I’m completely hooked on Nalini Singh’s expansive Psy-Changeling universe. In this near-future world, the psy run the world with cool efficiency. They have powers ranging from telekinesis to foresight. The Psy have shunned all emotion with the Silence protocol. Any psy who shows emotion is reconditioned, which means a full lobotomy level brain wipe. They go to such extremes because their powers have driven people to homicidal rampages. At the start of the series, a Psy council member wants to partner with the San Francisco […]

She’s Not Afraid to Catch Feelings

Grave Reservations by Cherie Priest

by 1 Comment

I was really excited to get my hands on this. It had good reviews and its quirky nature seemed up my alley. And it…mostly met expectations. Let’s unpack… For all intents and purposes, this is a cozy mystery and I don’t usually do cozies. The relentlessly sunny outlook despite the presence of a dead body, the sexless flirting and banter, the stuffy settings and predictable plots. But even though this has some of that, it was written by a younger person who isn’t trying too […]

CBR13 Bingo: Home (so many of the various characters come from very unstable family backgrounds and are only too happy to settle in Mystic Bayou, having finally find somewhere they can properly call home) This is going to be a bulk review for the first six stories (four novels, two novellas) in the Mystic Bayou paranormal romance series by Molly Harper. I listened to all the books in audio, as they are available as part of the Audible Plus catalogue. Considering that I already pay […]

Leopard lovers

Mine to Possess (Psy-Changeling #4) by Nalini Singh

Hostage to Pleasure (Psy-Changeling #5) by Nalini Singh

by Leave a Comment

I returned to Nalini Singh’s Psy-Changeling series after loving the first three books. In this shared universe, the Dark River leopard changelings (aka shifters) control the greater Sam Francisco area. They have pissed off the Psy council who basically run the world with their psychic powers. Some of the psychics have defected to the shifters and messing with the power balance. It’s so interesting to meet the love interests with the political elements woven into their story. Clay in Mine to Possess is a Dark […]

I know I’m late to the party, but I’m so here for any books written by Nalini Singh. I’ve been meaning to read her work for years. Last year for Cannonball Read 11, I got hooked with a novella in the Burning Up anthology. I started reviewing the Guild Hunter series with Angels’ Blood but had my eye on the Psy-Changeling books the whole time. When the new year rolled around, I knew it was time and devoured the first three books in the series.   […]

Weird. Just Weird.

The Vanishers by Heidi Julavits

CW: mention of suicide One of my favorite jokes in the final season of the tv show 30 Rock was Liz Lemon’s revelation that she did a one-person play in college of which her student newspaper reviewed as “too confusing to be offensive.” Switching the word “offensive” to “appreciate” and you’d have my feelings on this book. There’s a lot to like about this one. Heidi Julavits has a healthy understanding of relationships, maternal-child bonds and how difficult they are to sunder. I appreciated the ambiguity she allows […]
