This is a pretty fun new adult fantasy duology that I enjoyed quite a bit and really don’t see recommend a lot! Continue to read for reviews for both the first and second book! The Frozen Crown This is going to be a pretty short review because I am not sure how to get into this book without spoiling the HELL out of it and I don’t want to do that. SO here we go The Frozen Crown follows our heroine, Askia, the rightful queen […]

Guess I have an extra format to collect Fangirl in now

Cath Avery thought she’d be sharing a room with her twin sister Wren when they went to college (isn’t that the benefit of having a twin?), but her sister has cut her hair into a cute pixie cut and is looking forward to reinventing herself at college. She’s already friends with her roommate and can’t wait to move away from home and their anxious father. Cath, on the other hand, is deeply outside of her comfort zone. Online, she’s an undisputed queen, an incredibly prolific […]

Don’t judge a book by its cover

Griz by Eddie Cleveland

by 3 Comments

I’ll be the first to admit guilt: I had zero expectations about this book. The blurb sounded mildly entertaining, a comedic fake relationship romance with a college hockey backdrop. Strike that. I had low expectations. I totally judged GRIZ by E. Cleveland by two things that really shouldn’t have any bearing on the quality of a book: the title, the cover and the fact that it was a Kindle Unlimited selection. Okay, that was three things, but bear with me here. Griz is the name […]

I think I loved it even more on a re-read

My original, and extremely enthusiastic review of this book, can be found here. This was my first re-read (of what I’m sure will be many) and this time, I chose to listen to the audio book. When I first listened to the sample available on Audible, I was honestly not sure if I liked Ramon de Ocampo’s narration, but after seeing the audio book of this highlighted on a bunch of best of the year lists, I decided to give him a chance. Of course, the […]

It’s piles and piles of emotional homework forever if you ever want to qualify as a grown-up

Official book description: For Penny Lee, high school was a total nonevent. Her friends were okay, her grades were fine, and while she’d somehow landed a boyfriend, they never managed to know much about each other. Now Penny is heading to college in Austin, Texas, to learn how to become a writer. It’s seventy-nine miles and a zillion light years away from everything she can’t wait to leave behind. Sam’s stuck. Literally, figuratively, emotionally, financially. He works at a café and sleeps there too, on […]

“One should not make a pet out of a wild beast.”

Damsel by Elana K. Arnold

cbrbingo11 – Cannonballer says! In the kingdom of Harding, heir to the throne Emory must go through the ritual every king has had to take on before being granted the crown: slay a dragon, rescue the damsel captive there, and make her your queen.  Emory conquers this task as he conquers all of his conquests, and the young woman he takes back to his kingdom is like the ones who came before: no memory of her past or her time in the dragon’s lair, nameless, […]
