Book Review: The Undercutting of Rosie & Adam by Megan Bannen. This final book in the Hart & Mercy Series is just as wonderful, beautiful, & emotional as the first 2. I will miss this world & characters. I highly recommend this series!

DECEPTION, DEATH & THE DIVINE is a beautiful heartbreaking love story, part of The Rift Series by Lindsey Rhoden. This novella takes place well before A Tether in the Rift, about the gods they worship. I highly recommend this amazing romantasy series

Wildblood. AJ Vrana’s stand-alone novel from the world of The Chaos Cycle Duology. I loved all 3 books. It's full of Slavic lore & mystery. She deals with mental illness realistically, which is so important. I highly recommend this series. Links to reviews below

I came to Bluesky because everyone acts pretty respectful in discussions, even if they disagree. I left the toxicity of Facebook, Threads & Twitter. When I post, I don't expect an obnoxious comment & repost of it. Then to go to the timeline & basically be called an idiot. I blocked the person.
