This is the eleventh book in the Dresden Files. You don’t want to start with this one, there’s far too much in the book building on stuff already established. I’d recommend anyone new to the books to start with book 4. The first three were a complete slog to get through for me. The audio book versions, read by James Marsters, are all highly recommended. Harry Dresden is extremely surprised when Morgan, the wizard whose probably shown the most animosity towards Harry in the past, shows […]
A fun adventure where the woodcutter heroine rescues the young man in distress
Saturday Woodcutter believes she is the only one of her many siblings without any magic, until the day when she throws a mirror out of the window in a rage, and conjures an ocean in the backyard. Because one of her brothers has run away and Saturday believes her ocean may have drowned him, she grabs her trusty axe (which has decided to change shape into a sword for the time being) and sets sail on her sister Thursday’s pirate ship in order to try […]
Scary magic. Bad Fairies. Wolf people. DEAD BABIES.
I want to preface this by stating that I reallly wanted to love this book — I used to work at the cafe where Janni wrote I’m sure a large portion of this very book. I served her coffee at least once a week for probably four years. I didn’t realize she was an author, however, until after I had already left that job. I also sat in on a panel she gave at the Tucson Festival of Books last weekend before I’d had a […]
The Firey Heart – It’s about vampires, not some kind of STD.
School is really getting in the way of my reading and reviewing. Who needs an education anyway? Onto the good stuff! The Firey Heart is the 4th book in Richelle Meade’s Bloodlines series, which is a spin-off from the 6-book Vampire Academy series. I’ve been reading these since the first VA book came out about seven years ago, and I’ll be dammed if I stop reading them now. I have a horrible compulsion to see these things through, no matter how terrible the series gets. I have […]
Blood Rites: Sex, Blood, Magic
Blood Rites (The Dresden Files, Book 6)
The Raven Boys – Solid paranormal YA.
Full disclosure: I love YA. If I manage to make it through this year and challenge, I’m willing to bet that the majority of my reviews will fall into that category. No shame! The Raven Boys has been on my list of books to read for quite some time. I finally got a copy and, at first, wasn’t sure what to make of it. It jumped around between three or four characters a lot in the first few chapters, but once it finished the set […]
