Sucker Punch by Laurell K. Hamilton My rating: 3 of 5 stars Boring! If I hadn’t been having trouble finding enough to read, I wouldn’t have finished it. I thought there was too much talking in Serpentine, but this volume takes the cake. While Anita is ostensibly in a small Michigan town because a therianthrope has […]
Review: Serpentine by Laurell K. Hamilton
Serpentine by Laurell K. Hamilton My rating: 3 of 5 stars I’m having a little trouble figuring out a rating for this, the 26th (!) book in the Anita Blake series. On the plus side, the book kept me engaged to the point of being a distraction when I needed to do other things. Also, Hamilton […]
Review: The Annihilation Score by Charles Stross
The Annihilation Score by Charles Stross This is the sixth book of the Laundry Files and the first to be narrated by Mo instead of her husband. The plot kept me thoroughly engaged, and I enjoyed Mo’s voice — it was a nice change. I finished the book utterly wrung out, and I think that […]

Grave Secret by Charlaine Harris My rating: 3 of 5 stars I’d say that wraps it up for this series. No, I won’t tell you why I’m saying that, or it’ll ruin the book for you.
Review: Hotter Than Hell
Hotter Than Hell, the latest “Hell” anthology is edited and has an introduction by Kim Harrison. I don’t know if the sexier trend is her choice, a response to market demands, or something else again. The anthology is thicker than most, with longer pieces–short novellas?–by each of the 13 authors. I read a copy from the […]
More Fun Reading from Carrie Vaughn
I really needed another fiction author to follow, right? But I’ve seen this series of books about a werewolf named Kitty, and I finally got a chance to read them. I finished the first, Kitty and the Midnight Hour, today and jumped right into Kitty Goes to Washington. I have Kitty Takes a Holiday all […]
Review: A Lick of Frost, Laurell K. Hamilton
I honestly didn’t think Laurell K. Hamilton had it in her, but A Lick of Frost moved me to tears in spots. She managed real romance. I don’t even like reading romances, and I really hate crying, but I couldn’t help it. I even found a quote to keep. I don’t want to give out any […]
