The Book of Gothel is beautifully woven, and full of depth and compassion. It’s adventurous, and manages to be classic and modern all at once, giving life to Mother Gothel.

A darkly magnificent retelling of The Juniper Tree.
Review: For the Throne (The Wilderwood #2) by Hannah Whitten
The thrilling and gorgeous sequel to For the Wolf.
Review: For The Throne (Wilderwood #2) by Hannah Whitten
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.

That Good Mischief is author Lyra Wolf’s latest release and book 3 in The Nine World’s Rising series. I previously read and reviewed the first 2 books in the series and found them to be a joy to read. If you are into stories about Loki, Odin, and Norse mythology, these books are must reads.

An imaginative fantasy romance retelling of Tinkerbell and Captain Hook!
Book Tour and Review: Second Star to the Left (Reimagined Fairy Tales #1) by Megan Van Dyke
Truly, I cannot boast about this book enough. Rating this book was an easy task, as it captured my attention and my heart in the first chapter. Everyone loves a good Happily Ever After, and this one does not fail to deliver on every point. Plus, for those of you who just love a good dose of spice *wink wink,* this book has it in abundance. You will blush, cheer, and fall in love right along with the characters. If you need reminding that love can exist even in the most trying circumstances, this is a book for you.
Book Tour & Review: Second Star to the Left (Reimagined Fairy Tales #1) by Megan Van Dyke
Overall, I really loved Second Star to the Left and I cannot wait for the next book in the Reimagined Fairy Tales series! The subtle ways in which the author changed the core characters to meet the narrative were the perfect choices to tell the story she wanted to tell. A beautifully written love story is at the core of this novel, but surrounding it is grand adventure, found family, and pirate ship battles. Can you think of a greater pairing?
