Norwegian secondary school teacher, Geek and reading enthusiast. Married with two cats. Mother of little boy, born in February 2018. Cannonball-veteran. Loves fantasy, romance and YA. Pretty much hates Modernist lit and stream of consciousness writing, yet married a man whose favourite book is James Joyce's Ulysses, so there you go. Strongly opinionated about many things.

Malin's Reviews:

Kim Harrison finishes a series and I finish my double Cannonball

September 21, 2014 by Malin 19 Comments

This is the thirteenth and final book in the Hollows series, and as such, a really very stupid place to start reading. Start at the beginning with Dead Witch Walking. I also shouldn’t have to tell you that this book will most likely contain spoilers for previous books in the series. You have been warned. Proceed at your own risk. Rachel Morgan’s life hasn’t exactly been peaceful since she decided to become an independent runner and start her own business with her vampire friend Ivy and the pixy Jenks. […]

Winter is coming for Toby Daye

September 21, 2014 by Malin Leave a Comment

4.5 stars This is book eight in the October Daye series, and as such, NOT a great place to start reading the books. If you want to start at the beginning, Rosemary and Rue is the book you’re looking for. It is also, by this point, completely impossible for me to review the book without some spoilers for earlier books in the series. You may therefore want to skip this review until you’ve caught up, if you’re worried about that sort of thing. You’d think things would finally be […]

Oberon the wolfhound is my favourite character

September 21, 2014 by Malin Leave a Comment

I’m sorry, but if I’m ever going to reach my double Cannonball, I’m going to have to cut corners somewhere: Atticus O’Sullivan, last of the Druids, lives peacefully in Arizona, running an occult bookshop and shape-shifting in his spare time to hunt with his Irish wolfhound. His neighbours and customers think that this handsome, tattooed Irish dude is about twenty-one years old, when in actuality, he’s twenty-one centuries old. Not to mention: he draws his power from the earth, possesses a sharp wit, and wields […]

Oh, Jane, would it have hurt you to be just a bit more interesting?

September 21, 2014 by Malin Leave a Comment

Jane lives a pampered and privileged life, the only child of a wealthy and influential woman. She’s lonely, insecure and immature. She has no real friends, just people who mainly seem to take pleasure in bullying her. One day, she encounters a robot minstrel, one in a new line of highly realistic, artificially intelligent androids and her life is never the same. Though she is initially frightened by the robot, she’s also fascinated by him and can’t put him out of her mind. She runs […]
