My husband Jason and I are wonder twin cancer survivors! Sadly, all the radiation did not make us bionic...yet. I've done two quarter Cannonballs successfully now, and this year I'm going for a half. (Learn more about this Cannonballer: Debcapsfan's Quick Questions interview.)

Sparks Fly

The Duke is Wicked (League of Lords Book 3) by Tracy Sumner

by Leave a Comment

I got this book from a stuff your kindle thread on twitter. According to the description it was a historical romance with a Duke and an American heiress, with the pairs from previous stories having supernatural abilities. The Duke, Sebastian, forms a League (not of Extraordinary Gentleman although that could work here) of people with supernatural abilities to protect them. This is the third book in the series, and I probably should have gotten the first two to get some context that I missed, but […]

Did you just yada yada yada the apocalypse?

Not Your Sidekick by C.B. Lee

by Leave a Comment

More post apocalyptic fiction! This time, we don’t really get into the why things happen and what caused this, this book takes place long into the future, where there are metahumans with super powers, and heroes and villains. Not Your Sidekick, by C.B.Lee tells the story of Jessica Tran, living in a futuristic town where her parents are minor celebrity super heroes. Her sister is a much bigger super hero working for the League of Heroes. Jess is bi, and has a big crush on […]

When A Cozy Mystery Needs a Trigger Warning

Of Murders and Mages: Casino Witch Mysteries 1 by Nikki Haverstock

by 5 Comments

I got this book, from a link on twitter promising to stuff your kindle with free romance novels. You could sort by format of e-reader, and genre. Fun, right? So I read Of Murders and Magic, the first in a series set in magical casino set in a made up town by Nikki Haverstock, who apparently hosted a reality tv archery competition in 2013 on NBCSports Network. What else can I tell you about this author? Well, let me tell you, she’s incredibly fat phobic. […]

Home is Whenever I am With You

The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune

by Leave a Comment

The House in the Cerulean Sea was on a best of list, but I can’t remember which one I got it from anymore. I highly recommend Daniel Henning’s read of the audio book by TJ Klune. The story is set in the present, or perhaps the near future, but there are magical creatures. Like many stories, there is a registry of the creatures, there’s a lot of discrimination and fear. In this case, the creatures are children, and they live in an orphanage run by […]

And then they all died

Piranesi by Susanna Clarke

by Leave a Comment

CBR Square- Mythic I was talking to my husband about Piranesi after he asked me what I thought about it and I told him I loved it but I didn’t want to spoil any of it so I didn’t know what to say. He told me to just say “and then all died.” Sorry. Piranesi is a slow building mystery where the main character is in a House by the sea full of statues that is built like a maze. The main character, who doesn’t remember […]

Bogged Down with Hairshirts

The Charmed Wife by Olga Grushin

by Leave a Comment

CBR Square: Cityscape. Shoutout to the folks who put together the CBR Bingo, because I was wondering where to fit this book, then I looked at the paperback cover and realized it has a cityscape in a shoe outline. I liked this book more than the last Cannonball Reviewer, but it did drag in several placed for me. The Charmed Wife is a retelling of Cinderella, where she’s been married to her Prince for 13.5 years and he’s a cheating horndog. This is hammered home […]
