Blurring the Lines & Extras by Amy Kaybach

Blurring the Lines & Extra..

Posted 07/15/2024 by Charli in Book Reviews / 0 Comments

Blurring the Lines & Extras is a prequel novella with some extra tidbits for the Blind Rebels series, all wrapped into one tidy little package. This book does contain spoilers for the Blind Rebels series, so if spoilers bother you, I recommend either reading the series first or stopping after Blurring the Lines and waiting to read the extras until after you’ve finished the Blind Rebels series. As a huge fan of the Blind Rebels series, I’d often wondered exactly how the events played out that led up to the Rebels’ hiatus. I knew it had to do with Mavrick, Callum, and Mavrick’s fiancee Becka, but I wasn’t sure how it had all played out. Now I know. I’m going to be honest, I dislike Becka even more now than I did before. While there were times I could relate to her, she really got under my skin most of […]

Wild Court by Matthew Samuels

Wild Court by Matthew Samuels

Today is my stop on the Escapist Book Co blog tour for Matthew Samuels’s Wild Court. This is an urban fantasy that deals with the paranormal. Thank you to Escapist Book Co and Matthew Samuels for allowing me to participate in this blog tour. When I first read the description for Wild Court, I was intrigued. I’m not usually one for urban fantasy novels, but I wanted to give it a try. I’m so glad I did. Wild Court has a unique spin on urban fantasy. It’s paranormal fantasy and it is done in a way that I haven’t really seen before. There is a slow build up to the full issue, but once the full issue is at hand, the book moves pretty quickly. Honestly, the slow build up is rather nice – it keeps the book from feeling rushed. I liked the characters – most of them at […]

When Oceans Rise by Robin Alvarez

When Oceans Rise by Robin Alva..

Posted 05/23/2023 by Charli in Book Reviews / 2 Comments

Today I’m featuring a review of When Oceans Rise by Robin Alvarez. This review is part of my stop on the blog tour organized by TBR & Beyond Tours. For some reason when I started reading When Oceans Rise, I didn’t realize it was a Little Mermaid retelling – until certain things happened and my brain said “Oh, ok! Little Mermaid retelling!” Just add a little bit of spice… such as Filipino mythology, monsters, and gods. Now we all know by now that I’m a fan of fairy tale retellings, so it shouldn’t be a surprise that I liked this one. Although I wasn’t as fond of it as I have been with other retellings, that’s more because I’m not as big of a fan of the Little Mermaid as I am other fairy tales than it is anything to do with the actual book. As far as the characters […]

They Lie Here by NS Ford

They Lie Here by NS Ford

Our review for today is for They Lie Here by NS Ford. This post is one of the stops on the blog tour for this book. Thank you to TheWriteReads/BBNYA for allowing me to be a part of this tour. They Lie Here is an interesting mystery/thriller that also has some elements of science fiction… all centered around a woman trying to find out what happened to a musician from the 1980s who has disappeared. Kat Green is a former teen pop star who is trying to escape her past while also trying to “help” other former celebrities come out of hiding by finding them. I have to say, she isn’t a particularly likeable gal – after all, her main business is being a nosy woman who won’t leave celebrities who aren’t in the spotlight anymore alone. Her target in They Lie Here? Roskoe Darke, formerly of Scorpio Hearts. I […]

The Reaper’s Quota by Sarah McKnight

Our review for today is for The Reaper’s Quota by Sarah McKnight. This tour is part of TheWriteReads blog tour. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of this blog tour. Ok, anyone who knows me knows that I love things that have to do with the Grim Reaper. I mean, I even have a Grim Reaper based Pathfinder 2 character (a sorceress named Reaper who casts Necromancy spells, wears a black robe, carries a scythe, and has a raven for a familiar). So I was thrilled to be selected for this blog tour. There is only one character we really need to worry about with this book and that is Reaper #2497. He remembers his name from when he was human and he also wants to know all the other Reapers’ names. He’s a super funny, super interesting character. It makes me wonder why all the other […]
