I’ve “stumbled into a mystic portal where everything was weirder and more interesting and infinitely better”

Witch Please by Ann Aguirre

by Leave a Comment

CBR13Bingo: Free – I got this as an ARC Yes, the book is just as sweet and adorable as the cover suggests. At one point, Titus feels like he’s “stumbled into a mystic portal where everything was weirder and more interesting and infinitely better” which honestly is a pretty good description of how I felt reading this book. Danica and her cousin Clem manage a repair shop called Fix-It Witches in a small midwestern town. Their secret? They are actually mechanically-inclined witches who use their magic to […]

Titus smiled, “I met the woman I’m going to marry.”

Witch Please by Ann Aguirre

by 1 Comment

I have been looking forward to Witch Please for months. I love Ann Aguirre’s books. She has gotten me through the last two years with some parts of my soul and sanity intact. On top of that already solid reason, Courtney Milan said she read Witch Please months ago and, well, the blurb is right there on the cover: “Sheer happiness in a book…”  How can you argue with that? You can’t. Fortunately, I got my hands on an arc and I have read it […]

Can you have a cinnamon roll hero whose body is literal armor? I guess so.

Meanwhile, Zylar, an alien described at one point as resembling the Alien from Predator, is en route to pick up his fiancee, who he is not stoked about and has never met, but on Barath, you get five shots at successfully […]

The Jaguar Knight by Ann Aguirre

The Jaguar Knight is the final book in the Ars Numina series, which I see I’ve managed to read and reread, but not review. If you are interested, and why wouldn’t you be, you’re going to want to start with the first book, The Leopard King. This final book in the series completes the arc and provides the emotional payoff set up in the first book. Ars Numina is a series of interconnected stories which over 6 books tell the story of allied societies whose […]

Love Code by Ann Aguirre

by 5 Comments

Ann Aguirre’s Strange Love was one of my favorite reads last year.  Zylar of Kith Balek looked like the Predator from Alien vs Predator, but really he was a cinnamon roll of sweetness. He accidentally kidnapped the human, Beryl Bowman and her dog, Snaps, after being misled by his ship’s AI, Helix. Love Code is Helix’s story. Helix was kind of an ass in Strange Love, but I was interested to see how an AI was going to become a romantic main character. When Love Code opens, Helix […]
