Hey all, Sam here. Oops...I had yesterday's post mostly prepped but forgot to finish it and schedule it, and I got a little busy at work, so I wasn't able to get it posted...which broke my 10 day blog streak. But, since I had the post mostly completed anyway, I'll just do a double post… Continue reading Book Review: Lady of Darkness by Melissa K. Roehrich

Hey all, Sam here. In the past year or so, cozy fantasy has really been making a splash in the book world, and I've even seen some manga and anime getting in on the cozy fantasy subgenre....and honestly, I'm loving it. I've seen cozy fantasy ranging from low-spice, low-stakes, just cozy cuteness...to cozy vibes with… Continue reading Book Review: A Fellowship of Bakers & Magic by J. Penner
