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 […]

ARC Review: Heartless Hunter by Kristen Ciccarelli

This was one of my most anticipated 2023 releases, and it did NOT disappoint! I devoured this book within two days of starting it because I couldn’t put it down. “A steamy game of cat and mouse” indeed! If you know anything about me, you know that enemies to lovers is my favorite trope. And this is one of the best ones I’ve read in a long time! There’s so many ‘enemies to lovers’ books where they’re barely enemies, and […]

Mini Reviews: Coven, Serpent & Wings of Night

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: The Invocations by Krystal Sutherland

FIRST FIVE STAR BOOK OF 2024!! Holy shit, ya’ll. This book was fuckin’ awesome!! I think going into this book totally blind is what made me love this so much, and I implore you to skip this review if you have not yet read it. The only thing I knew going in was that it was about witches, and I ended up being completely broadsided! I read House of Hollow last year, and while I enjoyed it, I didn’t love […]

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 […]

Audiobook Review: Ghost Wood Song by Erica Waters

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on July 21, 2023 | 0 Comments

This book was one of those that I enjoy while reading and then never think about it again. Mostly I just enjoyed the murder mystery aspect and the setting. The vibe of this book was by far my favorite part! I loved the bayou/backwoods southern gothic atmosphere of this book. The fiddle that brought ghosts back was awesome, too! I wish there had been a lot more of that, because those parts are where this book really shines. Sadly, the […]
