So, it’s Friday morning. I’m sitting at work with a cup of tea and work that needs to be done. So, what am I doing instead? Playing catch up with my book reviews. ;) Expect another review at some point today (I hate it when I leave drafts sitting around… Read more »

Review: Tithe by Holly Black
I don’t even remember what made me put this book on my BookMooch wishlist. I think I might have been browsing around Amazon.com and found it through a link. Whatever the reason, I’m glad I picked it up. Tithe by Holly Black is described as a modern faerie tale, and…… Read more »

First of all, they’re focusing on teenage girls… Read more »

Book Review: Forbidden Magic by Cheyenne McCray
If there’s one thing I hate in the world, it’s not finishing a book. I hate starting a book and not being able to make it all the way through. It drives me nuts. But Forbidden Magic is making me nuttier. It started out interestingly enough. Spiffy concept, Irish mythology,… Read more »
