The Little Red Chairs by Edna O’Brien

The reason I’ve always liked historical fiction is that my own knowledge on historical events is pretty much nonexistent. Yes, I took history classes in high school but they barely taught me anything. And I definitely did not have the time to take a course in university that would provide me with more in-depth knowledge.…

Good as Gone by Amy Gentry

True to my word, I did not try to compare this novel to Gone Girl, even though the title gave me the opportunity to do so; all the author needed to do was add the word “girl” to the end of her title (okay, not a funny joke, but it made me laugh in my head)!…

Rebel of the Sands by Alwyn Hamilton

Lately, there have been a lot of YA fiction that has caught my eye. There are times when I go through a phase where all I read are YA novels, or only adult fiction. I’ve tried to stay away from that and read some of everything, but this also means that I don’t always get…

The Blood Key by Vaun Murphrey – The Wander #1

I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Based on the books that I review on this blog, it’s obvious that I love science fiction. I’m always looking for something new, a story that doesn’t resemble everything that is out there. Well, this author definitely gave me…

Wrong Number by Carys Jones

I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. The premise of this story was that it would be a fast paced mystery/thriller. While it definitely had a thrill factor, it wasn’t to the degree I was expecting. One reviewer mentioned that this novel was more of a…

The Fire Child by S.K. Tremayne

I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I had previously read The Ice Twins by this same author, and while I hadn’t loved that novel, I still thought it had been very well-written with a very interesting plot. I was quite excited to see how this new…

Wake of Vultures by Lila Bowen – Shadow #1

I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. When I first received this novel, I didn’t know what to expect. I’m not a fan of Western based stories and the last one I had read that was fantasy based was Blood Red Road, which was good but…

Dreams and Shadows by Jeffrey Collyer

I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Most of the fantasy novels I read have a female protagonist. It seems to be a common trend these days. Even when I write fantasy pieces, the main character I use is always female. That’s why I’m always interested…
