  • March 2025 Reads

    March brought me to the end (maybe?) of the Gillian St. Kevern series “How to Raise Your Werewolf” and “Read by Candlelight.” I say maybe because I’m unsure of reading order and might have missed something inadvertently. I’ve also found a couple of new series. I like to have a few different going so I…

  • February 2025 Reads

    Uh-oh. Someone found a new series to read! As you can see, I continued with the Gillian St. Keven series. I also started on TJ Nichols’ “Familiar Mates” series.

  • The Sandman: Preludes & Nocturnes by Neil Gaiman

I don’t really like the art, but it’s evocative, dark and gross. The level of detail is impressive, however, and…

  • The Last Nanny in Manhattan by K Sterling

    Fun, modern day story about a man who needs help with his terrible triplets and the nanny best suited (or cardiganed) to take on the job. That’s not to mean that I didn’t actually yell while reading this one. The dad is afraid of his own kids and wants to make sure they don’t turn…
