Review: A Mortal Song by Megan Crewe

A Mortal Song by Megan Crewe Rating: 4 stars Blurb: Sora’s life was full of magic–until she discovered it was all a lie. Heir to Mt. Fuji’s spirit kingdom, Sora yearns to finally take on the sacred kami duties. But just as she confronts her parents to make a plea, a ghostly army invades the mountain. Barely escaping with her life, Sora follows her mother’s last instructions to a heart-wrenching discovery: she is a human changeling, raised as a decoy while her parents’ true daughter remained safe but unaware in modern-day Tokyo. Her powers were only borrowed, never her own. […]

Review: Faerie Realm by Emma L Adams

Faerie Realm (The Changeling Chronicles #3) by Emma L. Adams Rating: 4 stars Blurb: I feared that using my magic would bring me closer to the faerie realm I tried so desperately to escape. I was right. I made a promise to a faerie, and they’ve come to deliver. A powerful talisman has disappeared, and without it, the faeries in this realm are losing their magic. Getting involved wasn’t on my plan, but if I refuse to help the faeries find the talisman, I’ll die. To make things more complicated, shifters are being killed by a mysterious masked faerie, and […]

Review: September by Audrey Carlan

September (Calendar Girl #9) by Audrey Carlan Rating: 3 stars Blurb: Vegas, Viscous Exes, and Ventilators. My life felt like a fast ride on a too short highway. Coming home should be roses and rainbows, but nothing that comes out of the desert blooms free. I was most certainly not free. I’d missed my payment to Blaine, owed the last client a hundred grand I didn’t have, and my father was on his deathbed. To make matters worse, Wes was missing in action. As in, no one had seen or heard from him in three weeks. Devastation didn’t begin to […]
