Sticking It to Cancer One Book at a Time

The End of the Initial Series though there are more

Faefever by Karen Marie Moning

I don’t usually do multiple books in one review, but I’m a bit behind so I thought this would be easier than clogging up the main page.  Hence, I’ll try to do at least the ones that are part of the same series in one review, starting with the “final” three books of the Fever series.  These are not in fact the final three books since there are more than five books in the series (I think from other character views?), but based on the […]

This book is definitely extra.

Kingdom of Ash (Throne of Glass, #7) by Sarah J. Maas

I have so many THOUGHTS about this book that I am going to go the other route and only hit the highlights. I am already ten reviews behind and I’m not going to have time today to write them all, so I might honestly have to declare REVIEW AMNESTY and start fresh in the new year. (Although there are some books I really want to actually review.) Here are my thoughts in no particular order: This book was TOO LONG. 992 pages is about two […]

And now the end is near…

Always Forever by Mark Chadbourn

by Leave a Comment

After slogging through its predecessor over a matter of weeks, I tore through Always Forever (the last in the Age of Misrule trilogy) in just two days, although this had more to do with wanting to read the tower of books I got for Crimbo than with how much I was enjoying it. To be fair, I did enjoy this one more than the Darkest Hour, but it never quite got back to the same level as the opener, World’s End. We left Darkest Hour with […]

CANNONBALL!!!

So, I follow Shea on twitter and really appreciate his brand of humor.  He is a writer for the sports and pop-culture blog The Ringer.  Shea is 100% enthusiastic at all times and gets just as excited for other as he does for himself.  This book is a collection of essays and artwork about the NBA from 1980 to now.  It is full of ridiculous essays like a draft of the greatest fictional basketball players and the comprehensive list of the most disrespectful dunks in […]

Humans out for witch blood

A Perfect Blood by Kim Harrison

by Leave a Comment

A Perfect Blood is the tenth entry in Kim Harrison‘s series about a witch bounty hunter, Rachel Morgan. This time around, it’s not supernatural beings out for her blood but…humans. Rachel believes the I.S. has called her out to consult, but really they wanted to see if she was the culprit of ritual witch killings. The victims apparently are being experimented upon with illegal demon curses by a group of human terrorists who want to rid the world of all supernatural creatures. Seems a bit […]

A supernatural murder mystery

Iron & Velvet (Kate Kane Paranormal Investigator #1) by Alexis Hall

by Leave a Comment

Iron & Velvet by Alexis Hall is a paranormal F/F romance mystery. I’m always up for anything paranormal with a broody detective, so this was right up my alley. Kate Kane is a private investigator for the supernatural underworld of London. Even though she has a fairy mother, she lives her life as a human, only calling on her untested powers for emergencies. The book opens with a werewolf’s murder outside an elite vampire club. Kate’s called onto the case by her ex-boyfriend Patrick who basically […]
