Sunday Favorites, Fantasy
Fantasy is a relatively new genre for me. I only started reading it a few years ago, so this isn't going to be a huge list. Additionally, I'm not a fan of science fiction, so fantasy books that lean heavily on sci-fi don't really interest me. But I love this genre, it's exciting, and it… Continue reading Sunday Favorites, Fantasy

Order of Dust, Nicholas J. Evans
Some of us have certain ideas of where we go when we die, but the truth of it is, we don’t know. I liked the take of being able to get revenge on the one who was responsible for your death. If I’ve learned anything from books and movies, hate simmers long after your death.… Continue reading Order of Dust, Nicholas J. Evans
The Bright Fish, James Ward
I was glad I checked the genre and reviews before starting this because the blurb makes this sound like it’s just a bizarre mystery. The genre says metaphysical, and that isn’t quite apt. It should be in the paranormal and fantasy sections. That being said, if you go on reading with that in mind, you… Continue reading The Bright Fish, James Ward

Even if We Break, Marieke Nijkamp
I requested this one from Sourcebooks Fire because the blurb had me hooked. Who doesn’t want to see how a bunch of teens in the face of their secrets exposed? I hadn’t read Nijkamp before, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. The cast of characters is inclusive, and while I think there’s good representation,… Continue reading Even if We Break, Marieke Nijkamp
