Review: In Darkness We Must Abide by Rhiannon Fraser

Posted May 31, 2013 by Wendy in Reviews / 1 Comment

I haven’t really read any serials before so this was kind of a new experience for me, reading these episodes. At the beginning of each episode is a snippet of a scene that is happening after the events in these five episodes. The scene unfolds with each episode and ties them together. As this was told in episodes, I’m going to format my review as reactions to each episode. This will be spoiler free, so my discussions may become less as the […]

Review: Don’t Bite the Bridesmaid by Tiffany Allee

You all should know that I can be very picky when it comes to vampire romance stories. Sometimes it can just be so cliche and overdone. (Note: I am not a Twilight fan. Sorry to those who are!) However, Don’t Bite the Bridesmaid was a hilarious, fun, angst-free read! I really enjoyed it!

Review: Fields of Elysium by A.B. Whelan

Posted May 20, 2013 by Wendy in Reviews / 3 Comments

So I had been on kind of a contemporary NA kick and thought I’d switch it up a little with some sci-fi. I received a copy of Fields of Elysium awhile back for a R2R and thought it’d be perfect for some fun sci-fi reading. Wellll, I didn’t enjoy it. At all. The premise is pretty interesting — Molly discovers a secret portal to a new planet Arkana. In Arkana, the technology is way more advanced than on Earth. They […]
