Dragonfly In Amber (Outlander #2)
Greetings to all the bibliophiles out there! I believe it’s been a bit since I’ve last updated. What can I say? Working two jobs, a holiday (happy belated July 4th to my American friends), getting ready to leave the country for a bit, reading my precious books, and squeezing in some much needed sleep here…

The Girl In 6E (Deanna Madden #1)

Volition
Hello all! I know I just posted a review not too long ago, but for once, I was able to binge read two books in the same week. With life happening the way it has been lately, I haven’t been able to read as fast or as much as I normally would, so this was…

Fifty Shades
Hello fellow bibliophiles! Right now, I’m in the middle of a Thomas Hardy novel, so while I wrap that up, I’m going into my archives to discuss something previously read. You guessed it, I have another trilogy for you all. I suppose since I’m reading some Hardy, and the movie just came out on DVD…

The Prince and The Raven (The Florentine #0.5 & #1)
Good afternoon! Today, I’m going to discuss Sylvain Reynard’s newest Florentine series. Last week, I posted my review of all three novels in the Gabriel trilogy. They’re important because the latest tales re-visit some of our favorite characters, but also take a turn for something a bit more sinister. Before tackling these, make sure you…
