NetGalley Review: Ghost Business by Jen DeLuca

Hey all, Sam here. Welcome back to the blog. Today I have a book review for you, and for once I'm actually on top of things and getting this review posted BEFORE the book releases. But don't worry, you don't have to wait much longer for this one. The release date is September 9th, 2025,… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Ghost Business by Jen DeLuca

NetGalley Review: Casket Case by Lauren Evans

Hey all, Sam here. As we have reached "Spooky Season," I'm wanting to read more books that fill that vibe, so hopefully in my next couple monthly wrap-ups (and very hopefully in some of the upcoming book reviews) I'll be able to fill it with books of magic and atmosphere plus books of witches, ghosts,… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Casket Case by Lauren Evans

July Wrap-Up

Hey all, Sam here. All right, well today we have another post that I had about 95% of the way drafted before leaving for Gen Con. I couldn't completely finish it until yesterday, just in case I managed to squeeze in a little extra reading or writing time. Tonight David and I are going to… Continue reading July Wrap-Up

NetGalley Review: Automatic Noodle by Annalee Newitz

Hey all, Sam here. Sometimes you just have to rearrange your reading plans because you get approved for a book that sounds really interesting and you really want to read it. That is what had to happen when a copy of today's book landed on my Kindle. Honestly, I tried to hold off on reading… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Automatic Noodle by Annalee Newitz

NetGalley Review: Dungeons & Dragons: The Fallbacks: Dealing with Dragons by Jaleigh Johnson

Hey all, Sam here. With Gen Con starting tomorrow, I'm definitely in a tabletop gaming mood, which in general is true because I'm in two rather awesome gaming groups and we have a couple rather fun D&D campaigns going. But lately I've been even more in a epic heroes quest/fantasy adventure mood because of some… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Dungeons & Dragons: The Fallbacks: Dealing with Dragons by Jaleigh Johnson

NetGalley Review: The Starlight Heir by Amalie Howard

Hey all, Sam here. Today's review is definitely proof that sometimes I am really bad at getting my reviews written and posted in a timely manner. This was...I believe...the second book I completed in 2025 (as in I marked it as finished on January 5th). And yet, here we are, almost at the end of… Continue reading NetGalley Review: The Starlight Heir by Amalie Howard

NetGalley Review: Soulgazer by Maggie Rapier

Hey all, Sam here. Today I'd like to wish a very happy book birthday to Soulgazer by Maggie Rapier. This is the first book in the Wolf and Magpie duology. I was lucky enough to be offered a digital copy through NetGalley, and I gladly accepted because the book sounded interesting. As always, I will… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Soulgazer by Maggie Rapier

June Wrap-Up

Hey all, Sam here. We have made it halfway through the year! Somehow we have survived half of this year. At times it has absolutely been a struggle, but here we are, still trying to keep going.

Manga Review: Betrayed by the Hero, I Formed a MILF Party with His Mom! Vol 1 by Ishino Yassan and Makoto Kuon

Hey all, Sam here. You know what, I haven't done a manga review post in quite some time (probably because it's been a bit since I've read any), so let's have a Manga Monday again. I make no promises about being able to bring this back every Monday, but I should try and get back… Continue reading Manga Review: Betrayed by the Hero, I Formed a MILF Party with His Mom!

NetGalley Review: Pearly Gates by Bonnie Solomon

Hey all, Sam here. I think today is a good day to review a book, especially since I have so many books I still need to review. While I do have a whole bunch of books I've read and would like to talk about, my primary review focus is on my NetGalley reads at the… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Pearly Gates by Bonnie Solomon
