I was drawn to Where the Lightning Goes by that incredible cover. But unfortunately the book itself could not quite live up to it.

Night Angel Nemesis | Book 4 of the Night Angel | Arc Review
I was both excited and hesitant to read this continuation of the Night Angel Series. I read the original trilogy about 15 years ago and I remember loving it at the time. I have been meaning to reread it but I never did quite get around to it. And after reading this installment, I think I shouldn't. I should just keep my original fond memories.
The Bone Shard War | Book 3 of The Drowning Empire | ARC Review
The Bone Shard War is overal a satisfying conclusion whose biggest downfall was its length. Two years after the ending of the second book is where The Bone Shard War starts...
Some Desperate Glory | Arc Review
The thing about Some Desperate Glory is that you aren't going to like the characters, especially our main character Kyr. She was raised to be a facist, radicalized.

The Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi | ARC Review
While I enjoyed the authors City of Brass when it first came out, I never much felt inclined to continue on with the series. However when I heard that she was writing an adult fantasy I knew I had to give that a try. And I think I was right to as I feel the story and characters work better for me than her young adult story.
