Doombringer by Marcel Liemant
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This was a wonderful fantasy novella. It was truly a quick read but a powerful read. I loved the depths of what Oden, a father, would go for his daughter. The world building was top notch. And representation is so important! I cannot wait to see what else this author does.

I hadn’t read anything by this author before, but the cover alone drew me in. Once I read the synopsis, I knew I had to give it a go, and I’m so glad I did! I dove into this book and didn’t come up for air until the end. While this is a rather short read, I feel like the author did an outstanding job providing enough detail to satisfy any questions I had. I absolutely loved the gray LGBTQI+ heroes in this book and definitely want to see more like them! I highly recommend picking this quick read up as you won’t be disappointed. I am on my way to pick up more books by this author right now!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This was a short and quick read and I hope there is more to come. I want to know more about Oden’s wife and what happened before the time period of this short novel. I want to know more about the magic and more about what happens now. Oden is the main character and he works in a mine in Havoc mountain trying to find lucent crystals full of magic. He has infused many of these crystals to his body and is also doing a spell called Brillious so his daughter Penny can’t see the truth of what is happening to the small town. The town is going to burn again unless he can figure out what is happening and how he can fix it. Tinnor is his best friend and will sit and listen to his ideas but isn’t sure if he can believe him. This one was a short and quick read and I will be keeping my eye out to see if more is to come.

This as an interesting, intriguing, dark fantasy that was so well worth the read. A war is coming, and Odin does everything he can to protect his daughter, a war against the Mages. The way the Odin respects if daughter and the strengths and power she carry’s and lets her be that powerful daughter of his. This book was filled with so much going on that it was hard to put it down because I wanted to know what was going to happen next. The story line and building of characters was incredible and really kept my attention. I highly recommend this book.
Grave Digger Academy III by C.A. King
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is the 3rd book in the Grave Digger Academy series. I really recommend reading these books in order so you get the complete picture and complete understanding for the character.
This author is one I am always excited to pick up as I am never disappointed and am always taken on a paranormal adventure that I’ll never forget.
Makayla is returning back to Grave Digger Academy for her 3rd year. But just like the previous years it isn’t going to be easy for Makayla. When she arrives at the academy with her brothers who change their schools to protect her she automatically knows something is wrong.
After all the hype around the Academy Makayla expected the school to be busy so why was it so quiet?
When she notices that some of her friends and teachers haven’t returned she knows she needs to find out what is going on. But can she succeed in getting to the truth without the aid of her helpers? And how dangerous will things become for her when she tries to uncover the truth.
With people questioning whether she is on the side of good or evil she is in a race against time to find the missing people while also keeping herself safe.
Will she be able to survive the 3rd year at Grave Digger Academy?
This is a YA paranormal adventure which is full of twists and turns. It is a fast paced story with great character development. I can’t wait to see what else the author had in store for us with this series.

The third book in the series and I have been waiting to find out what has happened with Makayla, and once again the author has not let us down.<br />The story continues to evolve and is a little grittier and darker than the previous 2 but the plot and characters continue to evolve.<br />The Academy itself has had a turn around and is now where everyone wants to go but there has been a hold on transfers, and all who wanted to transfer out were allocated placements at other academies. So on return Makayla finds things very different. Rules are sharper and even the head mistress is being held under strong views from the Crones.<br />Can Makayla work within the new tough rules and make her way towards her destiny.<br />Another amazingly written book.<br />

Grave Digger Academy III by C.A. King
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
We’re back for year 3 and it just might be the last year at Grave Digger Academy. After last year, it’s a wonder there’s anyone left at this specific school, but what can you do when they refuse to let you leave.
While some things are best left buried, it’s impossible to keep anything hidden long when there is no one left to trust.
Makayla starts out this story with the start of term. It’s year three and maybe this year they’ll actually learn something, but when she arrives with two of her brothers in tow, it seems like things are getting grimmer at Grave Digger Academy.
I enjoyed book three just as much as the first two! It’s fast paced, and quick to follow. My only complaint is how quick it ends! Onto book Four!
Grave Digger Academy III by C.A. King
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is not a standalone book. You need to read the first two in order to understand the backstory of what is going on in this one.
After reading the first two and loving them, I found book three to be somewhat slower. It took me a little bit to get into it because there’s not a lot of action happening up until about chapter twenty. BUT, you need all the information in this story for what is coming in book four.
That being said, I enjoyed the addition of new helper characters, and Makayla learning how to use her tools. And, as always, I enjoyed the unique interpretations of magic and worldbuilding. I feel like the slower pace of this story is building up to something intense for the next book.
Looking forward to continuing the series!
Grave Digger Academy III by C.A. King
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is the third installment of the Grave Digger series and while you can read it as a standalone, I’d definitely recommend reading the books in order, as a lot happens that you don’t want to miss out on. C.A. King has written this amazing, enjoyable YA paranormal series that encompasses not only magic, secrets, and dangerous adventures, but fun to get to know somewhat quirky characters.
Book three has Makayla returning to GDA for her year three with her brothers in tow as her protection detail. They feel they need to watch out for her, especially after her year-two trials and tribulations. But Makayla realizes things are amiss right off the bat, with missing entities and people. Is GDA safe? What happens when more people start disappearing? Will Makayla herself be next if her brothers aren’t allowed to stay with her? Will she be left all alone since her unique group of friends seems to have bailed on her, or will she encounter others to help her along the way? Can she solve the mystery, stay safe, and make it to her year four at GDA, or will the shadows close in as people question whose side she is truly on? Find out these questions and more in the fast-paced magical tale!
I’m so glad I found this series and can’t wait to see what happens next! Be aware going into this series that these books often end on cliffhangers that leave you salivating for more answers, adventures, and just plain great writing!

Festive Fates: 11 Spirited Holiday Tales by Natalie Palma
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This book is such a great way to get into the holiday spirit if you aren’t already or to embrace the holiday spirit more than you already are. This is the collaboration of 11 short stories all centered on the holiday spirit. I wasn’t quite sure what to think when I started reading because of the different authors. Each author has their own writing style and even though this book is composed of short stories, I just didn’t know if it would flow like it a normal book. I was incredibly impressed. The book flowed from story to story but it also had the feel of the same author writing each story. It was a really quick read because of the short stories. I felt like I was on an adventure and making new friends with each story. I highly recommend this book if you are looking to just get lost in a story but maybe not have the time to commit to a full book. These short stories allow for you to leave and come back. I however, couldn’t put it down and kept reading till it was on the last page.

I wasn’t sure what to expect as this was my first book by this author, but I was pleasantly surprised to find a beautiful blend of sci-fi and fantasy. Something I very much appreciated was the names and descriptions of the characters at the beginning of the book. Books play like movies in my head so to have the cast set out from the start earned many brownie points from this reader! The characters are all very relatable and had me very invested quite quickly. The author goes into great detail about the world and the scenes which truly pulls you into the experience fully. I can’t think of anything I would change in this book and I can’t wait for the next in the series! I highly recommend picking this up if you love sci-fi and/or fantasy because this checks both boxes!

Hope For a New World by Renee W. Peek
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
3 Stars
Hope For A New World is the first book in The Hope Series (Gaia’s Voice Series) by Renee W. Peek. This is the first book that I have read by Ms. Peek, so I really didn’t know what to expect from one of her stories. But the cover intrigued me, and the blurb sounded interesting- so I set off to explore.
What I discovered is an original story with quite a lot going on. There are multiple characters, and multiple POVs too, which expands the story considerably. It is a Sci-fi fantasy, with a bit of a ‘message’ about the world/environment, and our part in it all. From environmental messages to telepathic messengers, new-age type beliefs, giving the planet/s a ‘voice’, tension, challenges, drama, and hope – this story takes place in a futuristic setting (2133 -2138)- so over a hundred years into the future.
Whilst I did appreciate the story and messages it contained, I found it difficult to connect fully with some of the characters which made it hard to fully invest in them and the outcome of the story. Some of the characters were very ‘fleshed out’ while others not so much, even though they were part of the ‘main cast’. I really wanted to know more about them, I guess. Some of the dialogue seemed a little stilted and curt/blunt, which made for choppy/clunky interactions. Also, some of the transitions were abrupt, making for a rough flow at times, and adding a little confusion (for me), which kept pulling me out of the flow.
But the overall story was intriguing, and I really liked the premise. Don’t let my opinion put you off grabbing a copy and diving in, as looking at the other reviews, I seem to be the only one with any concerns at all – so this is probably a ‘me issue’. Snap up a copy and make up your own mind.
I am curious to see where the series goes from here, so will explore the other books to find out.
Happy reading…
Thank you, Renee W. Peek!

A breathtaking historical fantasy placed in a rich setting reminiscent of Tuck Everlasting with whimsical magic like the films of Hayao Miyazaki.
Is magic a gift…
or a curse?
In a quaint early 20th century farm town, young Elbert enjoys his ordinary life with his ordinary family.
Or so he thinks. One day, a burning sensation digs into his chest, gentle breezes chafe his skin, and water stings. Soon, feathers sprout across his body.
He discovers magic in the hills, mighty creatures lurking near the river. And Elbert might be one of them. But only he can decide whether to grow the magic spark within himself or let it snuff out.
This poignant story follows a boy struggling with self doubt and grief, and the ones who give him hope enough to break a curse.

Hope For a New World by Renee W. Peek
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Hope for a New World, by Renee W Peek, is the first installment to The Hope Series, and is a beautiful blend of science-fiction and space, with a side of metaphysical and so much more. I enjoyed the distinctly different personality types among the main characters. I felt they were all very well-developed, interesting and I felt a connection with each of them in some way. The strength of these women uniting for a cause they all believe in was very inspiring! The descriptions and intriguing storyline made it very easy to submerge myself into this story, without feeling like anything was repetitive or long-winded. The author really brought to life what I believe to be a very strong first book to this series. All in all, I would definitely suggest to anyone who loves science-fiction, although it goes much further beyond the sci-fi genre. I look forward to the next installment!
