I have eagerly anticipated this installment of the Fever series, as Mac and Barrons are two of my favorite fantasy romance characters. Mac has grown away from the Barbie from the south stereotype who we met in volume one, evolving into a fighter trying to save humanity, and more importantly those she loves. Barrons is still a grunting man-beast Continue reading “This Chick Read: Feverborn by Karen Marie Moning”

If you are a huge fan of Ilona Andrews, then you have become addicted, as I have, to the Kate Daniels series. Kate is a kick ass warrior woman who fights crime, solves mysteries and stands up for the underdog, using her fists, feet, sword and maybe a little boost of magic juice. The first book, Magic Bites was published in 2007, and since then, we have watched Kate grow Continue reading “This Chick Read: Currans POV (free download) by Gordon Andrews”
I have read Helen Harper’s Blood Destiny and Bo Blackman series, am a fan of her writing style, which is very consistent. Strong female lead(Check!), a hidden trait(check!), a ménage of friends who help her fight crime Continue reading “This Chick Read: Gifted Thief (Highland Magic #1) by Helen Harper”
This book was released in October 2015, but the publisher, Booktrope, sent me a copy through NetGalley to review. I read a lot of paranormal romance/fantasy novels. The description for this book sounded intriguing, Continue reading “This Chick Read: Rising Shadows by Bridget Blackwood”
Snow Like Ashes is the debut novel by Sara Raasch in her YA fantasy trilogy.

It is told from 16 year old Meira’s perspective, and through her eyes Continue reading “This Chick Read: Snow Like Ashes by Sara Raasch”
This is my first novel and review for 2016. I am very partial to fantasy novels and this series is one of my favorites. However, it is a very intellectual fantasy series and sometimes borders on needing a Philosophy or Mathmatics major to completely grasp. Cast in Honor was no different, and for the first 100 pages I wondered what direction Ms. Sagara was leading me and could we please get there quicker. Continue reading “This Chick Read: Michelle Sagara’s Cast in Honor”
Over the Christmas holiday I needed to branch out and read a novel that didn’t have a man’s naked chest on the cover. I was in the middle of reading Kristen Callihan‘s Game on series, and was finding it really hard to put down. The men were fine, the women were strong and the sex was great. However, as much as I love the romance genre, I couldn’t bring myself to flaunt those naked male chests, as fabulous as they were, Continue reading “This Chick Read: Bewitched and Betrayed by Lisa Shearin”
I was reading my morning blog by Cleopatra Loves Books and she referenced a challenge by another blogger BookerTalk to post a brief note about the book you were reading as 2016 started. I will confess. I fell asleep early, but had just started reading Michelle Sagara’s Cast in Honor, which is book #11 in the Chronicles of Elantra series. I am also supposed to include a photo of myself reading the book, but since I’m reading it on my IPad, here is the artwork from the cover.
I challenge you all to also post a brief mention on your blog about what book you are reading as the New Year starts. Tweet about it. Let’s start a revolution! #readinto16. I’ll let you know my thoughts on this book in a few days.
Cheers, and Happy New Year!
