C. J. Daley’s (CJDsCurrentRead) Top Reads of 2023
Another year gone, another chunk of my TBR entirely ignored while a read an entire set of books that were new to me (for the most part). From finishing the inaugural Indie Ink Awards at the start of the year, to my first year with BBNYA and SFINCS, I’ve pretty much counted anything I wrote […]

Jenn’s Top Reads of 2023
Another year done, many more pages read and no, the TBR is of course not any smaller. This year I read over 100 books for the first time, and while number based reading goals don’t mean a whole lot to me, reading that many in one year was something I never expected to accomplish. Here […]

Josh Hanson’s Best Horror of 2023
2023 strikes me as a year in which here were a shocking number of great debuts, but as I look back, the trend seems to be a year in which established writers in the horror scene have all of a sudden thrown down their very best work, many of them publishing books that I have […]
Neilthebookguy’s Top 5 Reads of 2023
2023 has been a year full of exciting reads for me. In fact, I have read more self published books than I have ever read in one year. On top of that, they even make up the majority of the 65 books I’ve read this year! All that to say, I’ve read a lot of […]
Review: Time’s Ellipse by Frasier Armitage
I’m going to start off by saying you really need to read Time’s Ellipse to experience what Frasier has created here. Where this book begins and where it ends both feels completely different but yet it also comes in a full circle. Trust me, that statement will make sense once you read the book.

This year I’ve had some real reading highs, from having my own Bookstagram and reviewing on there, to joining the wonderful team at FanFiAddict.
