The Night Masquerade (Binti #3)

The Night Masquerade (Binti #3) by Nnedi Okorafor

September 1, 2022 by Classic 2 Comments

This was a great ending to the series. I honestly took a while to get back to it because I wanted to take my time. Okorafor does a great job of ending the series in a satisfying way. I will echo what some other readers said though which is that it felt like the story had several endings. I think it … [Read more]

The City and the Pillar

The City and the Pillar by Gore Vidal

September 1, 2022 by vel veeter Leave a Comment

This is Gore Vidal's third novel, first published in 1948. His first novel Williwaw was a solid success and is one of the very first WWII novels, even though the novel primarily takes place far away from the war. His second novel, In a Yellow Wood, was considerably less successful, perhaps as Vidal … [Read more]

This is basically non-stop action.

Magic Breaks (Kate Daniels, #7) by Ilona Andrews

September 1, 2022 by narfna 2 Comments

To be honest, I thought the confrontation that happens in this book wouldn't happen until the last—or maybe the penultimate—book in the series. So I was refreshingly surprised! For most of this book I had no idea where it was going, and then it went there! And then after that it shook some things up … [Read more]

Haven

Haven by Rebekah Weatherspoon

September 1, 2022 by Classic 2 Comments

So I gave this one 3.5 stars and rounded it up to 4 stars. I have to say once the book just moved straight to Shep and Claudia having hot sexy times it got a lot better. I think Weatherspoon was trying to do a romantic suspense book and the suspense part did not work for me at all. There were so … [Read more]

Eat the Rich

A Certain Hunger by Chelsea G Summers

September 1, 2022 by Abi 2 Comments

Look if you're gonna credit Brett Easton Ellis in the acknowlegements, I better be able to tell what level of irony you are doing that on. A weird thing about this book is that there is no dramatic tension, deliberately so by construction. A Certain Hunger is the memoir of a self admitted … [Read more]
