The Nameless Restaurant is the first book in a in the Hidden Dishes series currently focused around a restaurant in Toronto that is so hidden by magic you basically have to stumble into, unless you are magical and just happen to know where it is. This reads half like a food blog and half like […]

WWII Britain on the Homefront is an intriguing setting for what seemed an atmospheric mystery involving a ghost, secrets, and forbidden love. I was glad for the chance to pick up this historical mystery by a new to me author and was prepared for a few chills and thrills. The prologue introduces a curious and […]
The Queen’s Price by Anne Bishop is the 12th book in The Black Jewels series. The original trilogy of this series is still my favorite, just be warned it probably includes just about any trigger you could possibly have.

I have enjoyed this Bishop Special Crime Unit series for a long time. Sometimes the stories feature long known members of the team and some are completely new characters. With well known characters, there is the advantage of already knowing them and having better developed characters who then further progress. With new ones, it makes […]
