Fast Paced Action Thriller Featuring Atypical Hero - Yet Set During "Real"-World Collapse. Straight up: This would have *easily* been a 5* book for me had it been set in lite

All Too Identifiable. Ok, so the first version of this review was basically comparing my life to Vance's as he relates in in this book, but let's face it - y'all don't care about the details there. :D

Brilliant Examination - Yet Outdated By The Author's Day Job Just Before Publication. Define irony. One sense may be writing a book wherein you detail how one Supreme Court decision in particular a few decades ago allowed for an exponential growth

For this blog tour we're doing something I don't think we've ever done in the history of this blog - we're looking at *two* books at once! For this blog tour, we're looking at the Dark Skies Apocalypse series, When The Sky Falls and When The Dawn Breaks by B.R. Spangler.

First, the review for When The Sky Falls I posted to the book sites (BookHype.com / TheStoryGraph.com / Goodreads.com):

Well Documented History Of The Event. The massacre at Kent State happened when my parents were not quite 10 yrs old and still almost as long away from meeting. It wouldn't be until over a decade after this event when they wed, and I was born just a couple of years later. One uncle was already nearly 30 by the time of the massacre, and my youngest aunt was still in middle single digits at the time. The

Is Michelle Alexander Wrong? Not even that arguably, one of the most cited texts in the field of mass incarceration examinations is Michelle Alexander's The New Jim Crow, wh

For this blog tour, we're looking at a book with an intriguing mix of magical realism, cults, and a dual timeline mystery/ thriller. For this blog tour, we're looking at The Body Next Door by Maia Chance.

Mystery/ Thriller With Cults And Magical Realism? Yes Please. First off, if you're turned off by any discussion of cults... this book likely isn't your thing. If you're turned off by any element of magical realism... this book probably isn't your thing. If you can't handle books dealing with domestic violence and/ or sexual assault/ rape... this book probably isn't your thing. If you can't handle books with multiple POVs... this book probably isn't your thing. If you're turned off by books with dual timelines... this book probably isn't your thing. If you're turned off by books with any LGBT characters at all... this book probably isn't your thing.

With all of *that* out of the way, I thought this book was done particularly well and told a not-overly-typical (because it dealt so intrinsically with cults/ life after cults) tale in new and interesting ways (re: magical realism elements). All of the various elements work well to create a story with an admittedly slow start that absolutely heats up later in the text, particularly during a somewhat detailed account of the night everything came crashing down in the earlier timeline. The overall mystery ties both timelines together well, and while the front of the book can seem a bit di

For this blog tour, we're looking at a book where one revelation - hidden deep in the past - can change everything. For this blog tour, we're looking at The Bookseller Of Paris by Suzanne Kelman.

For this blog tour, we're looking at a tale that will be very difficult for a lot of people - but you should read it anyway. For this blog tour, we're looking at Love And Other Lost Things by Melissa Wiesner.

Stoker Meets Doyle With A Touch Of The MCU Approach. If you love the non-sparkly, dark, horrific, brooding, *evil* vampire lore... yo
