That this is book one in a series fills me with delight – so many happy reading hours ahead! As I see it, a space opera seems to be part romance, part space adventure. Let’s dive … Continue reading Only Bad Options by Jennifer Estep
RECOMMENDED: Nettle & Bone by T. Kingfisher is $2.99! Carrie gave this one an A-, and I’d definitely agree with that grade:
It is a fairytale that is, mostly, about grown-ups, many of whom have Seen Some Shit. It isn’t always pretty, but it’s always emotionally gripping, new, and wonderful.

This paranormal small Southern town of shifters and witches and rival pack tensions between the Dooleys and Pembrys is immersively fun, sexy, and thoughtful. Bonus points: witches AND vivid, loving female friendships.

Welcome to this week’s Bachelorette recap! My friend Jen is here again. First of all, this somehow still isn’t a finale. There’s an episode next week as well. Pudding: Are you shitting me right now?

Promise of Darkness by Bec McMaster is $2.99! This is a fantasy romance novel and Elyse gave it a B-:
If you like fantasy romance or romance with dark, Gothic elements, there’s a good chance you’ll like Promise of Darkness. Just be aware that you need to wait for the conclusion and that the tone is uneven.
