Unbound is the second book of the Archived series and needs to be read after The Archived or you will have no idea what is happening. It starts up at the end of the summer as Mac is getting ready for her first day of school. This has a solid conclusion for the story arc, […]
Victoria Schwab has a very creative mind and builds on some really interesting premises, like; what if there was a library of sorts for dead people, where the bodies/records are kept on shelves asleep and what if sometimes those bodies get up and try to get back out into the world? See, very interesting premise. […]
Another series in the The Seven Realms is complete and we have fallen in love with another generation of its characters, journeying along with them against foes – both new and old, in their quest to preserve the Gray Wolf Line and way of life in the Fells. I will not add too many details […]
Today’s friend is Brandee from Unconventional Bookworms. I’ve loved getting to know her through books and this wonderful community. We sort of met in passing at the RT Convention in Atlanta, May 2016, since I spent all my time with Melanie and they roomed together. I look forward to getting to know […]

King of Scars is the first book in a new Nikolai Duology by Leigh Bardugo set in the Grishaverse world. I’ve read most of the books in this series apart from Language of Thorns and even though this is a new book in a series and you could read it without having read the other […]
When I happen upon a steampunk novel with mainstream popularity, I get very excited. Maybe it’s my love of historical romance and fantasy that draws me to stories where steam power was not eclipsed by the combustion engine, or maybe I just like the costumes. It was with a sense of impending adventure I began […]
For some reason, I thought Thunderhead was the sequel to Scythe and it was the end of the Arc of a Scythe series. After I finished reading, I went to look because, man, it can NOT end there. I wouldn’t call it a cliffhanger but there is so much more I want to know. I […]
Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor is a vibrant, captivating story about mortals with lives touched by the gods and the fallout of those encounters. While it is characterized as YA, I feel it is a fantasy novel for all ages to enjoy. Lazlo is a dreamer. He bears the name given by all orphans, […]
