Book review time! An Ambitious Woman and her Very Normal Pet was a refreshing take on necromancy. Not often do you read a story where the MC dies in the first chapter. 5⭐️ Full review below:

Lady Drakeslayer is a 5⭐️read. It's like watching a fantasy version of a Marvel movie (but with better dialogue).
I've said it before and I'll say it again, if you haven't started reading The Divine Godsqueen Coda, you need to.

It's been a while since I've read a trad-pub book. But I just got around to reading Murderbot and I had a blast. If you've ever wanted to know what a voicey character was, Murderbot is a great example. Check out my review below:

It doesn't seem like a lot, but this KENP graph makes me really happy. It is clearly a single reader going through TOS at their own pace. But you see at the end, where the page count jumps. That means I did something right with my climax and glued them to the page 😁
