Fool's Assassin (The Fitz & The Fool Trilogy #1) by Robin Hobb. I received a free Advanced Reader Copy of this book for review from NetGalley. Publication date is August 12th. First, if you are reading this review and somehow haven't read the books that lead up to it...
Series to Read While Waiting for GRRM’s Next Book
If you're a Game of Thrones/Song of Ice & Fire fan, you're in a bit of a tough spot right now. It's the break between TV seasons, and the next book in the series is nowhere in sight. If you're waiting for the next book in particular, you likely have more than enough...
Book Review: Archon
Archon (The Books of Raziel #1) by Sabrina Benulis. Archon is book one in a series about Angela Mathers, a troubled young woman who dreams of angels and is apparently unkillable (she knows, she's tried). The book starts as she's released from a mental institution and...
Book Review: Dark Paradise
Dark Paradise (#1) by Angie Sandro. I received a free copy of this book for review from NetGalley. If you're in the mood for a New Adult murder mystery romance with ghosts and Louisiana swampland ambiance, you might want to give this book a whirl. It's the story of...

Book Review: Hidden
Hidden (Dragonlands #1) by Megg Jensen. I received a free copy of this book for review from NetGalley. Oh, where to start with this one... How about the cover? You'll notice there's a dragon on it, and that the series is called Dragonlands, so it should be no surprise...
Book Review: The Steady Running of the Hour
The Steady Running of the Hour by Justin Go. This is a book I added to my TBR pile because of Casee Marie's fabulous Notable New Releases series (probably the biggest contributor to my ever-expanding TBR pile, by the by). It's the story of Tristan, a modern-day...
Book Review: Longbourn
Longbourn by Jo Baker. If Pride & Prejudice was turned into Upstairs/Downstairs or Downton Abbey, this would be the Downstairs portion. It's the story of the servants that we just get mere glimpses of in Austen's original, given their own histories and lives and...
Big Blogiversary Book Giveaway!
Today this little space on the web turns 3 years old. It simultaneously seems like longer and yet not that long. I've been through a slight name change and several blog themes. I've tried and then abandoned sponsorships and certain topics/series. Writing a blog is a...
