Who the Heck is Mira?

Mira's Last Dance by Lois McMaster Bujold

July 18, 2022 by sabian30 Leave a Comment

First of all, this is the fourth book in Ms. Bujold’s Penric and Desdemona series. I was bewildered by the format. It’s a small book, barely 150 pages, 8 chapters, and written in very large type.

A black and white cat nestled on a grey chair. The book, "A Prince on Paper" by Alyssa Cole is propped up by resting on the cat's side.

I adore romance trilogies where a trio of lady friends find their perfect partner, one set per book. CBR14 Bingo: Bodies

CBR14 Bingo: Bodies - There is a pair of attractive bodies on the cover.  Nya discovers what pleasures her body.

I’d Pay So Much to See this as a Movie

The Change by Kirsten Miller

July 18, 2022 by Ale 2 Comments

When picking up the actual book I ordered at the library, I was lured in by their "new releases" display.

July 18, 2022 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

cbr14bingo Series Level 1 She might be a superhero with pretty cool powers, but she is still 16 and has a curfew. I have read one other Ms. Marvel graphic novel/comic and was not totally impressed.
