Mini Reviews: The Steel Prince, Burn Bright

July 11, 2019July 9, 2019by Mari2 Comments on Mini Reviews: The Steel Prince, Burn Bright

Yeah, my June readings amounted to...four books. Oops?! That being said, I spent quite a bit of the last half of the month traveling, so that might explain much. Also, audiobook reading slowed because I didn't often have access to Libby. But in any case! Before I did go on my Moroccan trip, I polished [...]

Mini Reviews: The Step-Spinsters, Ghost Slayer

Now normally I'd have posted a Food and Fandom post by now, since I've been so busy making random dishes from the books I've read. Buuuut, let's get some of these books out of the way before I spam my blog with goodies. There's a heftier review of The Step-Spinsters in the form of a blog [...]

Mini Reviews: Injustice Year One, Skinwalker

I'm in the middle of reading two heftier books at the moment, one a NetGalley ARC (or it was...um...), and the other the massive conclusion to Daughter of Smoke and Bone. I'll definitely review both soon. I realize that I had actually written a review for a portion of [...]

Prancing in Prague || Silence Fallen Review

Initial Thoughts:  I mean...I reread Mercy Thompson stories so often, particularly little snippets, but holy hell, this one was definitely something I would reread again DIRECTLY AFTER I just finished it. So. Damn. Good. And omg. SO MUCH ADAM AND MERCY POV. Sigh. When can I expect the next book? SILENCE FALLEN by Patricia Briggs [...]

Mari

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!)

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?!
