House Rules (Chicagoland Vampires)

Review:The tale of Merit; her love, her house, her honor, gets better with each telling. A great combination of mystery, emotional conflict, humor and imagination make Chloe Neill's series a must read. I can hardly wait for the next tale to begin. Read more

Little Bear's Visit (An I Can Read Book)

Review:There are four separate but related stories in this "I CAN READ Book" and they are all delightful. They flow from one to the other so that first story has Little Bear visiting his grandparents, while the second and third stories are tales that Little Bear's grandmother and then grandfather tell him. And the final story has Little Bear's parents coming to take him home after a wonderful, but tiring day of fun.

To parents and other caregivers this structure means is that we can read/or be... Read more

A Tor.Com Original (Laundry Files Book 9) - A Laundry novella

Review:Stross does it again, combining wit, humor, and horror into a fun little short story that had me grinning like a loon and left me with the creeps. But really, did you need someone to tell you to to read another Laundry Files story? Read more

The Annihilation Score (A Laundry Files Novel)

Review:We depart from Bob's perspective to see Dominique's. Turns out shes an awful person. All she cares about is her emotions and status, and cites bob giving up on the marriage as the worst thing possible. That's immediately following her date with superman and a heavy makeout session! Her solipsism pissed me off something fierce, bob can do better. Read more

The Delirium Brief: A Laundry Files Novel

Review:Excellent addition to the Laundry files, tying up recent forays into other POV characters with Bob Howard. I have mild complaints about too many characters and not enough Bob even here, but it is nothing that should keep someone from reading this entry in the series! Read more
