A review for the newest retelling by Marissa Meyer. The House Saphir is a retelling of sorts of the Bluebeard retelling. This story takes place many generations after the original and focuses on what would happen if Bluebeard’s ghost came back to finish what he started. A mystery with a supernatural twist and a really fun read.
A review for the novel The Unkillable Frank Lightning by Josh Rountree. This story is a retelling of Frankenstein but set in the Old West and features a woman doctor. I found the story to be quite riveting and not as horror filled as the cover might suggest.

A review for the newest fairy tale retelling by T. Kingfisher. A Sorceress Comes to Call is a superb story about good triumphing over evil. It is also about finding your place in life and standing up for yourself. It has great characters that you will find yourself loving and rooting for.
A review for the new book in the Mr Darcy and Miss Tilney cozy mystery series. This one takes us back to the world of Pride and Prejudice with many of the characters from that book making their appearance her. Another nicely done reimagining of the beloved Jane Austen world.
Two reviews for you today, one new book and one book that was published a few years ago. Both were good solid reads, although both were very slow moving at least for me. A Step Past Darkness is a mystery thriller that has a supernatural twist. Endless Water, Starless Sky is the ending of a duology based on the Romeo and Juliet tale.
