Review: Murder of Crows by Anne Bishop

Anne Bishop continues to amaze me…I can’t get enough of this dark and enthralling paranormal world! I honestly think this is the first time I’ve used the “rocked my world” icon on a review and if any review deserves it it’s MURDER OF CROWS! I completely apologize in advance for any ranting and raving I do in this review and acting like a teenage fangirl. The Others series has managed to make me step out of my reading comfort zone […]

Review: Written in Red by Anne Bishop

Anne Bishop delivers a hauntingly beautiful reading experience with WRITTEN IN RED! WRITTEN IN RED is unlike any paranormal world I’ve read…in a good way! Last month I joined a month-long group reading challenge on Goodreads (League of Lusty Ladies) titled “Pick it for Me” where group members are paired up and recommend at least three books for you to read. One of my recommendations was WRITTEN IN RED. It went from my wish list to my TBR list and […]

Early Mini Review: Grimm Consequences by Kate SeRine

Nate made me love him more (didn’t think it was possible) with his POV in GRIMM CONSEQUENCES! GRIMM CONSEQUENCES takes place shortly after the first book in the series, RED and gives us a glimpse into Nate Grimm’s past and his relationship with Tess (Red). We learn more about his character, including his life as a Reaper and the sacrifices he’s made and continues to make out of love for Tess. I usually expect the male POV to be a bit […]
