Basically Wolf by Wolf in condensed version and in Luka's POV. Not really necessary but it's a good refresher before I start reading Blood for Blood! Basically Wolf by Wolf in condensed version and in Luka's POV. Not really necessary but it's a good refresher before I start reading Blood for Blood! Since I haven't read Wolf by Wolf since 2015. And it's cute to see that there's more romance on Luka's end than Adele's end!

This was a view into some of the Mogadorians as they are attacking Earth.

Pretty cool POV switch-up from all of the other novellas, where it was only humans and Loric. Interesting to see the other side. Doesn't mean I like 'em though!

Synthesized narrator = blech but that aside, I enjoyed my first novel by Shaun David Hutchinson in a novel that is not usually hisNetGalley Audio ARC.
Synthesized narrator = blech but that aside, I enjoyed my first novel by Shaun David Hutchinson in a novel that is not usually his wheelhouse, I think. This is a straight-up fantasy! I liked the time period and the characters a lot, the World's Fair, so exciting!! I didn't like the magicians and how they treated their underlings, their "children." One was kidnapped as a child! Ahhh! But Jack and Wilhelm were a great team. I don't really like the cover art though, it seems, I don't know, childish. I don't like the artwork, the faces are too pointy.

Won Finished Paperback in BookishFirst.com Giveaway!
A Banh Mi for Two is Trinity Nguyen's debut novel about a Vietnamese young woman and a Vietnamese Won Finished Paperback in BookishFirst.com Giveaway!
A Banh Mi for Two is Trinity Nguyen's debut novel about a Vietnamese young woman and a Vietnamese American young woman who are connected by a food blog. Lan runs a food blog about Sai Gon and Vivi is an avid follower of Lan's blog and Instagram. Vivi's mother left Viet Nam when she was young and refuses to talk about it so Vivi takes matters into her own hands and participates in a study abroad program in Viet Nam, though her parents think she is in Singapore. That seemed a little unbelievable to me. I don't see an 18-year-old pulling that kind of scam over on her parents. But aside from that, Vivi and her best friend Cindy study in Viet Nam and end up meeting Lan. Hijinks ensue, kisses happen, it's all very sweet. Lan is feeling stuck in Sai Gon and uninspired but Vivi changes that. I still don't agree with what Vivi did, it's really not her place to question her mother's reasons for not talking about something, I thought it was really disrespectful towards Vivi's mother. Cute sapphic book though. And food talk was top tier. Love Vietnamese food!...more
I read Masque of the Red Death back in 2012 and I'm finally getting around to reading the novella and sequel! lol. This novella didn't do a whole lot I read Masque of the Red Death back in 2012 and I'm finally getting around to reading the novella and sequel! lol. This novella didn't do a whole lot for me. It was a little informational. It gives answers to where April was and some knowledge on Malcontent. I feel I will be able to navigate my way through Dance of the Red Death.
