25 Reads: Bitterblue by Kristin Cashore

25 Reads: Bitterblue by Kristin Cashore

I feel like I've been in a book frenzy lately, but I suppose it's mostly because by next week, my reading might possibly slow down and my 25 reads project isn't even remotely finished (though, apparently I've already finished my Goodreads goal of 50 books this year, so there's that!). Note: This book is a [...]

25 Reads: Mistborn Trilogy by Brandon Sanderson

25 Reads: Mistborn Trilogy by Brandon Sanderson

I feel like Brandon Sanderson books should have a separate rating system entirely, because I just five-starred the Mistborn trilogy on Goodreads, and yet I don't love them as equally as all that. For weird ordery purposes, I'd have to say Mistborn: The Final Empire would still remain my favorite of the three books, but [...]

25 Reads: The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum

I undertook this reading project in the hopes of getting through my overly-long Goodreads reading list, so naturally I brought myself to finally reading The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. At this point, most people are familiar with the story of the Kansas girl who gets swept up in a violent storm to be dropped into a [...]

25 Reads: The Shambling Guide to New York City by Mur Lafferty

I have seen Orbit Books marketing this book since before it got published last year, but I never got around to reading it until now. Thankfully, I've put it on my 25 reads list, so I was eventually going to get through it this year if nothing else! The Shambling Guide to New York City [...]

25 Reads: The Silvered by Tanya Huff

25 Reads: The Silvered by Tanya Huff

Disclaimer: My love for this book has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that almost every scene features a chiseled, butt-naked werewolf. Nothing at all. Nope. Okay, maybe a little of it has to do with naked werewolves. But I should start at the beginning. The Empire has declared war on the small, were-ruled kingdom [...]

Mari-with-an-I prefers her fantasies drenched in oil and fried up in faerie, but when that’s not the case, she’ll read it anyway. She likes writing what she reads, and likes baking while she writes. She’s written a few things for anthologies, including an anthology that got translated into Czech (I know, right?! Eeeeee!), and if you haven’t read them yet, she urges you to do so! Who knows, there might be a few cookies waiting for you at the end of the read.

…Or not. (Blast her pet steampoctopus for eating them all!)

Reading Ratings (in Cookies)

5 cookies = Book was so deliciously awesome that I couldn't put it down or get it out of my mind for a while.

4 cookies = Book was great and certainly worth the read.

3 cookies = Book was good but I expected better.

2 cookies = Meh.

1 cookie = Why did I even bother?!
