Inside this gigantic book that I sort of liked was a fascinating novella that I loved.

This year marks my sixth Cannonball, and yet, somehow, this is the only book in The Passage trilogy that I’ve reviewed. I’m not quite sure how that happened, but I imagine it can be blamed on babies and whatnot. I loved the first book, The Passage. I thought it was exciting and original, and I was name dropping Justin Cronin left and right. He was going to be the next Stephen King, and this trilogy was going to be his version of The Stand. You […]

These audiobooks are great. But they’re also terrible. Hells bells, I don’t know what I think.

I’ve now read the first three installments in the Harry Dresden series. Or, to be more specific, I’ve now listened to James Marsters read me the first three installments in the Harry Dresden series. And I still don’t really know what I think. Let me explain. I have no idea what is going on in these books. Yes, I understand that Harry is a wizard who lives in Chicago. I get that he works indirectly with the police and with other, less reputable members of […]

Jumping on the bandwagon here.

Can I just write that I agree with everyone else, and that this is the new Act Like It? Or do I need to say more? How about, if you like (or think you might like) Contemporary Romance, that picking this one up is a no-brainer? This book is witty, filled with delicious and snarky conversation, admirably romantic, and just the right amount of steamy. I mean, jeez. This book makes a night spent sitting on a couch and holding hands while watching ER and eating […]

This wasn’t my favorite entry in the series, but I still can’t wait to find out where its going.

Marked in Flesh is the fourth in a series of books, so really, if you haven’t read any of these yet, I can’t imagine that this would be a good place to start. This book is honestly just filler — the major plot points have already been laid out, most of the main characters have been introduced, its just marking time until some of the larger conflicts occur in future installments. Here’s the main thing about these books. I know that these Anne Bishop novels […]
