This book. This one is something special. I learned about Craving Flight via the BDSM group on Goodreads – and I ignored it. Books with any kind of focus on religion (or politics) are not my thing. I dislike being preached to – even if I agree with the writer’s… Read more »

Review: The Duke’s Ballad (Witch World #31: The Estcarp Cycle #10) by Andre Norton
*Note* This review has spoilers for Ciara’s Song. I suggest you read Ciara’s Song before reading this review. It’s no secret: I’m a huge Andre Norton fan. I’ve really enjoyed all of her works that I’ve read but my biggest Andre Norton obsession is her Witch World series. I have… Read more »

Review: Written in Red (The Others #1) by Anne Bishop
*Trigger Warning* This book contains detailed discussion about cutting/self-harm as well as mentions of (but no descriptions of) possible rape. Oh my! I’ve had Written in Red hanging around the house for weeks – I checked it out of the library on a humbug and it wasn’t really in the… Read more »
Review: Broken Open (The Hurley Boys #2) by Lauren Dane
I loved The Best Kind of Trouble so when Broken Open was announced, I was rather excited. THEN I saw the cover for Broken Open and I swooned. Every once in a while publishers get covers right and this one is pretty much on the money! That BEARD. Her HAIR…. Read more »
Review: Of Swine and Roses by Ilona Andrews
*sigh* This was so good. Just…so short. 🙁 I’m a greedy reader when it comes to Ilona Andrews and I always want MOAR. 😀 This is a super short-short that *could* be tied into the new Hidden Legacy series. I say “could” because this story was the catalyst for both… Read more »
Rainy Mornings, Suicidal Earthworms and Guilty Re-reads: Manhunting by Jennifer Crusie
There are few things that are more stressful for me in the mornings that walking my dog after it rains. The earthworms are everywhere and I try diligently not to step on them but they just seem to keep coming for my boots as if they want to be squished…. Read more »
Review: Dragons at Crumbling Castle by Sir Terry Pratchett
Dragons at Crumbling Castle is an adorable selection of short stories and illustrations. This title is a book club pick – it’s a bit younger than I normally care to read – and I’m pretty happy I was introduced to this novel via my book club. There are quite a… Read more »
Review: The Rook (The Checquy Files #1) by Daniel O’Malley
The Rook was a breath of fresh air! I had such an enjoyable read and I am anxiously awaiting the next book in the series (Summer 2015?). The Rook – to me – is like “Homeland Security UK – Supernatural Division.” It’s sort of a cross between a [very, very]… Read more »
