L. Ryan Storms is an award-winning Young Adult Fantasy author who loves to read and write strong female protagonists with a "Fine. I'll do it myself!” mindset.

Storms lives in Pennsylvania with her cancer-survivor husband, two children, and a “rescue zoo” of ever-changing furry and feathered friends.

“Do Something”

When I was in college (a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far…wait, never mind; it was just a long time ago), I was a recipient of a scholarship that allowed me to continue my towards getting my degree. Without it, I’m not sure I would have been able to afford college. I came from a blue-collar family with a single working parent and two siblings. My mother went to work again when I was in middle s

I’ve only ever read one other Sanderson novel and that one spent too much time world building for my taste. His writing is excellent, but I like a faster pace and Tress provided that. Delightfully done! Highly recommend.

N.K. Jemisin is a MASTER at epic fantasy. To weave so many timelines and characters together in what feels like an effortless tale (which I am SURE took an insane amount of effort and talent) is amazing. This book is one of the very few that pulls of ...more

T. Kingfisher and I would get along well, I think. I, too, hate mirrors at night. And I, too, talk to my chickens. And my cats. Loved everything about this one.

Heather Fawcett is a new favorite and an auto-read for me. I adore her brand of cozy fantasy and so look forward to whatever she writes next. Flawed heroes, neurotic heroines, and always some feline or canine companion to love. Be still my heart.

I really wanted to love this. Instead I liked it. Sexual abuse, narcissism, racism, and anxiety & depression are heavily featured. And if you only read the back of the book before diving in, you have no clue that’s what you’re in for.

I decided to try something new - a new author, a genre, a new title. And I’m glad I took the chance. Beautiful storytelling through and through.
