Book Review : The Irresistible Urge to Fall for Your Enemy
In my advanced age, I’ve come to prefer friends-to-lovers over enemies-to-lovers. I’ve found the latter to be a trope that’s nearly impossible to execute well, often rushing past the trust and transformation that make these romances truly…
Book Review : The Undercutting Of Rosie and Adam
The Undercutting of Rosie and Adam tries very hard to make its demi-god main character, Rosie, likeable and relatable, but it falls woefully short with its six foot five beauty. Though Rosie is supposed to be every bit as fiery as her red hair and…
Book Review: Snake-Eater
Selena leaves her emotionally abusive relationship with only $27, her dog Copper, and nowhere obvious to go. She heads into the desert looking for her eccentric Aunt Amelia, and instead finds herself in a town that knows everyone’s business, a house full of secrets, and…
Book Review : Tailored Realities
I’m going to be honest, I’m not sure what I was thinking when I requested Tailored Realities. There are two wolves inside of me: The one that hates short stories and the one that loves Brandon Sanderson and wants to read all of his work. The second wolf came out on…
Book Review : Blood for the Undying Throne
Blood for the Undying Throne is the sequel to one of my favorite books of last year, Blood of the Old Kings. That first novel in The Bleeding Empire series featured one of the most unique magic systems I’ve encountered in a fantasy book in years, where…
Peak: The Chaotic, Cozy Mountain Climbing Game You Didn’t Know You Needed
An old friend from my Overwatch days popped into Discord the other week (shout out to you, Nathan) and casually mentioned a game called Peak. I’d never even heard of it. My interest was—you guessed it—peaked (ba-dum-tis). I…
15 Games that Deserve More Love
Every gamer has that one hill they’re willing to die on—the game everyone else slept on, hated, or dismissed—but you’ll defend until the end of time. For me, that list of games I'm ready to defend is…kind of long. Over the years, I’ve fallen hard for games that…
Book Review : The Princess Knight
From the title, I expected a feminist take on The Princess Bride. What I got instead—as the author’s note later confirmed—was a Celtic-medieval fantasy version of Legally Blonde that takes itself seriously. It’s an inspired premise, but unfortunately it didn't…
Top Ten Tuesday : Fast-Paced SFF Books to Cure Any Reading Slump
We’ve all been there—the dreaded reading slump. That dark time when your TBR pile glares at you accusingly, asking, “Why can’t you just sit down and read?” Or worse, “Why can’t you even finish a single book?” Sometimes the cure is…
Book Review : The Jasad Crown
The Jasad Crown is the sequel to The Jasad Heir and the final book in the Scorched Throne duology, which comes to a stunning close. I was so excited for this release that I reread the previous entry, one of the most successful portrayals of enemies-to-lovers I’ve ever…
Book Review : Behooved

Top Ten Tuesday : Fantasy Novels with Animal Companions
This week’s Top Ten Tuesday theme is all about animal companions—real or fantastical. Naturally, I had to veer into the fantasy realm, so I'm sharing fantasy novels with animal companions. Here are some of my favorite magical sidekicks:…
Book Review : The Two Lies of Faven Sythe
Well, the author who single-handedly made me like science fiction has done it again with The Two Lies of Faven Sythe. The second I saw that Megan E. O’Keefe had written another book, I had to read it as soon as humanly possible. And it did not disappoint,…

Book Review : Check & Mate
Whenever I want to read something light, fun, and quirky, I have a tendency to reach for an Ali Hazelwood novel. I enjoy her brand of humor and like reading her portrayal of women in typically male dominated fields. Check & Mate is no exception to these hallmarks of…

Stellar Blade : Stellar Potential
When I first saw the trailer for Stellar Blade, I was intrigued, mostly in spite of myself. Another game featuring an overly sexualized female protagonist catering to a male audience—do we really need yet another one of those? Well, months later, the demo rolled…

I saw so many positive reviews for this book and I was truly wondering if we were reading the same book. I'm so glad I wasn't the only one who felt this way about the book and the main characters. 😂 Felt a little crazy.
