Review: Curse the Day

What do you get when you mix a lawyer who is a little scattered with a suicidal angel? A little mayhem, a lot of nonsense, and maybe a bit of murder. That’s the story of this book, Curse the Day by Annabel Chase, and it works, for the most part….

Review: Talking to Dragons

Talking to Dragons was the first book Patricia C. Wrede wrote in the Enchanted Forest Chronicles, and it was never meant to be the capstone of a four-book series. Luckily for us, someone convinced her to go back and fill in the missing pieces, and we got the rest of…

Review: Just Stay Away

It’s always funny to me when authors write books about authors. Tell me you’ve never had a real job without telling me you’ve never had a real job. Oops, my mistake Mr. Wirt used to work for Dairy Queen and can still do the signature swirl at the top of…

Review: Searching for Dragons

This is the second in the Enchanted Forest Chronicles by Patricia C. Wrede and I thought she made the right call when she chose a new viewpoint for this one. I loved Cimorene, but it was fun to see her from the outside, too. In Searching for Dragons, someone (obviously…

Review: Dealing with Dragons

I don’t remember much about the Enchanted Forest Chronicles from when I read them as they were published in the 90s, but I know I loved them and thought they were both revolutionary and hilarious. Let’s talk about how they hold up. The first in the series, chronologically, is Dealing…

Review: Three for a Wedding

For many years, I thought Betty Neels based her beloved Dutch doctor characters on her own husband. Am I the only one a little scandalized to discover that her husband was Dutch, but a sailor not a rich medical professional, and those dishy Dutch doctors were her coworkers. Betty, I’m…

Review: Keeper of Enchanted Rooms

A while back, I wrote a break-up letter with this author and told her we were done. I meant it, too. I had given her so many chances with the Paper Magician and all that series, and they were competent enough, just lacking in the emotional depth and connection I…

Review: Could Have Been Romantic

What do you do when the one you’re in love with is incapable of loving you back. Not because you’re unlovable or they’re unloving, but because they’re just not wired that way? That’s the challenge Drew faces as he fills notebooks with all of the reasons he loves his favorite…

Review: The Secret Lake

Do you ever get so stressed that all you want is a little kid lit? No, just me? I asked for book recs for quick and fun reads for children and this one came out on top. It’s a quick and thoughtful book about time travel and friendship. It reminded…

Review: Could Have Been Us

I just found out today that Camilla Evergreen is just the side gig for Anne Stryker. Heck of a side gig, because these little romance books she’s putting out on the side are worlds better than most romances I’ve read, and I’ve read a lot. A lot. Just in the…
