Raimbault’s The Death Mask was one crazy ride. It was like walking down a lazy country road listening to a elder tell stories of their past, replete with the rambling and penchant for repetition. Don’t get me wrong. I enjoy my gramps’ stories, rambling and all. Hey, everyone loves gossip. For a book, it […]

Book Review- Constructed of Magic and Other Poems on the Immortality of the Human Spirit by Louis Alan Swartz
I really rather enjoyed Swartz’ collection of poems in the book Constructed of Magic, despite many of the poems involving rhyming . Rhyming poems are usually a big turn-off for me. Many of the poems in this book dealt with a difficult topic for most people- death. Yet, Swartz’ take on things is more light-hearted. […]

Book Review- The Ashes of Waterloo by Olivia Andem
Reviewed for Reader’s Favourite Andem’s Ashes of Waterloo isn’t my typical fare. I’m not the biggest fan if historical romance (or romance in general), but I’ve been working to expand my reading horizons. I do greatly enjoy historical fiction in general, and this book provided a great story. The title is what captured my attention […]

Book Review- The Heartbeat Thief by AJ Krafton
Reviewed for Reader’s Favourite Krafton’s The Heartbeat Thief was not at all the book I expected. Now, that can be a good thing or a bad thing. In this case, it was a very good thing. It is a story of the greatest of loves, of sacrifice, and of lessons harshly learned. It is a […]

Book Review- The Light Who Binds by Lilo Abernathy
The Light who Binds by Lilo Abernathy is the second in a series. The writing style drew me in right away, and I found myself enjoying the story despite a growing disenchantment with books that involve vampires (and werewolves). I’m beginning to have the same disenchantment with books using fae, though there’s still so much […]
