This anthology is different for several reasons. None of the stories are longer than 1,500 words, meaning a great many of them feel unfinished. They are also split into various genres including paranormal, mystery and crime, literary and memoir, science fiction and fantasy, historical, adventure and … [Read more]

A witch and a witch-hunter, sitting in a tree . . .

Boss Witch (Fix-It Witches, #2) by Ann Aguirre

30 Books in 30 Days, Vol. 2 Book 21/30 Thanks to NetGalley and Dreamscape Media for the audio ARC. It hasn't affected the content of my review. I liked this better than the first one! By quite a bit. The romance was very nice. I liked both Clem and Gavin, and thought they had lovely … [Read more]

30 Books in 30 Days, Vol. 2 Book 20/30 Will I be able to meet 250 words on this review with this level of enthusiasm?

The Copper Beech

The Copper Beech by Maeve Binchy

by Leave a Comment

Re-read June 27, 2022: I just needed a book taking place in a different time and place right now. Though this book starts off in the 1950s and ends around 1971 or so, it still brought me some comfort. Maybe because Binchy really does lay out how hard it was for women in Ireland in that time and … [Read more]
