Hello everyone! Today I’m overjoyed to host The Write Reads on my blog once again to introduce you all to the Merchants of Bone and Light by Erika Mckorkle. I am sadly in a bit of a reading slump at the moment which is making my hyper picky and I’m barely reading, but I have read a little and want to share a few thoughts with you. So the first thing I feel is really important to note about this…

Oh hello there! It has been a while. I’ve not had the spoons to write much at all these past few months and so to preserve what little energy I have, I let myself leave the blog ticking along. However, I’m having a bit of a reading renaissance this year, it seems, and I’m just so excited about so many books I thought it would be nice to share some of that excitement.

A book cover reveal, if you will. The series is…

MacRae and enter into Escapist’s giveaway to win an ebook copy for yourself at…

I’m going to give you my first impressions of the book in this post!

Hello, hello! Today is my stop on the Escapist Tours book tour for A Drowned Kingdom by P.L. Stuart. This is the first in a new epic fantasy series about an exiled people whose ancestral home is buried beneath the waves, and now long to rule once more. It is based on Plato’s lost city of Atlantis, which is a story that has always fascinated me! Sounds awesome, right?! A Drowned Kingdom by P.L. Stuart Series: The Drowned Kingdom Saga…
