Cosmic Honor by Jade Waltz

4/5

This was a very unique retelling of Milan and not something I’d normally choose to read on my own. However, I really enjoyed it. I wish that it was a bit longer because I wanted to learn more about the characters (good and bad) as well as see how the humans integrated into the Deaxtru society. Will definitely add this series to my TBR pile

Unblessed by Daphne Moore and Mari LaRoche

4/5

Very cute story too if not a bit light on the development of the different paranormal races. The bones are there but there is definitely room to expand the world further. I’d like to know more about Nia and Xavier in general because lots of things weren’t included.

Beneath the Waves of the Neversea by K.A. Last

4/5

I have never liked Alice in Wonderland and have always thought that Peter Pan was reeeally creepy. I almost skipped this one when I learned that it was a mashup of the two but glad I didn’t. Once it got going, it was a good read and I’m interested in reading the second book.

Book 1 Dark Tides - likely DNF due to inconsistent characters (they know things they shouldn't or don't know things they should with their past experiences, plus it doesn't align with the prequel setup) and conversational tell not show world building which is not my thing. Also references to events in the prequel/spin off story made me feel left out of the loop, like I was missing something big if I hadn't read it.

Shadow and Soul by A.R. Colbert

5/5

Really enjoyed everything about this story. My only criticism is I wish it were a bit longer and included Ryland’s POV so that we could have seen more of the story. Really recommend if you enjoy fantasy in a medieval setting.

A reminder that the USA Today Bestselling Realm of Darkness anthology is a Limited Edition and only available on Kindle Unlimited or on ebook (35 full length novels) for $9.99 for another month. So grab your copy now while you can! A great Christmas gift!

Inheritance by Skye Callahan

3/5

This was an okay start to the series but that’s all it was. It was clearly meant to get you interested enough to read the rest of the series but it was more frustrating than anything else. We never learn the full truth about Tristin or what was actually done to her. Also, the romance at the end felt shoved in at the last minute and forced.

Fight for Darkness by Susan Stradiotto & S. Johnson

4/5

Writing was good and the world created was interesting. I kept having to remind myself that Wickney wasn’t an English city but that was probably a mistake only on my end. Both protagonists were damaged in their own way and I liked that they both found their own ways to heal. That said, I’m happy with this ending so I don’t think I’ll read book 2.
