#BookReview WHAT THE CAT KNEW by P.D. Workman #ParanormalCozyMystery

Or, to give it it’s full title: What the Cat Knew (Reg Rawlins Psychic Investigator (Paranormal Cozy Mystery) Book 1) Having decided to trend back in the direction of fantasy, but still keeping with my current cozy mystery reading binge, this one turned out to be a good choice. Blurb Reg Rawlins, professional con, has […]

#BookReview Bone Appetit by Rachel Ford #paranormal

Or to give it it’s full title: Bone Appetit (Flint & Co Paranormal Investigations Book 5) Bit of a jump, from book #1 to #5 in just a few days, but that’s because I enjoyed the first one that much I signed up to read the ARC (Advanced Reader Copy) of #5, without feeling the […]

#BookReview NO BONES ABOUT IT by Rachel Ford #paranormal #urbanfantasy

I decided it was about time to depart from my cosy mystery reading binge and get back to a bit of fantasy – in this case, urban fantasy. The somewhat punny title of this one caught my attention, and although I started it with no idea if it was going to float my boat, I’m […]

Latest on the Non-Fiction book (#TradPub) and #BookReview Grave Mistake (Hedgewitch for Hire, #1) by Christine Pope #ParanormalCozyMystery

The book is finally off to the printers. I did point out that I had never been sent a final proof copy, but the editor dismissed this as unecessary, stating that the copy I’d seen was the final one, albeit an uncorrected version. You think? Uncorrected as in around 25 missing diagrams, and around 40 […]

Have you heard of #EcoFantasy?

Ages ago I set out to write an urban fantasy novel, which became DESPRITE MEASURES. Yes, you read that right – it’s a story about a water sprite and I do love a pun. I wanted to write a type of character no one had done before, and settled on an elemental. Many books have […]

#BookReview: Pox You: A Croft and Tabby Short (Croft & Tabby Book 1) by Brad Magnarella #UrbanFantasy

I don’t usually pick up urban fantasy books with a male lead, but somehow this one sounded amusing so I thought I’d give it a go. And I’m glad that I did. The upshot was probably not what the author intended: I didn’t go on and immediately buy the next in series (although I will). […]

#BookReview SPLINTERED MAGIC by Jilleen Dolbeare #Paranormal #UrbanFantasy

The garden is still taking up most of my time just now, so not much progress on the writing front, but that’s normal for me for the longer days and warmer weather. So, on the back of last week’s review of the prequel novelette, SPLINTERCAT, I thought I’d go right ahead and share my review […]

This year’s garden, and #BookReview SPLINTERCAT by Jilleen Dolbeare #Paranormal women’s #UrbanFantasy

I missed out on a post last week due to the much anticipated and welcome arrival of Spring! Despite the lack of warmth and sun leading up to the opening of May, the weeds have been growing like, well, weeds. With the advent of better weather there was (and still is) an urgent need to […]

#Bookreview – Witch Slapped by Dakota Cassidy #paranormal #cosymystery

And another review… This one appealed to me on more than one level, being a combination of two of my favourite genres for light and easy reading, and the fun style of the cover promised a slightly jokey read, as it proved to be. It is also #1 in a series of 15, so plenty […]

#BookReview SADDLED HEARTS by Jan Sikes #RomanticSuspense

I know I’ve promised to share the results of my December promo, and I will, but being a free promo, the results will be slower to appear and analyse, so I will get an initial post about it put together after the end of this month, and then we can try to estimate it FREE […]
