A review for the first book in a new fantasy duology by Hafsah Faizal. A Tempest of Tea is a young adult heist story with tea and vampires. It has a very interesting premise, but unfortunately didn’t quite work for me.

A review for the second book in the Waxways series, A Whisper in the Walls by Scott Reintgen. A well done revenge story, that will keep you turning those pages until the end.
ARC Book Review: The Witch’s Compendium of Monsters
An excellent debut by Genoveva Dimova, Foul Days, is an action packed story full of monsters and characters with a lot of heart. It is dark yet the characters are full of warmth and there is humor throughout that keeps the darkness from overwhelming the story. There is also a light romance that I am rooting for in the next book.
ARC Review: Curse Bearer #1
A review for the new Novella by Veronica Roth, When Among Crows. A riveting dark urban fantasy that takes a look at the themes of redemption, atonement and the things that we fear in life. It is also based on Slavic Mythology and tackles the societal issues of what makes a monster.
