Perilous Times has everything. Dragons, witches, Knights, climate change, corruption, people rising from the dead, lots of peril, jokes, etc. It's a good time Knights of the Roundtable style adventure with a powerful message.

The Woman in the Library offers two of my favorite things to read about- a book about books and the writing process. It's an interesting read with a good idea but it just didn't work for me in the end. But if you are interested in books about books or meta mystery writing well I'd... Continue Reading →
I tried reading Antonia Fraser's biography of Mary Queen of Scots back when the movie came out (naturally) but 50+ some pages in and 12,000 Mary's later I DNF'ed it.

The comic is called BRZRKR and is about the violent immortal son of a war God trying to make... Continue Reading →
Mayhem By: Estelle Laure This book is being pitched as a YA feminist mash-up of The Lost Boys meets The Craft- and the minute I saw that I knew I wanted to read it! A thousand thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for providing a free copy as part of the book tour. It's 1987... Continue Reading →
 Do you guys sanitize your books? Honestly until recently it's not something that ever crossed my mind. And I say that as someone whose always been a germaphobe. When this started I noticed people talking about it for the first time which naturally made me look at my TBR pile with worry. I've bought nothing... Continue Reading →
The Girl the Sea Gave Back By: Adrienne Young Boy you'd think surviving being cast out to sea as a child would be the most dramatic thing in a girl's life wouldn't you? Not poor Tova who is found and brought up by a distrustful clan of warriors who only want to use her for... Continue Reading →
