Again with the Eðians!

My Contrary Mary (Mary, #1) by Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton, Jodi Meadows

July 8, 2021 by narfna Leave a Comment

**30 Books in 30 Days** Book 15/30 Thanks to Netgalley and Harper Collins for the ARC! It has not affected the content of my review. I have just finished this and it was glorious. I didn’t know we’d be returning to the same world that their first book was set in! I’ve missed those Eðians. You can read this without having read My Lady Jane first, but I would reccomend doing it anyway because that book is wonderful. That makes this book an unofficial sequel. […]

In this book a straight man repeatedly and affectionately calls another straight man ‘Little Butt.’

Isn't It Bromantic? (Bromance Book Club, #4) by Lyssa Kay Adams

July 7, 2021 by narfna 2 Comments

**30 Books in 30 Days** Book 8/30 Thanks to Netgalley and Berkley for the ARC. It hasn’t affected the content of my review. For the first like 15% of this book, I was giddy with how much I was enjoying it. I was like YES THIS BOOK and highlighting stuff and writing notes. Then the shine wore off a little. And then there were some bits at the end that made me roll my eyes. So overall, this was an average reading experience, with some […]

The Survivors by Jane Harper

February 22, 2021 by narfna Leave a Comment

I received a free ARC of The Survivors from Macmillan in exchange for an honest review. Getting this review in just under the wire! US pub date is tomorrow, 2/2/21*. And y’all should check this out! If mysteries and crime books are your thing. This is my second Jane Harper book. Previously, I’ve read The Dry and also have her sequel to that book and her other standalone, The Lost Man on my TBR. Just judging by the two books of hers I’ve read now, […]

The last Magic Ex Libris book doesn’t disappoint.

January 24, 2016 by narfna 2 Comments

NB: I received a free review copy of this book but that has not affected the content of my review. Maybe you will understand just how much fun I think this series is if I tell you that I quite literally sent an email to Mr. Hines’s publicist begging her for a review copy, when I learned there were a few available. I was a bit nervous once it arrived though; in the unlikely event I didn’t like the book, I would be stuck with […]
