I love dipping my toes in a new to me genre and really enjoying what I pick up. I have read fantasy romance but not really much in the way of romantasy. So, I was a little apprehensive and nervous about Crown Of War And Shadow by JR Ward. It is a bit long which feels […]
Mapping The Interior by Stephen Graham Jones | Novella Review
May 4, 2025
I am such a fraidy cat, I mean, I get nervous picking up horror stories these days. I don’t know what happened to make me so chicken in my late 30s. Alas. Stephen Graham Jones is an author who has been hyped by so many of my favorite influencers and the book internets. So, picking […]
