Bridgertons #1 While quarantining in Miami before seeing my niece and nephew last week, my mother in law suggested we watch Bridgerton on Netflix together. Now I had heard about some scenes that would make most uncomfortable at the prospect of watching with an in law, but mine is pretty darn cool. But I insisted… Continue reading The Duke and I by Julia Quinn

The Enigma Game by Elizabeth Wein
Verity #4 Code Name Verity will forever and always be one of my all time favorite books. Whenever Elizabeth Wein has released a new book in the series (none of which follows the other directly but all are related) I immediately want to read it. And while none has thus far captured the unique magic… Continue reading The Enigma Game by Elizabeth Wein
Sara by Garth Ennis & Steve Epting
Recently I went to my local comic shop (New Wave Comics in Skippack, PA) to pick up an absurd number of comics they'd been holding for me. Of course, as usual, I had a poke around the trade paperbacks that they have in as they often differ from the ones we carry at the store,… Continue reading Sara by Garth Ennis & Steve Epting
Heroes by Stephen Fry
The Greek Myths Reimagined #2 I hadn't realized it was almost exactly a year ago I reviewed Mythos, as I had also listened to it as an advanced listening copy on Libro.fm! It's a great follow-up, this time following the Greek human and demi-god heroes versus the gods themselves. Synopsis From the publisher marketing:In this… Continue reading Heroes by Stephen Fry
Ink & Sigil by Kevin Hearne
Ink & Sigil #1, Iron Druid Chronicles Spin Off I love fantasy, but I discovered I don't read a lot of fantasy by cis white dudes. Because most of fantasy is written by them, I often go looking for stories by women, POC, or LGBTQIA+ authors. But occasionally, a description will nab me, or a… Continue reading Ink & Sigil by Kevin Hearne

Below are just a few of our favorites - click the images for the reviews and the titles to add them to your… Continue reading Royalist Reverie
Fangs by Sarah Andersen
I love Sarah's Scribbles dearly (and am kicking myself for not having reviewed those books on here yet and will do so next week) and so when I found out Sarah Andersen was doing a new project, I knew I would have to read it! Synopsis From the publisher marketing:Elsie the vampire is three hundred… Continue reading Fangs by Sarah Andersen
Bringing Down the Duke by Evie Dunmore
The League of Extraordinary Women #1 I know they say to never judge a book by its cover, but I was pretty much sold on this one when my sister showed it to me while I visited her at the Towne Book Center in Collegeville, PA. I had not really delved into the world of… Continue reading Bringing Down the Duke by Evie Dunmore
American Royals by Katharine McGee
American Royals #1 Like my wonderful sister I am always going to pick up a book that is related to royalty, whether real or fictional. When the pandemic lockdown started earlier this year, I started buying lots of books to make sure I would have enough. Although I firmly believe I could never have enough… Continue reading American Royals by Katharine McGee
Where Dreams Descend by Janella Angeles
Kingdom of Cards #1 This is one review I've been meaning to post for a LONG time - I met Janella in January and asked for three advance copies of her book so that I could buddy read it with two colleagues, who both finished it long before I did and absolutely loved it! Synopsis… Continue reading Where Dreams Descend by Janella Angeles
