Really made me crave some butter chicken

Tikka Chance on Me by Suleikha Snyder

by 4 Comments

4.5 stars This novella was exactly what I needed in the stressful weeks starting the new year, when I’m massively behind on my work (thanks, ill-timed Christmas illness), still fighting a horrible cough and cold (at this stage, I’m not entirely sure I’m not suffering from a new cold that I caught on the heels of the first one). I have so many mediocre English essays left to grade, with the deadline of the 12th of January (when all the grades for term 1 have […]

I don’t really find the idea of a snake vampire all that appealing

Archangel's Viper by Nalini Singh

3.5 stars This is book 10 in an ongoing series, so really not the place to start. The first book in the series is Angels’ Blood. This review will contain some spoilers for that book. Holly Chang, who for a while renamed herself Sorrow, was the only survivor of the terrible carnage perpetrated when the archangel Uram went crazy and kidnapped her and all her friends and proceeded to torture and kill most of them. He forced Holly not only to drink his blood, but to watch […]

Trying desperately to get enough reviews for my double Cannonball

Burn for Me by Ilona Andrews

White Hot by Ilona Andrews

Wildfire by Ilona Andrews

Diamond Fire by Ilona Andrews

by 4 Comments

Sapphire Flames, book 4 in the series (novellas only count as half instalments) and the continuation of the series came out in August (on my birthday – thank you, House Andrews, for your benevolence!). In the months leading up to that release, I wanted to re-read the previous books, so everything was fresh in my mind. The plan was that my husband would read them too (how am I married to a man who just simply refuses to read the same things I like and […]
