Turns of Fate by Anne Bishop
Anne Bishop is someone whose novels I consider highly readable and engaging but I also don’t recommend her too often for a few reasons. As I was reading this one, I was reminded of how much sexual abuse is a part of the worlds she writes. Now to be clear, the abusers always get punished and get what’s due to them but it’s a major component. There are also far more people who are decent and good, and do the right thing but violence against […]
The Dream Thieves: Book II of The Raven Cycle by Maggie Stiefvater
I suppose I’ll get at least the next book in the series; I’m not particularly in love with it, but I don’t hate it (at least at this point) to stop reading. But I’m going to not make any decisions on buying the last book until I’ve read the third. My opinions of the characters have not really changed all that much; Ronan, Noah and Gainsey are my three favorites. Noah is weird bit likable in a harmless kind of way, Ronan is the poster […]

Chasing the Boogeyman by Richard Chizmar
A happy and blessed Thanksgiving to all who observe! Here is my list of readings that I got to in November that didn’t merit a longer review… The Golden Cage*** Part 1: Ma’am, wyd? Part 2: Good for her! Part 3: Good for…her? Also, kinda sad. Epilogue: Good for her! This is a good, trashy beach read. I just wish there had been less on Faye’s shady past- which wasn’t filled in well-and more on the machinations to destroy her husband’s business. Also, I’m not […]
Kitchen Table Tarot by Melissa Cynova
This is another entry in the Kitchen Table series by Melissa Cynova. This book, Kitchen Table Tarot, is an introduction to tarot cards and tarot reading. Cynova breaks the book down into three main parts: an introduction to tarot and tarot reading in general, her interpretation of the cards and how she reads, and a guide on how to do readings for other people. Overall, I felt that the the first and third parts had enough overlap that having multiple chapters at the start and end […]
