#Excerpt + #Giveaway: CARMILLA by Kim Turrisi

#Excerpt + #Giveaway: CARMILLA by Kim Turrisi

So guys. I had NO IDEA there was a web series called Carmilla starting in 2014. I also had no idea there was a vampire book called Carmilla predating Bram Stoker’s Dracula by 26 years. Honestly, I feel like I’m getting an Education. Some background… The original Carmilla was published in 1872 by the Irish author Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu. It featured a young woman who became the latest target of a female vampire who seemed to have a thing for teenage girls, especially biting their breasts. So yeah, some old-school homophobia there, demonstrating the evils of lesbians. So it was […]

#BookReview: EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN by Jessica Redmerski

#BookReview: EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN by Jessica Redmerski

This book is over 600 pages. You’re probably wondering why you want to read something so huge. Let me give you some reasons. First of all, the book is divided into three parts, so you could mentally think of it as three books if you wanted. This makes the page count a bit easier to stomach, if big books do intimidate you. (And I’ll admit, with so many books on my TBR, I only occasionally read books over 400 pages.) The stage was set quite well, starting with Thais’ POV, giving us the backstory for how this dystopian tale came […]

#BookReview + #Excerpt: FROM THE EARTH TO THE SHADOWS (Valkyrie #2) by Amanda Hocking + #Giveaway

#BookReview + #Excerpt: FROM THE EARTH TO THE SHADOWS (Valkyrie #2) by Amanda Hocking + #Giveaway

Only a few months ago, I reviewed the first book in the duology, Between the Blade and the Heart. Hocking has written a series featuring a Valkyrie-in-training who finds herself in the awful position of saving humanity. Quite a lot of pressure, isn’t it? This duology is for fans of mythology, so if that’s something you’re interested in, but you haven’t read the first book, check out my review first, where you can also read the first chapter to get a taste of the writing! Picking up a few days after the ending of the first book, Malin is off alone […]

#BookReview: BOUND TO YOU by Alyssa Brandon

#BookReview: BOUND TO YOU by Alyssa Brandon

It’s been a long while since I read a werewolf book. This particular one scratched a very particular itch: a hate-to-love story with a grumpy hero and a sassy heroine who keeps pushing his buttons. And yes, yes, there is obviously some alpha male stuff going on, especially with what I can only describe as kidnapping, but Megan learns to give as good as she gets. Also, yeah, it’s a nice guilty fantasy of mine, so while I appreciated some things would be problematic in the real world, I’m going to use It’s a Werewolf Thing as an excuse for […]

#BookReview & #Excerpt: BETWEEN THE BLADE AND THE HEART by Amanda Hocking + #Giveaway

#BookReview & #Excerpt: BETWEEN THE BLADE AND THE HEART by Amanda Hocking + #Giveaway

It was a strange, cold thing to realize I was born to be a murderer. Fun fact. Krigare is the Swedish word for “warrior”. And that’s who we’re introduced to. Or at least, that’s what Malin, a Valkyrie-in-training is going for. Her life is a mix of learning to “return” the immortal as per instructions from a higher power and attending a special college for those working in the paranormal sector. That is, until she learns her mother went off track years before, creating a domino effect of misfortune. The characters were an interesting mix. I liked Malin for her […]
