The Goddess Game

The Bad Ones by Melissa Albert

April 22, 2024 by finnyfinfinn Leave a Comment

Yet another excellent young adult horror novel by the author of The Hinterlands series. Four people vanish from four different locations without a trace on a single winter’s night. There seems to be little to connect the four- a teacher, a teen girl and boy, and Nora’s estranged best friend Becca. Although Becca had been acting strangely in the months before her disappearance Nora knows that she would not have just run away. She must follow the clues Becca has left for her, clues that […]

Fake Dates Are Great

Not The Witch You Wed by April Asher

April 7, 2024 by finnyfinfinn Leave a Comment

This is a sweet little confection of a supernatural romantic comedy in which two people fake date until they reach their stated goals then part as respectful friends… Just kidding, it goes exactly as you’d expect. Violet Maxwell is a witch without magic. She’s made a good life for herself away from the magical high society her family belongs to. But as the oldest Maxwell triplet the loophole she used to avoid a Witch Bond is closing. Alpha Wolf Lincoln Throne is coming up on […]

Sabrina the Teenage Witches

The Invocations by Krystal Sutherland

March 13, 2024 by finnyfinfinn 2 Comments

Well they are all teenagers but definitely not the ABC Family Sabrina type witches, more the Netflix PG-13 type Sabrinas. Sadly no wisecracking Salem the cat here either, though there is a big silent demon. Zara Jones is desperately trying to find a way to bring her murdered sister back from the dead. Jude Wolf is a billionaire’s daughter suffering from a curse gone horribly wrong. Both girls urgently need a real witch to help them. Emer Byrne is a curse writer from a deceased […]

No Reunions

There Should Have Been Eight by Nalini Singh

March 6, 2024 by finnyfinfinn 2 Comments

Especially do not attend any reunions that are in memory of a lost friend or are being held in New Zealand.  Between this book, Wellington Paranormal, and Taskmaster NZ I’m starting to be very suspicious of what’s happening on that island. Eight teenagers were the best of friends until everyone’s favorite, Bea, died. Over the next nine years the group has drifted apart but Bea’s sister Darcie has organized a reunion for them at her family’s creepy mansion out in the countryside. It should be […]

Be Sure

Lost In the Moment and Found by Seanan McGuire

Mislaid In Parts Half-Known by Seanan McGuire

February 27, 2024 by finnyfinfinn Leave a Comment

Keep up with your cardio; you never know when you might need to run away from a dinosaur. Seanan McGuire’s Wayward Children novellas tell us about mysterious doors that appear to children in places no doors should be, with the words ‘Be Sure’ prominently displayed. And if that child, who usually doesn’t quite fit in their world, chooses to open that door and go through they will find a place more amazing than their wildest dreams. Usually the doors choose the right child, but not […]

February 5, 2024 by finnyfinfinn Leave a Comment

You know what you’re getting into with a new Stephanie Plum mystery and that’s okay. This time Stephanie has been hired by a local jewelry store owner to find a thief with a missing tray of diamonds. But there’s also another potential thief and more missing jewelry. Of course there’s more to the story. Also Stephanie is dog-sitting for her boyfriend who’s in Miami.
