Review: Magic Claims by Ilona Andrews

Posted on May 30, 2023 by Liz (AKA Cat)

I think I’m in love. Again. Every time I dive back into this world, I’m quickly reminded why the Kate Daniels series was (and will always be) one of my favorite urban fantasy series. It’s so powerfully written, with rich and intense characters. Throw in dangerous enemies and an expansive world; there’s plenty to love. Continue reading →

Review: Sil in a Dark World by Brindi Quinn

Posted on March 2, 2023 by Liz (AKA Cat)

I’ve been a fan of Brindi Quinn for years, yet I haven’t read a fair amount of her backlog. So one of my goals this year is to read through them! Starting with Sil in a Dark World. Obviously, I knew I would enjoy this read, and I was not disappointed! Continue reading →

Review: Magic Tides by Ilona Andrews

Posted on January 17, 2023 by Liz (AKA Cat)

Holy cats. Magic Tides is the Kate Daniels novella I never knew I needed. Having read it, I honestly don’t know how I survived all the years without it. Reading this made me realize how much I miss this world. Clearly (another) read-through of the series is in order. Continue reading →

Review: The Golden Enclaves by Naomi Novik

Posted on December 26, 2022 by Liz (AKA Cat)

Wow. I can’t believe the end (of the series) is already here. It’s time to say goodbye to The Scholomance. The Golden Enclaves is the third and final novel in Naomi Novik’s series, and I have been dying to see where things go after that wicked cliffhanger from The Last Graduate. Continue reading →

Review: The Book Eaters by Sunyi Dean

Posted on December 6, 2022 by Liz (AKA Cat)

Almost every reader has used the phrase “I devoured this book.” For most, this term means that we loved the book so much that we read it in one (or two) sittings. But The Book Eaters is about to put a whole new spin on that notion. Continue reading →

Review: All of Our Demise by Amanda Foody and Christine Lynn Herman

Posted on November 29, 2022 by Liz (AKA Cat)

Ohh! It’s here! Time to finally see how the All of Us Villains series comes to an end. I know it’s only been a year – but it feels like I’ve been waiting for ages to see how this all wraps up. Written by the duo Amanda Foody and Christine Lynn Herman, All of Our Demise portrays a dark tournament of magic, sacrifice, and the highest costs. Continue reading →

Review: Ruby Fever by Ilona Andrews

Posted on November 28, 2022 by Liz (AKA Cat)

Pardon me as I squeal. I can’t believe it’s time for the sixth novel in the Hidden Legacy series! For those new to the world, Ruby Fever is the sixth novel of the series but the third novel following Catalina Baylor. Continue reading →

Review: Seasonal Fears by Seanan McGuire

Posted on October 28, 2022 by Liz (AKA Cat)

Seasonal Fears is the second novel in Seanan McGuire’s Alchemical Journeys series, and once again, I find myself transported to a world full of dangers and delights. If you haven’t checked out this series yet, I highly recommend you do so right away. McGuire has such a way with words. Seriously, I didn’t think it was possible to surpass Middlegame’s brilliance, and yet here we are. Continue reading →

Review: Wayward Souls by Devon Monk

Posted on April 14, 2022 by Liz (AKA Cat)

Wayward Souls is the first novel in a new series (Souls of the Road) by Devon Monk – one of my favorite urban fantasy authors. The second I saw this book, it immediately got added to my TBR pile, though I’m ashamed to admit that it took me this long to get around to reading it. Continue reading →

Fans of Kelly Armstrong rejoice! Cursed Luck is the first novel in a series by the same name, and yes, I am very late to joining this party. The second novel will be out soon (and likely will be out by the time I post this review), and I cannot wait! Continue reading →
