In my ongoing quest to read everything M.C.A. Hogarth has written about the Eldritch, the last in my most recent spree was Even the Wingless.

I've got a few more for you after this, but I wanted to attack this one first. Because Lia Habel truly deserves no less with her brilliant follow-up to Dearly, … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: DEARLY, BELOVED by Lia Habel
Normally, I wouldn't put two book reviews together, but it's been a while since I posted and these two books belong together. At the suggestion of my father, I read these two books, Blue and its prequel Until Again by Lou Aronica, over the course of two days.
