I’d meant to announce a Magic Gives Contest to celebrate my new wild and unbridled passion for Andrews’s Magic series (wouldn’t it be great to do a clinch cover of Kate and Curran? Just for kicks and giggles? Yes? NO? Hmm, just a thought…) at the same time as my review. Oopsie numero 1: I [...]

So, I’m reading Magic Bites by Ilona Andrews ATM ( Ilona, Ilona…beautiful name) and I just hate this block with a passion, but so far, three chapters in, it’s not grabbing me. I had hoped to be done with it by now, to be gripped so tightly by its unique urban fantasy world and reviewed [...]

See that book I said I was devouring down yonder? The one by Margo Maguire? (No, down to the right. Way down. Further, under Currently Devouring. See it? No? Go down a lot further…) Yeah…not going so well for me ATM.
Know right here and now–this does not mean I dislike this author’s work now, nor [...]

Way back when (as in, The Wonder Years), in a time far, far away (as in, the bedroom I still remember that was my teenage mecca) where I only had to go to school and help out mom once in a while (Ah, the good life-yes? No? Maybe?), I used to read fantastical tomes of [...]
