A review for the upcoming YA novel by Mike Chen. This is his first foray into the young adult genre and it was a lot of fun to read. Of Sorcery and Science is a nice mix of science fiction and fantasy. Two teens, both chosen ones, use science to explain why magic is failing in the fantasy world they visit.
Monday minis is a chance for me to catch up on my reviews. This week I am reviewing three brilliant books that all of you should consider reading. Your Behavior is Being Monitored by Justin Feinstein is a debut that should not be missed. The other two are also excellent stories that will keep you entertained until the end.
A review for the audiobook version of the second in the Hench series by Natalie Zina Walschots. Villain continues Anna’s story as she continues her descent into her role as a villain. This is a dark story but with very well written characters that you can’t help but like even when they are at their worst.
The Antiquarian’s Object of Desire by India Holton Publication Date: April 21, 2026 Summary from Netgalley: When two history professors and best friends are forced
A review for the audiobook version of Hench by Natalie Zina Walschots. I found this alternate world full of superheroes and villains to be a fascinating look at why someone would choose to work for a ‘villain’. Loved the characters and the story and I am really looking forward to the sequel coming out in May.
A review for the historical fantasy based on the life of Mary Anning. The Geomagician by Jennifer Mandula is a fun story full of science, magic and religion. I really enjoyed reading this reimagined life of Mary Anning and how fossils are used for magic.
