I chose this series because it is my favorite genre – urban fantasy and one of my favorite series. I wanted a series with 8-12 books. These are mostly available at both of my libraries, in both ebook and audio formats. Some of the other series I considered were less available at libraries, not […]
I have enjoyed every book in Penny Reid’s Winston Brothers series. Now we are down to Billy. Next to Cletus, he is my heartbreaker. Although the book before this was Beard With Me which was Scarlet and Billy’s early high school years, ending with her leaving town at age 14.. Beard Necessities begins 20 years […]
Lethal Redemption is the second book of the Steele Ops series and it is exactly what I hoped would be different than the first book, Deadly Obsession. I got more of the action and law enforcement work and a bit less of the romance. I enjoyed being back in the overall world with the characters […]
This is a new feature I developed where each month we will look at our favorite – the best – series in a genre. The genre here, by my definition, is a story where the story is somehow related to Sherlock Holmes. These are the ones which came to mind. I enjoyed some more than […]
I was sent Life and Limb by the publisher in print, then requested the eARC since that is easier for me to read. The blurb noted it as a modern western fantasy series. I liked the sound of it and the mythology. However, it wasn’t clear to me that it is about angels versus demons […]

We have come to the last published book, Fallen, and the end of the Read-along. I can’t express enough how glad I am to have chosen this Alex Verus series. I managed, even with a schedule, to get them all at the library and they were available in ebook and audio. I feel grateful that […]
Holy crap! The depth and richness of Shattered Bonds is amazing. I’ve long been a fan of the Jane Yellowrock series. I loved this and was totally engrossed even when exhausted. I highly recommend this book and the series, which does need to be read in order (like most urban fantasy). I had some feelings about […]
This is a new feature I developed where each month we will look at our favorite – the best – series in a genre. The genre here, by my definition, is a story where the primary characters work with ghosts. These are the ones which came to mind which I enjoyed. Since I haven’t read […]
I have enjoyed every book in Penny Reid’s Winston Brothers series. Now we are down to Billy. Next to Cletus, he is my heartbreaker. Beard With Me is a very full book, prequel to the series. This is a long book but the pages flew by. The chapters alternate between Billy and Scarlet. Billy is […]
