SWOONING FOR ALL THINGS BOOKISH.
The Wish Granter by C. J. Redwine
THE WISH GRANTER is a young adult fantasy set in the same world as The Shadow Queen and is the second book in the Ravenspire series. This time the story takes inspiration from the fairytale Rumpelstiltskin. Be careful what you wish for is, of course, the main motif, and in C. J. Redwine's capable hands, readers have an entertaining read with plenty of danger-filled moments, surprise twists, romance and an evil villain to dislike.
Review: The Shadow Queen by C. J. Redwine
THE SHADOW QUEEN is a dark, fairy-tale inspired fantasy that takes favorite elements from SNOW WHITE and gives readers and fans of retellings an exciting new rendition filled with some surprising twists and exciting additions to the story.
Review: Revenge and the Wild by Michelle Modesto
Cannibals, Ogres, and Vampires...Oh, My!
REVENGE AND THE WILD by Michelle Modesto is a fantastic mash-up of genres that mixes elements together in a wildly eclectic and entertaining read. There're touches of the Wild West, Steampunk, and Paranormal that blend seamlessly together creating a thrilling and almost heady read.
Crimson Bound by Rosamund Hodge
I really loved Rosamund Hodge's first book Cruel Beauty. I was completely swept away by her lush writing, vivid world building, and multifaceted characters that I grew to adore. I immediately knew that I had to read her newest story Crimson Bound featuring her own retelling inspired by "Little Red Riding Hood" and the lesser known tale of "The Girl With No Hands." I wanted to be taken once more to an enchanted land full of poetic inspired imagery - with a new heroine to discover. Crimson Bound unraveled its red thread and took me by the hand into another fantastic read that captivated me until its last page.
