Weekly Reading Wrap-Up: 24 May 2019

Excuse me, I seem to have lost the entire month of May. Seriously, where did May go? I feel like April lasted forever and now the universe is trying to correct itself by moving at warp speed through May. Just me? Maybe? Okay. I’ve been reading quite a lot lately, but it doesn’t necessarily reflect… Continue reading

Mini Reviews: Ragged Alice, The Tea Master and the Detective, and The Prince and the Dressmaker

Today I’m bringing you three flash reviews for books that are not even remotely related. Why are they in this post together?

Book Review: In an Absent Dream by Seanan McGuire

The Wayward Children series has been such a rollercoaster for me so far.

Book Review: All Systems Red by Martha Wells

Apparently this has been the Summer of the Novella for me — I recently read the three books in the Wayward Children series by Seanan McGuire and The Blue Salt Road by Joanne M. Harris.

Book Review: Beneath the Sugar Sky by Seanan McGuire

The Wayward Children series has been quite a rollercoaster ride for me. I absolutely adored Every Heart a Doorway and despised Down Among the Sticks and Bones. I wasn’t entirely sure how to feel when I picked up Beneath the Sugar Sky, the third book in the series. Would I be delighted? Disappointed? Underwhelmed? The… Continue reading
