Queen Victoria: Demon Hunter by AE Moorat

2 May 2012 Trish 1

I couldn’t finish Queen Victoria: Demon Hunter. Actually I barely got into the story, but by the third fight scene I realized that I did not possess the constitution to finish this book. There were many staff at Kensington Palace, fulfilling many roles; a man who was employed to catch […]

When Darkness Comes by Alexandra Ivy

27 April 2012 Nikki R 0

Anytime I get a new vampire book in my hands, I’m giddy with glee.  I’m a vamp girl.  Jackie assured me I’d love Alexandra Ivy’s Guardian of Eternity series and sent all she had my way.  I’ve FINALLY gotten to her first book, When Darkness Comes, and while I can’t […]

Lover Enshrined by JR Ward

22 February 2012 Jackie 0

For those who’ve been readers for awhile, or had caught the BDB Discussion during the Bookish Escape feature, you may already know how much I loved Lover Enshrined and the Brother Phury. I think I summed it up by calling him a “whiny little bitch” and then throwing the book […]

A Sliver of Shadow by Allison Pang

I cannot tell you just how loud I squee’d when I learned I was getting the opportunity to review A Sliver of Shadow by Allison Pang.  After reading her debut novel, A Brush of Darkness, I will totally admit to begging…er nicely asking Allison to let me beta read A Sliver […]

Lover Eternal by J. R. Ward

20 January 2012 Casey 0

I know Lover Eternal is only the second book of the Black Dagger Brotherhood, but I think it’s safe to say Rhage is my favorite brother. (Though I have a feeling I’m going to say that about each brother after I read his story.) Within the brotherhood, Rhage is the […]

Dark Lover by JR Ward

19 January 2012 Jackie 0

I discovered urban fantasy back in 2005 with Laurell K Hamilton’s Guilty Pleasures, but it was JR Ward’s Dark Lover that helped fed my growing love of the urban fantasy/paranormal romance genre.  There was just something so different about a world where vampires were still monsters (the violence, the mating, […]

Dark Lover by J. R. Ward

14 January 2012 Casey 2

I’ve had Dark Lover, actually nearly the entire Black Dagger Brotherhood series, sitting on my shelf for years, just waiting to be read. I finally sat down to read it now for the BDB Read-Along and let me tell you, I am so kicking myself for not reading this series […]

Matched by Ally Condie

4 January 2012 Jackie 1

I had been hearing a lot about this new young adult dystopian and when I was given the chance to review, I took the chance. I have to say, while Ally Condie’s Matched had a nice premise, I honestly don’t see what all the hype was for. Cassia has always […]

A Brush of Darkness by Allison Pang

23 November 2011 Nicole 3

OK, so quick disclosure, this review comes after my second read of A Brush of Darkness by Allison Pang.  Now, that said, I loved it the first time I read it and I still love it on my second read.  If you haven’t yet read A Brush of Darkness, add it […]

Batman: The Dark Knight Strikes Again by Frank Miller

21 September 2011 Jesse 0

I’m not really sure where to being with The Dark Knight Strikes Again by Frank Miller. It started out very promising, with a 2 page “article” from Vicki Vale about Bruce Wayne’s funeral and Jim Gordon’s breakdown – it set an exciting tone that captured my attention, but quickly fell […]
