So in preparation for Queen of Shadows to release TODAY, I reread all of the preceding books in the series to refresh my memory and to just prepare myself for this long awaited release! As I reread, I became just CONSUMED with all these thoughts because I freaking adore this series. If you haven’t read, PLEASE do! I am a huge fantasy lover and I adore the world, the magic, the epic fantasy feel that emanates from the pages and consumes your heart. Sarah’s […]

Audiobook Review: Sweet Evil by Wendy Higgins

The Sound: I think it was a mistake for me to listen to this one on audio… the whiny aspect of the main character Anna was magnified by actually hearing it.

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? The premise sucked me in! I love a good thriller! Plus, I really enjoyed Jennifer Lynn Barnes’ book The Naturals! My Thoughts: So basically I should go watch Veronica Mars and Scandal ASAP because I really enjoyed this one! And if those two comparisons are accurate, then I bet I’d love those shows too! In The Fixer, Tess is shuttled off to live with her sister in DC. The change is abrupt and she’s not a fan of […]
