A while back I asked on Twitter if you wanted to see something specific from me for Wyrd and Wonder this year. I got a suggestion for some subgenre discussions which was backed by more people. The one I’m going for now is Paranormal vs urban fantasy. Subgenres can be hard to determine because so… Continue reading Paranormal vs Urban Fantasy | #WyrdandWonder
Recently the 2021 Hugo Awards finalists were announced. And I saw quite a few familiar names pass me by. Books I read, books I still want to read. I figured this was as a good a year as any to have a go at reading the most of these finalists. Having read more of the… Continue reading Hugo Awards 2021 Finalists | What I Want to Read Before the Winners Are Announced
On October 27th it started. The Goodreads Choice Awards for 2020. It had Best Books 2020 in the browser, but lets be real, it is a popularity contest. It is also hard to call it 2020 when there are 2 months being conveniently left out. Even so I still voted along the way and I… Continue reading Goodreads Choice Awards 2020
Vampires are such a known supernatural creature in fiction and in media in general. There is something that is oddly appealing about a guy seducing you for your blood.

I guess for the most part I have just always been so worried that there is going to be a… Continue reading Those Pesky Favorite Authors
Blogtober seems to be the month I talk about novella’s so I figured why not share my TBR. There are so many novella’s I’ve heard about but have yet to read. I think it is a real shame that you don’t very often see novella’s in stores or I would have picked up so many… Continue reading Novella (Series) I’d Still Like to Read | #Blogtober
Back in 2018 I shared a list of favorite novellas and short stories for Top Ten Tuesday. Since then I’ve read a lot more novella’s, many in a series of sorts. I’ve talked about why I love novella series so much these days last week. So for today I just want to share some of… Continue reading Time for Some SFF Novella’s | #Blogtober
One thing that I love asking for my birthday are books. If you have followed my blog for a while you will have noticed that. There is nothing else that will make me happier. So people give me what I want. Yeay for me. However sometimes it can take a while before I actually get… Continue reading What Have I Read From My Birthday Hauls? | #Blogtober
Most of the time we get a real hero. Someone with all the morals and good intentions. And that is nice. But sometimes I need something gritty, complex and someone I want to give a good smack for making a selfish decision. What? I’m just speaking the truth. Which brings us to the antihero. Protagonist,… Continue reading Time to Talk About Antihero(ines) | #Blogtober
