Rating: 4🌈 The Outcast Pack series takes place in the same universe as this author’s Familiar Mates and Mythos series. So if a reader is familiar with those books then they will be able to supply the missing foundation information one would normally expect to receive from a first story here. Paranormal/human interaction. Officially none.… Continue reading Review: Wolf Heart (Outcast Pack, #1) by T. J. Nichols

Review: Spring Strings by Lily Morton
Rating: 4🌈 Another wonderful contemporary romance from Lily Morton, Spring Strings is situated in the same model universe that has such wonderful characters as the incredibly beautiful always stoned Dean, Jude, and the effervescent Pip. It’s a novella so unlike some of Morton’s longer fabulously memorable stories, Spring Strings misses in some of the depth… Continue reading Review: Spring Strings by Lily Morton

Review: Steamroller by Mary Calmes
Rating: 3.25 🌈 Totally sweet college romance. This is one short story that I wish had been expanded a bit in places to give us a firmer foundation of both characters, their history on the campus, and at the end. Especially with them facing the huge upheavals in their lives. Vincent is the most fully… Continue reading Review: Steamroller by Mary Calmes
Review: Resilient Heart by Annabeth Albert
Rating: 3:25 🌈 Resilient Heart is an expanded short story that appeared in an earlier released collection of stories. Here the author has added an additional 10k words to give her characters a closure to their romance. I didn’t read the first version and love this author so I thought this was a new release… Continue reading Review: Resilient Heart by Annabeth Albert
Review: Gravemound by Kim Fielding
Rating: 5🌈 The blurb doesn’t begin to tell a reader exactly how unusual and amazing a story Gravemound is. Much like Grimm’s tales but containing far more hope and light at the end then Grimm ever included, this novella takes on such large themes as grief, abandonment, deep loss, alienation, and fear. And through a… Continue reading Review: Gravemound by Kim Fielding

Barb, A Zany Old Lady Review of Take Heart by Willa Okati
Rating; 2.5 stars out of 5 Dr Brendan West arrives at St. Hawk’s Medical Center for two reasons: first, because he’s onboard as a temp in the ER to cover for another doctor on leave, and second, because he’s heard great things about this area— stories that made him feel that there’s a charm to… Continue reading Barb, A Zany Old Lady Review of Take Heart by Willa Okati
