About the third chapter in I remember stating aloud “This is a very weird story!” That’s saying a lot from someone who writes the type of stuff that I do, but it’s true. At first, you don’t know what going on, but it’s fascinating! And when you do figure out what’s going on you’re hooked! …
I haven’t read a good murder mystery in a while but The Guest List by Lucy Foley definitely was just the thing for a dark and stormy mood. It’s atmospheric to be sure! I would recommend reading on a bleak day wrapped in a cozy sweater 🙂 The bride – The plus one – The best man – The wedding …
I wanted something witchy. Something a bit spooky but also with a romance. Oh boy, did The Winter Witch by Paula Brackston deliver. The witches were indeed very witchy and the romance was pretty darn epic. The plot was intense and the “bad guy” was very bad indeed. In her small early nineteenth century Welsh …
If you loved The Starless Sea you will want to read The Ten Thousand Doors of January! In fact it was recommend by Erin Morgenstern. I’ve been in a bit of a reading rut so I downloaded a preview to my Kindle app to give it a try and before I even finished the first …
The first book in this series was told from the point of view of Clay Cooper an old before his time seen it all ex-mercenary. This story is viewed through the eyes of an impressionable, never been more than a days ride from home, young bard named Tam. I really enjoyed Tam’s story and through …
Ever since reading The Coroner’s Daughter I’ve been in a historical mystery mood. Deanna Raybourn’s Veronica Speedwell series has fit that mood very nicely. Set in 1887 London, Veronica is a woman who rejects society’s ideas about how a woman should act, think, dress….pretty much everything. Along with her (very hot) companion Stoker, Veronica gets …
Wayward Son by Rainbow Rowell is the sequel to Carry On. And if that statement has started an ear-worm of a certain Kansas song then you are not alone! Something I suspect was not a coincidence. It’s appropriate considering this is a story about a road trip. A crazy, careening, out of control road trip …

This book ticked most of boxes for things that I love in a story. Murder mystery? (check) Single father + precocious daughter trope? (check) Set in Regency era? (check) Regency era Ireland? (had to make a new box to check for that one!) A very sweetly portrayed slow burn romance with father’s medical student? …
Not your typical beach blanket read, however, I did read it when I was in Maui and loved every word! Equal parts hilarious and heart warming, Kings of the Wyld is a treat! I’ve already fancast all the members of Saga for the inevitable movie. 🙂 Clay Cooper and his band were once the best …
