DNF @ 50% I wanted to love this – it’s marketed for fans of Dexter, after all – but sadly, I didn’t. I’ll start with the good: The concept was fantastic! I love how dark it was, and it was gory and brutal. I loved the magical creatures and the idea of a magical creature black market. Super cool! Unfortunately, that’s where my enjoyment ended. The writing is just…not good, sorry. It’s very juvenile to the point that it felt […]

Oh my goodness, I found an Urban Fantasy that I actually enjoyed! And that breaks out of the genre! I usually hate Urban Fantasy, because they all read exactly the same. For once I was pleasantly surprised! This one stands out and brought a fresh perspective to the table that I thoroughly enjoyed. First of all, SINDARI. Um, sentient magical tiger sidekick, YES PLEASE! Actually, he was the reason I picked this up in the first place. Ya’ll know I’m a […]

Review: Blood, Ink and Fire by Ashley Mansour

I think this book had fabulous potential. The idea of it all was epic – in the future, books and reading are forbidden. How scary is that? I think Ashley Mansour was really onto something great here, because it speaks to the heart of every single one of us readers. A world without books is the worst kind of world we could possibly imagine! The concept really was brilliant. But there were a lot of issues I had with it that […]

My god I missed this world so much!! I loved jumping back into it, even for such a brief time. I had forgotten how beautiful and compelling Jay’s writing was! This is a very short story, so there’s not much to it. But Jay still found a way to pull on my heartstrings. Even though I pretty much knew how it was going to end, I still enjoyed it and it still sucked to see it end! The subject of […]

As far as reaper books go, this one is on the high end for me. In fact, I don’t usually like them, so I’ve been looking for one that I could enjoy. And I did enjoy this one, even though it was more of a love story than a book about reapers. I really liked Dex. He was what made me enjoy this book! There was clear development in his character (especially in the end) and he was definitely the […]
