The Covenant comes to New York

April 19, 2018 by Malin 2 Comments

This is the second book in the series. There may be some mild spoilers for the first book, Discount Armageddon, in this review. Set a few months after the events in the previous book, Verity Price is still trying to make it as a ballroom dancer, while also trying to study all manner of supernatural beings, all while keeping humanity in general from finding out about them. After her former boss’ niece took over the club where she worked as a waitress, turning it into more of […]

Wacky Neighbor, Loyal Dog, and Please Make the Potential Love Interest Go Away

April 17, 2018 by Jen K Leave a Comment

thewheelbarrow’s review of the last novel of this series reminded me that I had meant to check this out a long time ago when a few people reviewed the first in the series.  Atticus Sullivan runs a new age bookstore and tea shop in Tempe, Arizona and looks like he is around 21 years old.  In reality, he is a 2,100 year old druid and has been on the run from one man, the Celtic god of love, for about 2,000 of those years.  Atticus […]

Since When Does Dina Have a Sister?

April 17, 2018 by Jen K 2 Comments

I really need to start following authors on Facebook or Twitter! Partially, I just don’t have the patience to check weekly to see if there are updates to a story published by chapter, but I also just forget about these things.  As a result, when I checked on the Ilona Andrews website, I discovered that not only where they already a few chapters into a new Innkeeper Chronicles novel, but I had completely missed the entire third novel since I had no clue who this […]

Snow White Trades in Woodland Creatures for a Badge

April 17, 2018 by Jen K Leave a Comment

Being caught up on all the InCryptid novels and the short stories/novellas that are available for free (there are a few more in collections I don’t feel like paying for yet), I continued down the Seanan McGuire rabbit hole to this novel.  While it didn’t grip me as quickly as the InCryptid series, I enjoyed the concept, and ended up having fun once I got used to the characters and the team. This was originally written as a Kindle Serial, and while it is now […]

A magical adventure to find Father and self acceptance

April 17, 2018 by Dome'Loki Leave a Comment

Alice was an odd girl, even for Ferenwood, where the sun occasionally rained and the colors were brighter than usual and magic was as common as a frowning parent. In a world saturated in color, where magic is common place and everyone has a special magical talent, Alice Alexis Queensmeadow stands out as peculiar, for lacking both color and magic.  Skin and hair the white of milk, the only color she possesses is a golden honey hue to her eyes.  At twelve years old, Alice […]

Paranormal fantasy that should appeal to Supernatural fans

April 15, 2018 by Malin 5 Comments

From Goodreads, because I’m really far behind on my reviews, and it’s a good summary of the book: Ghoulies. Ghosties. Long-legged beasties. Things that go bump in the night…the Price family has spent generations studying the monsters of the world, working to protect them from humanity – and humanity from them. Enter Verity Price. Despite being trained from birth as a cryptozoologist, she’d rather dance a tango than tangle with a demon, and is spending a year in Manhattan while she pursues her career in […]
