I started the Mercy Thompson series when Moon Called was selected for the VF book club in 2015. I enjoyed the first book but got caught up with other urban fantasy series from Ilona Andrews and Kim Harrison. Over the summer, I was reminded of the series during a virtual Mocha Girls Read meeting. I decided to dive back in with the audio narration and ended up reading three in a row. Mercedes (Mercy) Thompson isn’t looking for trouble in the tri-cities area of Washington. […]

Love in the time of chaos

Chaos Burning by Lauren Dane

by Leave a Comment

Chaos Burning is the second Bound by Magick novel by Lauren Dane. I LOVED the first book, Hearts of Darkness, and hunted down the entire series. This go-round, we meet a new witch named Lark Jaansen. She has been kicking ass and taking names in Los Angeles. After the dangerous attack in the first book, Lark arrives in Seattle to teach these witches how to fight dirty. Just in time for a big bad of apocalyptic proportions to show up. It likes to devour Others […]

A moody Vampire falls in love with an Ice Fey-Valkyrie

Untouchable (Immortals After Dark Book 7) by Kresley Cole

by Leave a Comment

I’m still deep into the Immortals After Dark series. I absolutely breezed through the four books featuring the brothers Wroth. Bless Robert Petkoff and his gripping narration. I really feel like all these characters are distinct when listening. The Wroths are from Eastern Europe. They were turned vampires during a deadly war. Each brother broods in his own way. Untouchable, which is part of the anthology Deep Kiss of Winter, is the seventh book that focuses on Murdoch Wroth. He seems to be the most dependable […]

Magic Meltdown

Ever After by Kim Harrison

by Leave a Comment

I finally finished Ever After during the spring Dewey’s read-a-thon. It was a doozy of a long read with nearly 13 hours on audio. It was kinda perfect for a reading marathon. This is the eleventh book in The Hollows series by Kim Harrison and this one doesn’t hold back. Beware of mild spoilers for the previous books below! Rachel Morgan is a former government agent turned private detective of sorts. She lives with her best friends Jenks, a sassy pixie, and Ivy, a devilishly […]

Kicking It by Faith Hunter and Kalayna Price

by 1 Comment

When the ‘rona hit, I found it hard to concentrate on a book. If you’re in a slump, I highly recommend trying an anthology from your favorite genre. Kicking It was edited by Faith Hunter and Kalayna Price. I haven’t read any Jane Yellowrock books, but her story made me order the first book. I stumbled across the anthology more so for Price who wrote the Alex Craft books, which was my be favorite series from last year. I took a lot of breaks between […]

The dangers of not doing research before traveling abroad

Wayward Son by Rainbow Rowell

I can’t even with these boys. These BOYS!  They can’t seem to use their words with each other.  Baz can be smooth as hell when he wants to, but he and Simon have a verbal block between them, and I can’t even.  I want to smack them both upside the head, or give them a truth serum or something.  They need to talk about their FEELINGS and they just WON’T!   Anyway, we’re in America now, and on a road trip!  Simon, Penny, and Baz […]
