The SPFBO XI reviews just keep coming!

Budding Rhythm by CrimCat is an enjoyable LitRPG romp where you spend time with a lively protagonist as she stumbles, schemes, and slices her way through a game-like fantasy world

I've been focusing on reading books that have been sitting on my TBR for years. I'm finding many of them just aren't for me. I wonder if I had read them when I first discovered them if the me back then would have enjoyed them. 🤔 #booksky💙📚

Hey! If you're a short story reader, please check out the Unavowed anthology. It was published by Grim Oak Press and features a whole bunch of incredible indie authors... and somehow I snuck in amongst them.

My story is called "My Soul Has Teeth". It's weird.

Check it out!

Sunbathers by Lindz McLeod SFINCs3 Book Review
Sunbathers is for readers looking for a story that makes them uncomfortable. A story that takes the concept of erotic horror and aligns it in a chilling way to how human beings behave.

Thirteen books later, there's still that slightly terrifying moment every time I send my ARCs out, wondering what my first readers will think.
