So to present me with a book proclaiming itself to be a queer fairy tale and expect me not to read it is pretty ridiculous. I haven't spent much time (yet) seeking out queer fiction, though the pieces I've found (or the books I've founds pieces in) have all been pretty good so far, and … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: THE FOUR PROFOUND WEAVES by R. B. Lemberg

Thank you to NetGalley for providing a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review! Yet again, I prove myself incapable to keep my own time frames, and ran out of time on this book before it was archived. I swear, every time I get a book on NetGalley, life immediately decides that … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: THE PATH KEEPER by N.J. Simmonds
I did it! I finally read the damn thing! Everyone should be very proud of me. It's an interesting departure for me, given that my only experience before this with Wendig's writing (that isn't a tweet or blog post) was the Heartland trilogy. And Miriam Black and her world aren't even remotely close to that … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: BLACKBIRDS by Chuck Wendig
I received a copy of this book free of charge from the author in exchange for my honest review. I like killers with calling cards. I like the concept of calling cards in general. (One of the video games I'm playing at present uses the concept, and it pleases me immensely.) So in reading the … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: THE BLUEBELL INFORMANT by Nick R B Tingley
Hey, surprise! A review on a Saturday! This was slated for Wednesday's post, but when Laura asked me to help with the book cover reveal, I knew I couldn't pass it up. And for once, my month is pretty packed with books, so I needed to get this out before next Wednesday! Besides, I'm excited … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: THE PERFECT STRANGER by Megan Miranda
I was provided a copy of this book by the author at no cost, in exchange for my honest review. It's been a while since I read anything that primarily features LGBT characters. I'm not sure if that speaks to my choice in books or just how isolated my current collection is, but when Zakian … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: ASHBY HOLLER by Jamie Zakian
I'm fairly certain I picked this up as a freebie somewhere along the line, though I don't remember where or when. (This happens to me a lot. It's what I get for randomly downloading free books constantly.) Despite the market being super saturated with young adult dystopian stories, I'm still game to read most of … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: THE INSTITUTE by Kayla Howarth
I can't recall when I picked up this book, but reading the description as a refresher told me why I would have clicked a download link. Chastity O'Neill has grown up in a family of strong men, her father and four brothers all volunteer firefighters. (And really, any wife/mother in that situation is just as … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: ONE OF THE GUYS by Kristan Higgins
I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review. I'll admit, there was a piece of me that was hesitant about this book. I'd read THE GIRL WHO STAYED relatively recently, and had been somewhat underwhelmed by the experience. Also, the story was apparently told a bit like the … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: ALL THE MISSING GIRLS by Megan Miranda
I received an ARC of this from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review. Recently I've had an interest for books that take place in space. I've always liked space, be it through stuff like Star Trek/Star Wars, or just my on-going fascination with black holes and stars. (I didn't take Orion as part of … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: ADMIRAL by Sean Danker
I am not lost...
