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

PaWriCo Bookish Bootcamp July 11-17 Check-In

Hey all, Sam here. Four weeks down, two weeks to go. I think this is the longest I've been able to stick with a writing challenge in quite a while, even if I feel like I could be doing a bit better.

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.
