NetGalley Review: Poisoned Empire by Elyse Thomson

Hey all, Sam here. I didn't want to take the spotlight away from our posts about the Downtown Summer Market on our Facebook page, so I decided to post today's review a little later than normal. Speaking of, if you aren't already, find us on Facebook at Free State of Geek. It has cross posts… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Poisoned Empire by Elyse Thomson

NetGalley Review: Dark Water Daughter by H.M. Long

Hey all, Sam here. I both love and hate my days off work...love them because they're days when I can relax and do whatever, but hate them because sometimes I want to be doing things and instead I end up taking a nap...which is why this review wasn't up an hour or so ago. Even… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Dark Water Daughter by H.M. Long

June Wrap Up

Hey all, Sam here. I read 19 books in the month of June! That obviously doesn't include the two or three books I'm in the middle of reading and will finish in the next couple of days, because those are technically considered July reads because that's when I'm going to finish them. But, this certainly… Continue reading June Wrap Up

July TBR

Hey all, Sam here. Okay, the June TBR actually went pretty well. At least in terms of me having a reading plan for the month...and I mostly stuck to it, even though there were a couple minor adjustments and rearrangements, so... let's try again for July. Starting with...the NetGalley reads I'm hoping to read and… Continue reading July TBR

WIP Wednesday – June 28

Hey all, Sam and David here today. There has been so much going on over here at Free State of Geek, both individually and together. We normally get up to quite a bit of stuff, but it seems that since we are on opposing work schedules, we get even more done when the other person… Continue reading WIP Wednesday – June 28

Mid Year Book Freakout Tag (2023 Edition)

Hey all, Sam here. So...I did this tag in 2017, 2018, and 2019...and then for some reason just skipped it the past couple years. But you know, what, let's bring it back. The rules are super simple...answer the prompts. Well, I guess technically you need to think about the fact that all of the prompts… Continue reading Mid Year Book Freakout Tag (2023 Edition)

NetGalley Review: The Warden by Daniel M. Ford

Hey all, Sam here. The reading and reviews just keep happening, and it honestly feels so very nice. I can feel my reading drive returning. It feels like the return of a long-lost friend, and I've missed wanting to read this much. I am loving it, and I think I've read like 15 or so… Continue reading NetGalley Review: The Warden by Daniel M. Ford

NetGalley Review: Court of the Undying Seasons by A.M. Strickland

Hey all, Sam here. You know...almost every time I log into NetGalley so I can update my reviews to improve my ratio, I find that I've been approved for another book or two...or three. Today I logged on and found one new book and it is a September release. But it does make it difficult… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Court of the Undying Seasons by A.M. Strickland
