Seven Deadly Shadows: A Book Review
As Dorothy Gale would say: "Yokai and shinigami and kitsune, oh my!" (Wait, you don't remember her saying that? Okay okay okay, so I might've taken a few creative liberties...Please don’t sue me, MGM Studios 💦). But all slightly-altered Wizard of Oz quotes aside, if you're on the prowl for an urban fantasy set in Japan starring any of the aforementioned otherworldly creatures, then Seven Deadly Shadows by Courtney Alameda and Valynne E. Maetani is the book for you!
To Best the Boys by Mary Weber: A Book Review
We all know the story: boy meets girl. Boy falls in love with girl. Boy marries girl. The end. Drop the curtain and roll the credits. We could even play a cute little pop song and call it 'Happily Ever After' if we're feeling charitable. But in To Best the Boys by Mary Weber, we explore a vastly different ending: Boy meets girl. Girl decides to pursue higher education. Girl risks her life in a deadly, all-boys scholarship competition.
House of Salt and Sorrows by Erin A. Craig: A Book Review
Have you ever ordered a large Ultra Cheese Dominos pizza with one kilogram of cheese on it, and then proceeded to voraciously consume the whole thing by yourself in one sitting? No? Oh good. Because uh…*starts to sweat nervously*…neither have I. That would be a totally irresponsible thing for a responsible adult, such as myself, to do. And believe it or not, House of Salt and Sorrows by Erin A. Craig has a lot in common with this COMPLETELY HYPOTHETICAL situation; it sounds like a wonderful idea in theory, but is decidedly less so in actual execution.
A Heart So Fierce and Broken by Brigid Kemmerer: A Book Review
Do you remember that scene in Anne of Green Gables where Anne accidentally serves her friend, Diana, currant wine instead of raspberry cordial? Well, reading A Heart So Fierce and Broken by Brigid Kemmerer was kind of like that. I was expecting one thing, and what I got was vastly, intoxicatingly different.
