New Release Review: The Killing Moon (Dreamblood #1) by N.K. Jemisin

The Killing Moon (Dreamblood #1) by N.K. Jemisin *Early Review Copy provided by Orbit Publishing through Netgalley* Regina’s Rating and Review: 5 Skulls, Grade A The Killing Moon is the first in a new epic fantasy series by the author of the The Inheritance Trilogy, N. K. Jemisin.  Jemisin has said that The Killing Moon is her “homage to epic fantasy — as opposed to the Inheritance Trilogy, which was more my eyeroll at epic fantasy”.  This book hit me hard and stole me away from reality, completely.  I was not expecting it.  I had read great things about the [ Read More of this Review ]

Review: Chasin' Eights by Lorelei James

Grade: B or 4 Stars Book number 11 of the Rough Riders series doesn’t disappoint. Favorite Quote: …Then Chase was right in her face. “I’d never demand something from you that makes you uncomfortable.  And no one, man or woman, gets to put their hands on you, because in case you haven’t noticed? When it comes to you? I. Don’t. Fucking. Share.” Chase ‘Chasin’ Tail’ McKay is a pro bull-rider with a mammoth chip on his shoulder. Kicked off the tour when he is found in a compromising position with not one–but two–ladies, he is on a mission to get [ Read More of this Review ]
