Fire Magic & Ice Cream

“If your ice cream suddenly took on human form I would cheat on you in a second.”

Fire Magic & Ice Cream by Lauren Connolly

May 24, 2022 by llamareadsbooks 1 Comment

I loved this author’s Folk Haven series so I was very interested to see what paranormal romance she’d come up with next. And when I found out it had lots of ice cream? Mmmm. This sweet book is definitely one that you’ll want to have some ice cream on hand while reading! Quinn may be an … [Read more]

A successful send-up is tricky to do, and I don’t think this one works

The Final Girl Support Group by Grady Hendrix

May 24, 2022 by Mobius_Walker 1 Comment

I loved Grady Hendrix's book Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires. It was a wonderful, satirical send up of vampire novels and the Southern suburbs. I get that is wasn't for everyone, but Hendrix really nailed his tongue-in-check, nearly meta take on vampire troupes and Southern suburb … [Read more]

All ghosts were once alive

The Wide Sargasso Sea by Jean Rhys

May 23, 2022 by booktrovert Leave a Comment

I read Jane Eyre many, many years ago, when I was around 13 or 14 I think - long enough ago that I don't recall exactly the experience of reading the novel itself beyond vague memories of the language being stuffy. I've seen iterations of the novel in many different movies and television shows over … [Read more]

    on Mad, Bad, and Dangerous to Abduct
    I read them in the late 1980s/early 90s too. They were my first romances.

    on Mad, Bad, and Dangerous to Abduct
    I read my way through her books, and those of Kathleen Woodiwiss and Shirley Busbee, in the 1980s and 'bonkers'...

    on Love on the Spectrum, Austen Style
    Yes! It’s downright offensive! I do love Lady Catherine

    on Love on the Spectrum, Austen Style
    I really enjoyed this one. I was particularly amused at Lady Catherine deBoutgh’s disgust at her assassin’s incompetence.

    This book helped me realize how very specific my pet peeves could be in relation to how people refer to...
