eARC Review: The House at Watch Hill by Karen Marie Moning

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on March 3, 2025 | 0 Comments

This is rather hard for me to review, as I had mixed feelings about it. I absolutely LOVED Karen’s Fever series – namely, books 1-5. After that, the series kind of lost me. I mostly enjoyed books 6-8, but they started to feel a little monotonous and I never continued past that. I enjoyed most of the Highlander series, too, although Immortal Highlander is my favorite far above all the rest (ADAM BLACK!!). So, when I saw that she was […]

Audiobook Review: Slewfoot by Brom

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on December 6, 2024 | 0 Comments

Oh look, yet another wildly popular book that I didn’t enjoy. Baa. Not to say it was all terrible. There were some things I liked: namely, Father/Samson and the Wildfolk. I thought the magic/lore side of the story was really cool, and I enjoyed those parts. However, I wasn’t a huge fan of Abitha’s parts. Or Abitha’s character. Actually, I found all the characters to be rather flat, and didn’t connect with any of them. Not to mention there were […]

ARC Review: Empire of the Damned by Jay Kristoff

A HUGE thank you to St. Martin’s Press for sending me an early copy of the book! “Sunset waits for no saint, and the Dead run quick.” I. JUST. WOW, YA’LL. I daresay Damned was even better than Empire. This book rocked my fuckin’ socks off! Something I adore about Jay Kristoff is that he is a PRO at middle books. No second book syndrome here! (Actually, I think the second book has been my favorite in all of his trilogies!) […]

Mini Reviews: Coven, Serpent & Wings of Night

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on January 19, 2024 | 0 Comments

I had really high hopes for this book. (Also, that cover is STUNNING!!) While it didn’t quite live up to my expectations, I did still enjoy it for the most part. The world was interesting – I liked the dark academia setting and the structure of the society. However, I didn’t care a whole lot for the romance. (And I say romance loosely; it’s not romantic at all, it’s purely sexual.) I’m usually a hardcore fan of morally grey MMCs, […]

ARC Review: Emily Wilde’s Map of the Otherlands by Heather Fawcett

Ugh, I adore this world so so much! I loved going back to it, I just want to crawl into the pages and live there! I daresay this book was just as good, if not maybe even slightly better than the first. I wanted to re-read it as soon as I finished! I can’t WAIT until the audiobook comes out, I’ll be listening on release day because Ell Potter and Michael Dodds KILLED IT in the first book. (I actually could […]

Review: The Never King by Nikki St. Crowe

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on October 20, 2023 | 0 Comments

Save the king, save the island. I’m actually quite shocked that I enjoyed this book! This was only the second reverse harem I’ve ever read in my life, lol. But I do think this was a good one for a beginner to the genre because it’s not in your face smutty (which I am not a fan of) and it’s still got a great story! This book was a very quick and easy (and fun!) read. There are no white […]
