Bayou Moon is the second book in Ilona Andrews‘ The Edge series. I was excited to read it (again) because it’s William’s story and he — well, William’s been through a lot and I wanted him to find what he wanted in life. Of course, he’s a soldier, honed into a sharp blade and used […]

A Play of Heresy by Margaret Frazer #MargaretFrazer @sophiarose1816

Coventry- for the Corpus Christi festival and plays- is a bustling, energetic town where a missing spy and a murderer can be found. Margaret Frazer’s final Joliffe the Player mystery pulled out all the stops and delivered a medieval player’s world and town, intrigue, and a cunning mystery all in one. I was […]

🎧 The Wraith King by Juliette Cross @Juliette__Cross @troyduran @MegSylvan #PodiumAudio #LoveAudiobooks #KindleUnlimited @RobinBridgeFour‏

The Wraith King, the first book of the Rise of Northgall, is a romantasy that is more heavily invested in the romance than the fantasy. I think this is important to mention as I will let romances get away with some things that I would never let fantasy get away with. The Wraith King is sort […]

Star Cruise: Captain’s Prequel by Veronica Scott @veronicascott.bsky.social @vscotttheauthor @sophiarose1816

Through all the Star Cruise subseries books, regular side characters, Captain Gil Fleming and ship AI, Maeve, have been a large background presence in the stories- Maeve, in particular. Finally, we get their story and how it all started. Star Cruise: Captain’s Prequel is both a chronological prequel for the Star Cruise sub-series […]

Murderer’s Creek by Lavonne Griffin-Valade #LaVonneGriffin-Valade @severnhouse @severnhouse.bsky.social #KindleUnlimited @sophiarose1816

Last year, I followed a whim and read the first book in the series. I enjoyed trying a new to me author and wished to continue with the series. It took me a bit, but I finally got around to the next book. LaVonne Griffin-Valade writes with a very descriptive style for local setting, investigation […]

The Pets in Space series of anthologies have delivered some of my favorite sci-fi romantic adventures and introduced me to several series that are top reads for me. I adore how there is a theme of pets and a vast majority of sci-fi worlds and situations. Like with previous anthologies in the series, I’ll be […]
