House hunting and Lessons in Leadership for Vampires

Out of House and Home by Drew Hayes

by Leave a Comment

Bingo 7: Home This one was just kind of fortuitous; I wanted to read Fred the Vampire Accountant #7 which has just recently been published, and it just so happened to be perfect for this square, being titled Out of House and Home. It’s not just the title either, the book is actually about losing and finding both literal and metaphorical home. The book opens a little while after the final events of book 6 (a wedding); Fred and company are getting back to their […]

“Polka. Will Never. Die!”

Dead Beat by Jim Butcher

All right. Look. I don’t know how to talk about this book without it getting spoilery as heck, so if you are thinking you might read this book, then just skip this here review if you don’t want plot moments spoiled, things that made me gasp and giggle. Because I have got to talk about it. First things first, this review is going to be an ode to Butters, who essentially in this novel is elevated to the status of a relucant Watson to Dresden’s […]

A weird book I had a lot of things to say about.

A Discovery of Witches (All Souls, #1) by Deborah Harkness

Oh wow I have so many things to say. The vast majority of the time when I go to write a review I have to sit there and think of things to say, when my instinct is just like, I had feelings okay and now you want me to put them into words? But the words are just wanting to flow for this one. So first, because context is important, three things about this book and also me: 1. It was free. A friend was […]

“Are you always a smartass?’ Nope. Sometimes I’m asleep.”

Blood Rites (Dresden Files #6) by Jim Butcher

All right people. I am here to crawl out beneath 8 (!) unwritten book reviews. Woof! I’m not sure if I’ve ever been this behind before in my history as a Cannonballer. Why the hiatus? Well, I am working on writing my own book (!!) and thinking I should prioritize THAT writing over THIS WRITING but spoiler, I haven’t done great at either. So I’m going to refocus and remember that practicing writing IS working on my book (just from sideways) so book reviews “count” […]

Heaven Goes to War with Heaven and Mummies try not to fall apart

Grave Importance by Vivian Shaw

by Leave a Comment

I’d kind of been putting off reading Grave Importance because it’s the conclusion of a series I’ve enjoyed. This was a good ending to the series, and I’m sad it’s over, but at the same time there are a few things I wish had gotten a little more attention. The basic story has two lines that of course merge part way through; first there’s Greta’s in which she takes over a really fancy mummy clinic for a friend for a few months and naturally discovers […]
