Druid Vices and a Vodka (The Guild Codex: Spellbound #6) by Annette Marie My Rating: 4 stars Genre: Urban Fantasy Age Category: New Adult/ Adult Type of romance: MF Blurb: I’ve said it before, but sometimes I’m a bad person.

The Carnelian Fox (Maiyamon #1) by Kay MacLeod My Rating: 4 stars Genre: Fantasy/ Gamelit Age Category: Young Adult/ New Adult Type of romance: MF Blurb: Monsters don’t exist.
