For me, James Lloyd Dulin weaves themes into a story in such a way that you come away from every chapter thinking about something and this is such an incredible strength. No Safe Haven continued to have a theme of colonization and the harsh realities of that from the view of those oppressed, anger and how to manage that emotion, and balance.
About Tyra
Review: Starling House by Alix E. Harrow
I sat down and read through over half of the book in one go, I couldn’t put it down. The prose is beautifully descriptive without being overly flowery. I’d find myself going back and letting certain lines sink in and ruminate before moving on.
Review: Bookshops & Bonedust (Legends & Lattes #0) by Travis Baldree
Bookshops & Bonedust won’t be published until November 2023, and typically I try to hold reviews until it’s closer to the publish date, however as soon as I saw the approval email come in, I had to drop everything and read it.
Review: Dark Water Daughter (The Winter Sea #1) by H.M. Long
Overall, I think this is H.M. Long’s strongest work yet. I’ve been following her on social media for some time, and she has said that she came up with the first idea twenty years ago, and that passion for the story really shines through.
Review: The Book That Wouldn’t Burn (The Library Trilogy #1) by Mark Lawrence
The ending to this book is explosive and it hurts so much, in all the best ways that a book that makes you feel and love the characters does.
Review: The Stone Knife (The Songs of the Drowned #1) by Anna Stephens
Overall I really enjoyed the first installment of The Songs of the Drowned and look forward to continuing on. I’d recommend this for fans of a slower build book with nuanced characters.
Tread of Angels by Rebecca Roanhorse
Overall, if you’re looking for a quick, fun read, I’d recommend Tread of Angels.
The Luminaries (The Luminaries #1) by Susan Dennard
The plot is fast-paced and the prose is so compulsively readable. The world that Dennard has crafted has such an interesting set-up.
No Heart for a Thief (Malitu #1) by James Lloyd Dulin
I’m eagerly awaiting the continuation of Kaylo and Tayen’s story and No Heart for a Thief is highly recommended from me.
Book Tour: A Cup of Tea at the Mouth of Hell by Luke Tarzian
This novella is also a challenging one to review as it deals with grief and I find that while every individual experiences grief and loss throughout their life our experiences are unique. Nevertheless, this novella deserves to land in the hands of more readers and I hope that my recommendation encourages even one person to pick it up.
Book Tour: The Last Ranger (Ranger of the Titan Wilds #1) by J.D.L. Rosell
To begin, I need to quickly mention the absolutely stunning cover and interior artwork that this book had. When I saw this book I immediately knew that this was a Félix Ortiz masterpiece but little did I know that there would be the abundance of interior artwork as well, including in the e-book copy. I am incredibly happy that I have a copy of this book for my shelves.
Book Tour: Starbinder (Eye of Eternity) by Mark Timmony
Synopsis Forged in betrayal. Tempered by the stellar winds. Chosen by the stars. For five hundred years since the Sundering, the order of the Shaluay Starbinders has been dwindling. With their Starwells lying dormant, key artefacts of their order lost and their seers driven mad by the powers that broke the world, only one hope […]
