In search of something to read that would rival Song of Achilles, I went with the internet’s recommendation of Rina Kent’s novel, God of Fury. Apparently it’s one of many in her “God’s of” series, but this featured a more stand alone couple that would not require any previous interactions with the series.

Book Review: Killer Potential by Hannah Deitch
Picking books this year has been a struggle for me. In an effort to mix it up a little bit here at the end of the year, I looked back at some titles I wrote down the last time I was walknig through Barnes and Noble, and Killer Potential by Hannah Deitch, managed to stick out.

The fact that I didn’t finish the sixth volume of Case File Compendium before I left for a two week vacation almost feels like a crime. But that doesn’t take away from just how freaking good the latest installment of Rou Bao Bu Chi Ru’s novel was.

As I write this review for the second volume of Priest’s series, Guardian, I realize how long it’s actually been since I finished it. Which is a shame, because I would really like to start the third and final novel soon. Anyway, let’s see what I can remember of this book!

At my local and brand new Barnes & Noble, I was walking around checking out covers and titles, when Eric LaRocca’s newest novel caught my eye. With a name like At Dark, I Become Loathsome, and a distorted devil-like creature gracing the cover, how could I not be intrigued?
Read moreBook Review: The Swell by Allie Reynolds
I remember back when Allie Reynolds’ The Swell was first released. It made its way into People magazine, which I think is a pretty big deal, and the premise sounded intriguing, but for whatever reason it made it onto my reading list, but I never got around to actually reading it until I saw it in the bargain section at my local book store.
