What Feeds Below by Tatiana Schlote-Bonne
Now that it’s October, one of my favorite times of the year has begun. If you’ve been following for a while, you already know that I adore spooky month. I’ve got a few ARCs in the horror genre I’ve been eager to get to, and the time is finally here! The first of these features…

Tallow and Bone by Rhiannon Hargadon
Tallow and Bone is the latest novel from an author I’ve been happy to support before. In turn, she puts a sizeable amount of energy into supporting other authors. I highly recommend her weekly newsletter for some fantastic book recs. She’s written fiction with some fun topics and themes in the past. This time, she’s…

A Deadly Entanglement by Cathy Pegau
Last year, I got to read an ARC copy of A Murderous Business and really enjoyed it. When I got the offer for an ARC of the second book in the series, I didn’t even have to think about it. I immediately agreed. The Harriman & Mancini Mysteries are turning out to be a great…

Heaven’s Tempest by K.J. West
I’m in a few indie author spaces where I’m lucky enough to hear writers gush about their books long before they’re ready for reading. It’s easy to get excited about those projects, and I love offering my services there as an ARC and beta reader. Recently, I saw an author talk about an upcoming release…

The Washwoman at the River’s End by Megan Shade
I first found The Washwoman at the River’s End on social media. I came across a cover reveal video that was absolutely stunning. Of course, I didn’t want to judge a book by its cover, but the description sold me. Not only is it a folklore retelling, but it also brings in a ton of…

A Broken Heart of Blackened Stone by Gina Denny
After my last read, I dove right into another ARC with an upcoming publication date. This is one I was so very excited to see appear in my inbox. It’s a debut novel, but I’ve been following the author for a long time. She has worked in publishing and editing for many years, and gives…

Heir of Prophecy by Analeigh Sbrana
I’ve enjoyed Analeigh Sbrana’s books a lot before. Last summer, I read her duology Lore of the Wilds and Lore of the Tides when the latter published. In this new romantasy, readers get a taste of magical academia with some actual diversity. It includes fae, ghosts, demons, gods, and humans all in conflict. Our main…

Buzzard by Inez Ray
Left Unread is a small but mighty publishing imprint that specifically promotes BIPOC authors and platforms marginalized voices. Every book I have read from them so far has been absolutely phenomenal. Their next title is called Buzzard. It publishes next month, and I was very excited to get my hands on an ARC. This is…

KOBRA by Cris G. Wells
I’ve really enjoyed the bookish opportunities I’ve gotten through The Nerd Fam. They’ve put a lot of phenomenal ARCs in my hands since I’ve started reading them. When they started their monthly Early Reads Book Club, of course I had to sign up. Last month, the chosen book for the group was the upcoming KOBRA…

Nine Goblins by T. Kingfisher
The very first time I read a T. Kingfisher book, I knew I wanted to read all of them. Now, any time I see a title from her that I don’t already have on my shelf, I grab it instantly. Nine Goblins is actually her first book published under that pen name. The novella had…

The Cost of Runes by K.R. House
I have been very excited to write this review. This is the second installment in a series I’ve been loving so far, and this book is even better than the first. I was lucky enough to get to read this one in its beta stage. It was so good that I wanted to shout about…

The Halls of the Dead by S.M. Hallow
I love reading queer horror. Make it Gothic and throw in an intriguing magic system, and there’s no way I could turn it down. So when I stumbled across the description for The Halls of the Dead on NetGalley, I knew I had to apply immediately. I found this one completely by chance while browsing,…
