appealing cover (mushrooms and flowers!) and the synopsis for The Bane Witch was definitely appealing. This follows Piers, a woman with a suspicious body count who has faked her own death to escape her marriage and then finds out she's from a long line... Continue Reading →
