I snooze, I lose. I was hoping to be the first one to publish a review of Skin Game, but Emmalita/Rochelle beat me to it. Standard spoiler warning! This is book 15 in the series. You don’t want to start here. If you’re not caught up with the series, you may want to skip this review, because while I’m going to try to not spoil this actual book, I can’t actually avoid spoilers for some of the previous ones. It took me a long time to get hooked on these […]
Airships and mercenaries and bandits and adventure
Part One: The Kraken King and the Scribbling Spinster – 4 stars Part Two: The Kraken King and the Abominable Worm – 4 stars Part Three: The Kraken King and the Fox’s Den – 4.5 stars Part Four: The Kraken King and the Inevitable Abduction – 4 stars Because The Kraken King is being published in eight weekly instalments, I’m going to blog the first four as one book, and the final four as another, mainly because I don’t want to wait until I’ve read all the parts to share my […]
I’m glad I don’t have the sort of birthday parties Harry Dresden gets thrown
Dudes, this is book 14 in the series. Do NOT start with this one. Do NOT read this review if you haven’t read books 12 and 13, there will be spoilers, because it’s pretty much unavoidable when reviewing this book. If you’re interested in the series, I would recommend starting with nr 4, Summer Knight. I would also like to heartily endorse the audio books, narrated excellently by James Marsters. I’m hiding the review behind the link so as to avoid anyone being inadvertently spoiled. If you, however, have read […]
I’m not sure I’d look for a new start in a town called Lovecraft
Tyler, Kinsey and Bode Locke move with their mother to Keyhouse, their uncle’s mansion in Lovecraft, Massachusetts, after their father, a school guidance councillor, is brutally murdered by a couple of Tyler’s classmates. The entire Locke family are naturally extremely affected by the event, especially the eldest brother Tyler, who feels responsible for the event, and for not managing to rescue both his parents. Kinsey, his sister, was hiding and keeping their youngest brother Bode safe, but she’s suffering with survivor’s guilt and dealing with […]
Stories about love and death. No songs, really. The title’s a bit misleading.
Overall rating: 3.5 stars This is an anthology, where all the stories are focused around love and death. I know, extremely surprising, based on the title. I will write a tiny bit about each of the stories, and conclude with my general impression of the anthology as a whole. It’s a really long post, what with me writing about 17 different stories. If you’re interested in my write-up, the review is here.
She may be the daughter of gods, but she’s pretty dumb
2.5 stars Disclaimer! I was granted an ARC of this book from HarperTeen via NetGalley in return for a fair and honest review. Isadora is the youngest mortal daughter of Isis and Osiris, yup, those guys, the Egyptian gods. As seasons passed, and their believers started dying away, Isis found a solution to make sure she, her husband and all their immortal family still have worshippers, by having a mortal child every twenty years. She keeps them close, then sends them out into the world to manage on […]
