Payback's a Witch

Can I live in Thistle Grove?

Payback's a Witch by Lana Harper

December 31, 2022 by teresaelectro 1 Comment

Lana Harper’s Payback’s a Witch introduces us to the magical small town of Thistle Grove. Four families of witches founded the place. They compete in The Gauntlet every few years. The winning family is bestowed with good fortune. The wealthy and pretentious Blackmoore family has won for decades. The Arbiter of the competition is the Harlow family. Emmy Harlow left town after high school and never wanted to come back. Her breakup with Gareth Blackmoore soured her on the place. She also was sick of […]

Hooked on the Alpha & Omega series

Alpha & Omega by Patricia Briggs

Cry Wolf by Patricia Briggs

Hunting Ground by Patricia Briggs

Fair Game by Patricia Briggs

December 31, 2022 by teresaelectro 2 Comments

The natural progression of reading the Mercy Thompson novels was diving into the Alpha & Omega series. Anna is an omega wolf, which is very rare to find. She mates with Charles, the stoic Native American werewolf enforcer for the entire US territory. He is who you call upon when alpha wolves get out of line. He is the son of Bran, the Marrock. He is the ruler of the US werewolves and helped raise Mercy. Charles is sort of a brother to Mercy in […]

My 2022 Mercy Thompson binge

Night Broken by Patricia Briggs

Fire Touched by Patricia Briggs

Silence Fallen by Patricia Briggs

Storm Cursed by Patricia Briggs

December 31, 2022 by teresaelectro Leave a Comment

I was spacing out the Mercy Thompson series over the last few Cannonball Read challenges. Not this go-round. I got hooked and read five in a row! I will keep the spoilers light, but there are some things you may want to keep as a surprise if you haven’t read this series. Night Broken sees Mercy dealing with an unwanted house guest: Christy, Adam’s ex-wife. She has a hell of a stalker and needs the pack’s protection. Out of jealousy, the stalker burned down a […]

My first Nora Roberts

Dance Upon the Air by Nora Roberts

December 29, 2022 by teresaelectro 2 Comments

I’ve been collecting Nora Roberts’s novels for a few years. My first acquisition was Dance Upon the Air, the first in the Three Sisters Island trilogy. As a lover of romance and witchy protagonists, I knew I’d love it. We meet Nell as she moves to the Three Sisters island. She isn’t sure how she ended up here. It’s almost like she was drawn to the place. The book toys whether this was magic or coincidence. All she wants is a fresh start after a mysterious […]

My love for Seanan McGuire continues

Late Eclipses by Seanan McGuire

Discount Armageddon by Seanan McGuire

December 29, 2022 by teresaelectro Leave a Comment

I’m slowly working my way through Seanan McGuire’s body of work. Her books are exactly the kind of urban fantasy I love. She has a way of writing witty heroines who put their lives on the line for others. I decided to put the InCryptid series into the rotation. I bought the first book on audiobook on sale ages ago. I also have been desperate to read novels I already own. It was a win-win. Discount Armageddon introduces us to Verity Price. She comes from a long […]

I wasn’t ready for the Alex Craft series to end.

Grave War by Kalayna Price

November 14, 2022 by teresaelectro Leave a Comment

CBR14 Bingo Square: Shadow I’m a big fan of witches and magic mysteries, so I got immediately hooked on the Alex Craft novels. In book one, Alex uses her magic to raise shades, which aren’t quite ghosts. More like the memory imprint of a person after they pass. It’s a very handy skill to have a shade testify in their murder trial. Alex has been quite a few personal revelations, a love triangle, and an angry fae queen by the time we reach the final […]
