I enjoy this author and narrator so it was easy to choose The Unicorn Hunters. I have read some other stories about Anne of Brittany and the typical horrible choices she had, as most women of this era. Even daughters of kings end up as property and breeding to produce heirs. So the start was […]
I needed to figure out a way to start reading series where I am not current or the series is finished but haven’t read them yet. So it’s a way to commit myself to read my backlist, particularly series. I’ve been wanting to read the DI Kim Stone for a long time. The […]
I loved Suzanne Palmer‘s Finder Chronicles so I was eager to read her newest work. Ode to the Half-Broken is a dystopian story about a sentient robot, Be. It didn’t feel too similar to Becky Chamber‘s books which is good for me because I didn’t enjoy those too much. I found the pace and technology […]
The Alchemist and an Amaretto was an absolutely great listen for me. Every time I return to this world I’m reminded why these books are so addictive. The blend of magic, action, humor, and character development was perfectly balanced, and I was hooked from beginning to end. I am also completely invested in Cris […]
I love these standalone sorts of life stories Nora Roberts is writing. They feature strong women who face hardships or decisions and build cozy lives for themselves with their own tastes and needs.  Once they have their own happiness, friends and place, they end up falling in love. Arden is a writer. In the beginning, […]
Surprisingly the job description for a demon and a junior employee at a start up firm have a lot in common. They both try to make cold calls and talk people out of something they might not want give up for the promise of something better. They both have demanding bosses and quotas to meet. […]
I have not always been a fan of time travel but this author has two series where it is an element and I love them. A Rip Through Time series is where a modern day police detective ends up 150 years earlier. So the story is primarily set historically. I would read this story in order […]
Dead Over Heels begins a after a gap of a year or two since the events of The Julius House and has a settled tone. Roe and Martin are adjusting to married life, not always easily, but getting on well. Then a body falls from the sky and a new murder mystery […]
The Shippers has a cruise ship setting. JoJo is the maid of honor for her sister’s wedding. I’m not going to be spoilery here but even if you look at the blurb, everything is about JoJo and her childhood best friend, Cooper. Cooper who she hasn’t seen for 4 years because he ghosted her and […]
Murderbot Diaries series is one I started reading after getting a free ebook of All Systems Red. I was so hooked and have continued reading over the years.  I just adore the grumpy Murderbot who wants to be left alone to watch its shows. The straightforward comments on its own situation is fabulous and funny. […]
