The Devils by Joe AbercrombieThis book is burning a hole in my TBR, so I'm just going to go ahead and read it while I'm in the mood! I really tempted myself by reading the first few pages and I was intrigued enough that my ARC reading schedule can go to hell. Drumindor by Michael... Continue Reading →
The Scholar and the Last Faerie Door by H.G. ParrySet in a fictional 1920's England, it has magic, it has faeries, and it has a university setting. There's nothing about this that I shouldn't love and I'm looking forward to digging in on my long weekend! I haven't been hopping around the blogosphere lately due... Continue Reading →
This Girl's A Killer by Emma C. WellsI'm in the mood for something a little different and I think This Girl's A Killer fits that description. It's about a woman who is a pharmaceutical rep by day and a serial killer by night. This isn't quite like anything I've read before, so I'm actually quite... Continue Reading →
A Dark and Secret Magic by Wallis KinneyI am tentatively beginning this cozy, witchy fantasy this week. Its supposed to be very atmospheric and may have a romance plot as well! This sounds perfect because I'm ready for fall weather, which thus far has just been a tease. We Solve Murders by Richard OsmanI've had... Continue Reading →
The Dungeon Anarchist's Cookbook by Matt DinnimanI can't wait any longer and I'm mostly caught up on my September ARCs, so I'm jumping on in to Dungeon Crawler Carl #3.

Chosen by Benedict JackaIt's time to continue... Continue Reading →
The Gods Below by Andrea StewartI'm getting started on September ARCs now and first up is The Gods Below. This is a fascinating world full of different gods and follows two sisters who were separated a decade ago. Hakara has been mining magical gemstones in order to save up enough to return to where she... Continue Reading →
The Village Library Demon-Hunting Society by C.M. WaggonerI can't believe how utterly unputdownable this book is! I started it last night, with the intention of seeing if it grabbed me and well, 40% later, I can say yes it did grab me. It's cozy and has an older main character who has been helping solve... Continue Reading →
Long Live Evil by Sarah Rees BrennanNow that I've had a couple mood reads, it's time to wrap up my August ARCs! I've been looking forward to this one, as I've seen some positive reactions to the story and I love the synopsis. The Gathering by C.J. TudorI picked this up during a recent Audible...

The Secret History by Donna TarttHonestly, at 20% in, I don't quite know what to make of this book. The descriptions of Vermont and the gorgeous, crisp fall days are wonderful. The characters are a mixed bag and I don't quite like any of them at this point, even the narrator who's web of lies... Continue Reading →
