I really hadn’t heard much about this one and decided to listen to it on audio after I read Tonya’s review of it. It sounded interesting and I haven’t read much steampunk so I wanted to check it out. I’m so glad I did! It was such an enjoyable book!! Katharine Tulman is sent to her uncle’s estate to report back to her aunt that her uncle is mentally ill — essentially because her aunt is greedy and wants to take […]

Why Did I Read? It sounded really interesting! The synopsis grabbed my attention with the talk of a “dangerous society”. My Thoughts: This is a solid example of how sometimes audiobooks just don’t work well for certain books. There are secret groups, two in particular that oppose each other. The Circle and the… crap I don’t remember the name of the other group but I kept getting the two confused. And that was a problem because I couldn’t keep straight who […]

No one, it appears can save her. Thanks to a guard loyal to Queen Eleanor, Scarlet makes an escape. To be honest, […]

I’m really excited for Midnight Thief and when Livia Blackburne asked if I’d like to read the prequel novella, Poison Dance, I was all for it! Now, novellas are tricky, and it can especially be tricky to introduce a whole new fantasy world in such a short amount of time. However, Poison Dance did a great job and I was immediately sucked into the world. We meet James, an assassin in the Assassin’s Guild. He’s deadly, he kills for a […]

Oh my goodness, wow. This book was simply amazing. How do I even start to put into words how much I loved this? This is a story that takes place during World World II and tells of the incredible friendship between two girls that may not have met if not for the war. I honestly don’t want to say that much more because I don’t want to give anything away. Trust me when I say the story is awesome. Yes, […]
