I'm not usually a fan of fiction that features virtual worlds in any form. I really love the idea of Virtual Reality in real life, but on paper it tends to lose my interest. I like my fiction and VR separate, I guess. Nirvana did a great job in separating itself from the current speculative fiction genre. The VR aspects are super important to the story which readers learn later on, but it isn't the VR mysteries that kept my interest. The world struggles to go on after a mysterious illness kills all the bees which caused ecological devastation. No one knows why the ... Continue Reading...
Review: Shattered Blue
I'm not usually one for novels about Fae because faeries have never really interested me. I took a risk reading Shattered Blue and I was pleasantly surprised! Horowitz is an extremely lyrical writer with a gift for beautiful poetry. Noa's poems are actually my favourite part of this book because they are so well written. Horowitz's poems actually reminded of the poems I was taught to memorize in grade school: simple, colorful and concise with deep meaning through imagery. Nomad girls are Lost Ones too, with leaves at foot and crown; they too seek shelter in the ... Continue Reading...

Tour/Review: The Sweet Spot
Warning: Spanking fetish and light BDSM elements Review I went in expecting a cute story about a ball player who meets a hard working girl, falls in love, works through the struggles of fame and lives happily ever after. I was wrong. Looking back on the synopsis I can tell there's a few hints to the nature of Chase's "pre-game rituals", but I honestly didn't clue into what the real plot of this book was about until it just, well, happened.. I definitely am not the intended audience, so keeping that in mind.. Chase Walker, base ball-er extraordinaire, ... Continue Reading...
Review: Cowgrrl Up: Live
When I was a child I was fortunate enough to be part of a family of farmers. I was one of the lucky little girls who asked for a horse and got one. I got to experience, for a short while, what having a horse was like and that fostered a love for all things equestrian. I remember that I was old enough to remember my first ride, but not old enough to really learn anything concrete about horse ownership and as a result, horses will forever be magical in my mind. Cowgrrl Up: Live was surprisingly adept at capturing snippets of memories from my childhood: smells, sights ... Continue Reading...
