Burned by Karen Marie Moning

19 September 2017 Sarah 0

If you follow Karen Marie Moning’s Fever series, then you know that we step away from the spinoff that was Iced and return to the world (and viewpoint) of main character MacKayla Lane in the seventh book, Burned. It carries a unique pacing that I’ve come to expect from this author, […]

Dangerously Charming by Deborah Blake

10 October 2016 Sarah 2

After stumbling on Deborah Blake’s Baba Yaga series a couple of years ago, I quickly became a fan.  Now, I finally get more insight into the Riders. I. Am. Thrilled. A fast-paced tale that travels through now and faery-time, Dangerously Charming tells the story of the first Broken Rider, Mikhail Day.  He’s brooding, […]

Menagerie by Rachel Vincent

21 September 2015 Sarah 0

A dark and twisty story that encapsulates the best that urban fantasy has to offer, Menagerie by Rachel Vincent is supremely satisfying.  In the back of my mind, I heard dark, discordant calliope music while reading (creepy and foreboding).  A crazy alternate reality of paranoid humans seeking to cage the monsters […]

Odd Melody by Virginia Nelson

24 August 2015 Sarah 0

Odd Melody, book 2 in Virginia Nelson’s The Odd Series, is just as fun and satisfying as book 1. Half-fae/half-siren, Janie Smith, hasn’t had an opportunity to catch her breath since she came fully into her siren powers and found out that all sorts of magical creatures really exist. She’s […]

The Crescent City trilogy comes to a close in Garden of Dreams and Desires by Kristen Painter. Though it lacked the finality one would expect from a closing novel, it was an entertaining ride. Painter brings the charm and amusement that she has become known for with her own dash […]

Casually Cursed by Kimberly Frost

I had high hopes for Casually Cursed by Kimberly Frost.  After reading the first few in the series, I was hooked and wanted MORE MORE MORE.  But, it is with a heavy reading heart that I report, Casually Cursed has, for now, ended up on the DNF pile.  I’m not sure if […]

House of the Rising Sun by Kristen Painter

7 July 2014 Natassia 0

Urban Fantasy gets an epic new entry with Kristen Painter’s new Crescent City series. The first installment of this multi-layered tale is House of the Rising Sun. As someone who had not particularly liked Painter’s House of Commare series, I was pleasantly surprised to really enjoy this story. With a […]
