Check out latest reviews!

Starting the end of 2017 and into 2018, I am going to start reviewing all the edgy female characters I've been reading about in the hopes of creating my own to add to the list. When I started the journey of writing novels, I thought edgy meant grit and cuss, but I'm realizing that edgy characters can have strength in many ways. I'm exploring this more with each novel that I write, and I hope my readers enjoy the journey with me.

Edgy according to Webster: "having a bold, provocative, or unconventional quality" or "full of tension." Yeah, my novels have some of that.

Being bold doesn't mean beating the crud out of other characters or mutilating the bad guy. It means having courage and daring and strength either internally or externally as their tense situations allow. WOW! I'm learning so much as I read.Red SparrowRed SparrowRed Sparrow

What do you consider an edgy female character? What are some of your favorites? I'd love to add them to my "to-read" list.
