REVIEW: Dark Paradise by Angie Sandro

JiaC Reviewsghosts / Gothic / Hachette / louisiana / murder / New Adult / Witches1 Comments

Dear Ms. Sandro, When I first heard about your debut, my interest was piqued. A non-contemporary romance NA? Featuring non-white characters? Give it to me! Interests in diversity aside, I’m curious to see if NA can expand beyond contemporary romance successfully. Dark Paradise seemed promising. Set in the Louisiana bayou, ... more >

REVIEW: A Witch’s Handbook of Kisses and Curses by Molly Harper

AmyC+ Reviewsparanormal romance / Witches6 Comments

REVIEW: Moonset by Scott Tracey

JiaC+ ReviewsFlux / New-York / Witches / Young-Adult1 Comments

Dear Mr. Tracey, I have a soft spot for witches. It stems from my traditional fantasy reader background. After all, a witch is often the urban fantasy equivalent of a mage. Though I’d heard lots of buzz about your debut, Witch Eyes, I haven’t had the chance to pick it ... more >

REVIEW: The Lost Soul by Gabriella Pierce

JiaC+ ReviewsHarperCollins / New York City / Paranormal / Witches1 Comments

Dear Gabriella Pierce: I will never fully understand how anyone could claim the short-lived ABC TV series, 666 Park Avenue, was based on this series. They have completely different premises. The TV show was about an apartment building that granted your desires — but for a price. The book series ... more >

REVIEW: Thirteen by Kelley Armstrong

JiaB Reviewsangels / demons / female friendship / friends-to-lovers / mothers and daughters / Penguin / Urban-Fantasy / Witches8 Comments

Dear Ms. Armstrong, All things must come to an end. That includes your Women of the Otherworld series. I can’t believe it’s been over ten years since we were first introduced to Elena, the only female werewolf in existence. And while I’ve liked some books more than others, I still ... more >
