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 […]

Audiobook Review: Storm Front by Jim Butcher

Audiobook Review: Storm Front by Jim Butcher

FIRST IMPRESSION… A fantastic introduction to Harry Dresden’s magical and dangerous world! Can’t wait to read what comes next for this wizard.   THE NARRATOR… James Marsters (aka Spike from Buffy) really brings Harry Dresden’s character to life with his calm and collected narration. He has a smooth voice and makes flawless distinctions with each character in the story. James’ narration can sometimes get a little breathy, but I find that it fits the mood of the scene and wasn’t […]
