Read-along & #Giveaway: Hammered by Kevin Hearne @KevinHearne @luckylukeekul @DelReyBooks #BrillianceAudio @jentwimom227 #Read-along #GIVEAWAY #LoveAudiobooks

Having read the entire Iron Druid Chronicles before, this is my second time listening to Hammered. While I don’t give away any spoilers, I will note that my feelings about this one were definitely altered having listened to it and the entire series previously. That said, I actually enjoyed Hammered more this time around. Making good on his promise […]

🎧 Unmask Alice: LSD, Satanic Panic, and the Imposter Behind the World’s Most Notorious Diaries by Rick Emerson @GabraZackman @RickEmerson @BenBellaBooks @AudiobookMel #LoveAudiobooks

Trigger Warnings: suicide, drug use, satanism, AIDS I remember reading Go Ask Alice by Anonymous, the “real” diary of a teenage girl in the seventies who got into drugs, when I was a kid. I can’t remember how old I was, but I remember reading it. I also read Jay’s Journal, a boy’s journal where […]

🎧 The Silva Mind Control Method by Jose Silva, Philip Miele #JoseSilva @garytiedemann @ZacAlemanVO @SimonAudio #LoveAudiobooks @SnyderBridge4

This is going to be a little different than most of the reviews I do as I’ve really stepped out of my normal reading to explore some books on manifestation, mental awareness and meditation. I’ve read a few now and all of them have at one point mentioned the Silva Mind Control method. I think […]

Star Cruise Star Song by Veronica Scott @vscotttheauthor @sophiarose1816

Back in space with my favorite Star Cruise ship and the crew for a new ship-board adventure! I was pleasantly surprised when this new installment in The Sectors: Star Cruise sub-series released. It came along right when I was nearly finished reading through the series and ready for a new installment in the series. I […]

🎧 The Heretic Royal by G.A. Aiken #GAAiken #MiaBarron @recordedbooks @AudiobookMel #LoveAudiobooks

This is the third book in the Scarred Earth Saga. The series has a wonderful overarching story arc with two sisters fighting for a kingdom. One sister, Beatrix, is soulless and hungry for power and doesn’t matter what it takes to get that power. Keeley, on the other hand, is a very nice woman who […]

🎧 A House with Good Bones by T. Kingfisher @UrsulaV @maryrobinette @MacmillanAudio #LoveAudiobooks @SnyderBridge4

T. Kingfisher is a favorite author of mine, but I primarily read her fantasy. A House With Good Bones is more horror-lite and southern gothic. It was both funny and a little bit creepy, until it was a lot a bit creepy. After this book, I will never look at vultures and roses in the […]

Through a Darkening Glass by RS Maxwell #RSMaxwell #ThriftyThursday @KindleUnlimited🎧 @sophiarose1816

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 […]

What a ride! Hexed by Kevin Hearne is the second adventure in The Iron Druid Chronicles which follows Atticus O’Sullivan, the last iron druid, as he attempts to live a peaceful life in the hills of Arizona. This book picks up not long after the events of book one, Hounded, so there may be some minor spoilers to that […]
