Damned by high expectations – An ARC review

January 4, 2019 by KatSings Leave a Comment

Full disclosure up front: This was an ARC that I won in a contest on GoodReads. This book is not released until February. I am a HUGE fantasy nerd. The words “epic fantasy series” make me happy. When I won a contest to read what was touted as the fantasy star of 2019, I was thrilled. Then I read the inside cover where it is described as “Uniting the worldbuilding of a Brandon Sanderson with the storytelling verve of a Patrick Rothfuss”and suddenly I was […]

I love Camilla and Adrian. Happily ever after is built into the genre, it is a given. We know before we open the book that Camilla and Adrian will fall in love.

Happiness is reading a good romance months before the actual release date

February 26, 2018 by Malin 4 Comments

Disclaimer! This was an ARC granted to me through NetGalley. It has in no way influenced my review.  Beatrix “Trix” Lane may be tiny, but she also used to be fierce and confident and very ambitious. Until her former boyfriend pretty much broke her down entirely and left her a pale shadow of herself. Now that the star of the fancy acrobatic West End show she’s in has been possibly permanently damaged after a fall, Trix has a chance at the lead role, but she’s […]
