Review: The Book That Wouldn’t Burn (The Library Trilogy #1) by Mark Lawrence

April 30, 2023 by Eleni A.E. Leave a Comment

Lawrence does a truly incredible job with controlling the flow of information and details the reader is privy to, masterfully winding and weaving his plot and its various timelines, in such a manner that although the twists and reveals impact you fully, they do so in a way that makes perfect sense.

Review: Body Language (Cassie Raven #1) by A. K. Turner

April 7, 2023 by Eleni A.E. Leave a Comment

For fans of British thrillers/crime procedurals, this intriguing first novel in the Cassie Raven series shows the reader a bit more of the other side of criminal investigation teams by focusing on the mortuary techs. Specifically, bi badass Cassie Raven who shows everyone you should never stop at appearances, and she does it with style and a sharp wit

Three Mini Reviews in One

March 18, 2023 by Eleni A.E. Leave a Comment

Hello again dear reader or listener, I hope you are well!
Seen as I haven’t brought any reviews for your reading pleasure in a while, but I’ve also struggled to sit and write my usual long form ramblings because of reasons, I thought I’d try something a little different and present three mini reviews in one.
A Fantasy, a Gothic Romance, and a Romcom.

As she ascends the perilous mountain slopes once again to the Glacian kingdom in a desperate attempt to save those remaining on the Ledge, she discovers a new evil awaiting her. With a contingent of hundreds, she must lead her people way, but she has no way of knowing what will lie ahead, or what might follow behind…

Review: The Immortality Thief (The Kystrom Chronicles #1) by Taran Hunt

October 10, 2022 by Eleni A.E. Leave a Comment

What we have here is an action adventure with high stakes that manage to become higher and higher as the story goes on. But more than anything this is one of those times that I can say it was character driven plot at its finest. I couldn’t put this book down!
Hunt weaves comedy, action, and horror/thriller elements to create a fast paced romp through an abandoned spaceship floating nearby a sun that is days away from going supernova. Talk about hitting the ground running. The very beginning is also your typical gathering a team for a heist with a bit of a Suicide Squad spin.

Review: The Dark Between the Trees by Fiona Barnett

October 10, 2022 by Eleni A.E. Leave a Comment

Hello again dear reader, it is October and spooky season is on 🎃. So how about a review for a surrealist gothic folk-thriller?? That sounds like a bit of a mouthful but broken down in other terms this is the kind of book that is 80% just supernatural vibes surrounding a very simple plot that will have you coming out of it more than a little confused but satisfied nonetheless.

Review: Station Eternity (The Midsolar Murders #1) by Mur Lafferty

October 3, 2022 by Eleni A.E. 1 Comment

Mur Lafferty’s latest novel is marketed as Agatha Christie meets Doctor Who so, as any good Whovian, I didn’t walk towards it, I ran. And I’m very pleased to say it most definitely paid off!

Review: The Ballad of Never After (Once Upon A Broken Heart #2) by Stephanie Garber

September 12, 2022 by Eleni A.E. Leave a Comment

Garber’s prose is easy to read as much as it is lyrical and evocative, and her metaphors, even when a little over the top, still render her imagery amazingly, after all, their flair does fit in with the overall vibe of this story.

Review: Ledge (The Glacian Trilogy #1) by Stacey McEwan

July 20, 2022 by Eleni A.E. Leave a Comment

Stacey McEwan joins the ranks among the new gen of authors who are modern and inclusive in all the right ways without being on the nose nor performative for the sake of it

Review: Our Crooked Hearts by Melissa Albert

July 1, 2022 by Eleni A.E. Leave a Comment

Our Crooked Hearts is a double tale of mother and daughter coming into magic and its consequences, when they were each 16-17 years old. The mother’s half of the story is told in flashbacks so as to create parallelisms with her daughter’s present storyline, cleverly woven in such a way that what happened in the past is slowly revealed to optimally fit and complement what is happening in the present.

Review: For The Throne (Wilderwood #2) by Hannah Whitten

June 22, 2022 by Eleni A.E. Leave a Comment

For The Throne really is everything you wish for in a sequel/series conclusion, in that it wraps up all the threads in a satisfying manner that isn’t necessarily what you’d expect, it honors already established characters while also giving the right amount of space to the ones who are now the main focus and, it does all that by improving on all that worked well before to make it even better.
