No, you aren't imagining it. Book reviews on my website have vanished!
But where did they go, you may be asking? Simply, I am focusing my website on me and my own works. Shocking I know. The book reviews are not going away though, far from it! Instead, you can still find them all on Goodreads, or the compilation of my four most recent reads in my Substack.
I enjoy writing book reviews, which can come with it's own tight rope of author vs. reader politics. But I am an Read more of this blog post »

| This novel wasn’t what I expected it to be. “My Sister, the Serial Killer” reads like a novel in verse, with short chapters focused on central themes and loosely on a forward trajectory. And while I can’t say I found this novel to be blackly comic, t ...more | |
“Life was strangely glorious like that sometimes; just as it could be cruel and unforgiving, so could it be a mysterious wonderland of unexpected joy and chance encounters.”
― The Heart of the Forest
― The Heart of the Forest
“All this time you’ve spoken to it, looked into your soul, and spied that darkness lurking and twisting through the fabric of all that you are. You fed it nothing but your hatred, your anger and guilt, shame, regret, and yes, your loneliness. It grew fat on all the things you wanted to be rid of. You did not suspect? Did the Tallis never consider the darkness within was looking back? Learning? And growing strong, ever stronger. Stupid, foolish girl. The Tallis never knew! Ignoring it all, stuffing all the bad and ugly things down, down, down doesn’t get rid of them. What you choose to feed your divine spark is what it turns into!”
― The Wrath of Silence

“Tallis is a beautiful and terrible thing. Fearsome and alluring. Just like the forest in many ways... but it's written all over that handsome, pale face of yours; you like her.”

“Tallis had persevered through and unshakable feeling of not truly belonging... She understood the responsibility her family constraints put upon her, and while Lana knew Tallis's heart trembled and raged at the perceived indignity of it all, she had grown up into a charming, beautiful woman with shoulders that refused to bow to a world that demanded they should.”
