Finlay Donovan Jumps the Gun - Review
I received a digital copy from Minotaur Books via NetGalley. All reviews are my own. I'm back on the Finlay bandwagon, and I'm absolutely loving this series! It's a rollercoaster of entertainment. We're now diving into Book 3, Finlay Donovan Jumps the Gun by Elle Cosimano, and things are getting even stickier for Finlay and her friends. If you are new to the Finlay Donovan series , I highly recommend starting with Book 1, Finlay Donovan Is Killing It , to immerse yourself in

The Mask of Mirrors - Review
I received the physical and E-Arc copy from Orbit Books. All reviews are my own. Continuing with the goal of clearing my NetGalley shelves and raising that reader percentage, the next book off the backlist is the dual-author M.A. Carrick's The Mask of Mirrors . I have been looking at thickums (630 pages) for some time now, and I won't lie, I was a little intimidated. But once I started the journey, I could not stop. Walk with me as I break down the Rook and Rose series. "Ren

Finlay Donovan Knocks 'Em Dead - Review
I received a digital copy from Minotaur Books via NetGalley. All reviews are my own. The Finlay Donovan series by Elle Cosimano has quickly become one of my favorite binge-reads. I'm already on book #4, but before I dive into the next one, I wanted to share my thoughts on the second book, Finlay Donovan Knocks' Em Dead . If you haven't read Book 1, Finlay Donovan is Killing It, be warned, there may be spoilers ahead. "Finlay Donovan is―once again―struggling to finish her ne

Finlay Donovan is Killing It - Review
I received a digital copy from Minotaur Books via NetGalley. All reviews are my own. I have had enough of my romance sweep and decided to tap into my NetGalley backlog for my next read. A while ago, NetGalley introduced an excellent marketing feature that allowed everyone to read the entire Finlay Donovan series, written by Elle Cosimano, for 24 hours in preparation for the next book in the hexalogy. I didn't know squat about the series, but I've seen the covers plenty of tim

The Lies of the Ajungo - Review
*I received the physical copy for the B2 Weird Bookclub tour via Tordotcom. All reviews are my own.* Something about the title, The Lies of Ajungo by Moses Ose Utomi, made me gravitate towards requesting this book. I got pure In the Shadow of Ruin vibes, and that was such a good book; I wanted to get the same satisfaction with this novella. It's an unfair comparison, but this little package was fire and is worth all the praise I'm about to give it. "They say there is no wat
