The Final Girl Support Group

The Final Girl Support Group by Grady Hendrix

May 9, 2022 by Classic Leave a Comment

The only reason why I gave this 4 stars is because that ending just had me going really at the end. Everything up until then was almost frantic and insane (in a good way) and I went really and went to sleep. I woke up this morning hoping to feel a bit differently, but nah. "The Final Girl Support … [Read more]

Indigo

Indigo by Beverly Jenkins

May 9, 2022 by Classic Leave a Comment

Wow. Sorry to say but this is probably the first Ms. Beverly Jenkins book I have read that I struggled with. I think it's just because this one is packed with too much stuff. We have Hester helping the Underground Railroad. We have Hester dealing with her former fiancée and his now wife. We have … [Read more]

Screams From the Dark: 29 Tales of Monsters and the Monstrous

Screams From the Dark: 29 Tales of Monsters and the Monstrous by Ellen Datlow

May 9, 2022 by Classic Leave a Comment

Please note that I received this book via NetGalley. This did not affect my rating or review. Did Not Finish-27 percent. I feel really bad. I thought this would be up my alley. Getting to read 29 stories about monsters and monstrous things during one of the rainiest weeks ever should have been … [Read more]

Under Fortunate Stars

“This is too strange to be a coincidence. It’s all connected somehow”

Under Fortunate Stars by Ren Hutchings

May 9, 2022 by llamareadsbooks 3 Comments

I picked this up because of the gorgeous cover, and I’m glad I did! It’s a really good, extremely satisfying time travel space opera. “This is too strange to be a coincidence. It’s all connected somehow,” she said. “The engine problem, the Rift, that distress call… it’s all linked. And we need to … [Read more]

Fuzz: When Nature Breaks the Law by Mary Roach

May 8, 2022 by faintingviolet 3 Comments

It’s been a few years since I read a Mary Roach book, which seems like a terrible oversight. I generally love Roach’s books, even when the topic isn’t quite my jam (looking at you, Grunt). Its pretty simple to determine why - Mary Roach is hysterically funny. Ever since my first endeavor with her … [Read more]

Corona Days

Honor Thy Father by Gay Talese

Hit and Run by Lawrence Block

The Secret History of Twin Peaks by Mark Frost

May 8, 2022 by Jake Leave a Comment

After two-plus years of successfully evading the coronavirus, it finally caught up to me last week. Fortunately, my symptoms were mild (vaccinated and boosted), the only one lingering was fatigue. That and family responsibilities left me little time to write reviews this past week. So I decided to … [Read more]

    I really enjoyed this one. I was particularly amused at Lady Catherine deBoutgh’s disgust at her assassin’s incompetence.
