{Review} Book of Love by Erin Satie
Book of Love is the second book in the Sweetness and Light series by author Erin Satie. I haven’t read the first book yet, but they seem to be about different characters which leads me think that they are both standalone stories maybe set in the same world. Book of Love is a delightful… Read more »
{Review} The Brass Queen by Elizabeth Chatsworth
The Brass Queen is an adult gaslamp/steampunk alternative history by Elizabeth Chatsworth. The Brass Queen was a ton of fun! I loved this adventure, mixed with some mystery and romance so so much.

{Interview+Giveaway} The Woman in the Photo by @AuthorMaryHogan
What’s the story behind THE WOMAN IN THE PHOTO? How did the book come to be? I first had the idea for this book 24 years ago! I’m not kidding.

Swoon Reads has done it again! Love, Lies and Spies is one of my favorite books of 2016.

What I liked most about passenger, was that it was such an interesting book. And I know interesting is a way too overused word in reviews, but it… Read more »
