Keeping the Castle & A School for Brides

Keeping the Castle & A School for Brides

I’m liking doing joint mini-reviews when I read two related books close together. It may become a thing I do more often. Time will tell! I recently read two delightful connected books! I’m not sure how I missed Keeping the Castle when it came out. It’s exactly my kind of story. I’m so glad I was reminded… Read more »

Rebel Mechanics

Rebel Mechanics

My Thoughts: Oh yes. That summary caught my attention for sure! Alternate U.S. History? Magic? Governess? Espionage? Stempunk aspects? I am in, 100%! Once I started reading, I didn’t stop until it was done. I was having far too much fun. Verity is the kind of girl I like to imagine I would have been… Read more »

Lament and Ballad

Lament and Ballad

This is another case where I read companion novels back to back so I’m doing a joint review. I actually read Lament when it first came out and fell in love with it. I wasn’t blogging then so I never reviewed it. I could have sworn that I read Ballad (I bought it right when it came… Read more »

Ink and Bone

Ink and Bone

My Thoughts: This book is by Rachel Caine and it focuses on libraries. I am so in! I loved the idea that the Great Library of Alexandra not only survived, but thrived! In the world of Ink and Bone, the library has nearly unlimited power. And as we know, power corrupts! The library seeks to control all knowledge. They are… Read more »

Silver in the Blood

Silver in the Blood

My Thoughts: I picked this book up based on the cover (oh my gorgeous!!!) and the fact that it was written by Jessica Day George. I’m sure I read a summary about it at some point but all I remembered going in was that it took place in Romania in the late 1800’s and it… Read more »

The Fixer

The Fixer

My Thoughts: Jennifer Lynn Barnes is basically a genius. This is the sixth book of her’s that I’ve read and each one has captured my attention and left my wowed! The characters, the pacing, the suspense… perfection. I picked this book up on a day when I was kind of distracted. That ended the minute I… Read more »

The Heart of Betrayal

The Heart of Betrayal

My Thoughts: How do I even begin this review?!? There was so much I loved about this book. Basically there is no way to avoid spoilers for book one (they’re there in the summary!) so there will be some spoilers about The Kiss of Deception. Beware. First and foremost: Lia forever. Lia for always. 100% Team Lia!… Read more »
