I have an event this weekend, which necessitated a steampunk costume. I had an enormous amount of fun putting together a steampunk lepidopterist outfit, inspired by one of my favorite heroines, Veronica Speedwell. In a previous review, I claimed that I think my most anticipated book every year is latest installment of the Veronica Speedwell […]
I didn’t know much about Witch Season before reading it. So the setup is our main character is Katherine. She was an unsettled witch. That is when a witch from non-magical parents gets power, usually in their teens and blows up with the magic. It’s called a snap and often destroys property and even kills […]

At first I thought perhaps I was not smart enough to understand this story. I have wanted to read this author for awhile. After I got into the characters and plot though, I was fine. It is detailed with quite a few characters and groups so I need to focus more and multitask less. In […]
Wow, that was INTENSE!!! Like seriously, even though as a reader I generally have an expectation of my level of anxiety, and I end up convincing myself that things’ll be okay, there were multiple times in this book where I honestly had NO IDEA how Robin and Zylas were going to survive. My poor […]
