I would like to take a few minutes and talk about one of the most interesting novels I've come across as of yet.

I was offered an e-ARC of Finding Baba Yaga in return for an honest review and took it on a whim due to a life-long fascination with the old witch.

Moiraine Damodred by Dan Dos Santos I don't remember the exact age I first read the Eye of the World, though I must have been pre-teen. I remember my dad having bought the first three - they just came out in Bulgarian for the very first time. I was going to the villa with my... Continue Reading →
A Memory Called Empire by Arkady Martine First of all, look at that cover art. Look at it. It's breathtaking. It creates within you certain expectations, of majesty and power and Empire, of two cultures clashing with one another, of two individuals removed from all others for entirely different reasons.
