Fantasy books are my bread and butter.
I love to read books from a variety of genres, but almost exclusively only write fantasy book reviews.
It takes a lot of forethought and planning to write book reviews without spoiling the story, and I find that when I read books in order genres, I tend to zone out and enjoy the ride. But with fantasy, my mind is always hyper analyzing every details.
Maybe it’s the writer in me.
Either way, I fantasy book reviews are some of my favorite articles to write. Especially for the more popular books like Crescent City, or really anything by Sarah J. Maas.
I love the discussion that comes from the community when we can all gush about a book we loved.
And with that short little monologue out of the way, I invite you to browse through some of my fantasy book reviews and see if you discover your next favorite read.
Thank you to Astrid Scholte and her agent for the opportunity to receive an ARC to write a League of Liars review.
League of Liars is about a boy named Cayder whose mother died as a result of edem usage, that is extradimensional magic. The use of edem is outlawed could most likely lead to imprisonment.
Cayder wants to be …
Devouring the From Blood and Ash series? Here’s my take on it and my The Crown of Gilded Bones review.
Reading The Crown of Gilded Bones by Jennifer L. Armentrout is like rediscovering a dessert you’d forgot you loved, then devouring it far faster than you’d have liked, at the same time enjoying every bite.
I was late in joining …
Phoenix Flame by Sara Holland is a half-baked, rushed fantasy that was just okay.
As sequel, it works fine, but don’t expect too much going in and you’ll all right.
I knew I wanted to read Phoenix Flame because I enjoyed Havenfall. And after rereading my review for Havenfall, I found myself nodding in agreement to many of the …
I just finished Gilded Serpent by Danielle L. Jensen and whew! What a doozy of a ride that was. It’s easily Jensen’s best book yet.
There are many starting points into this world like Dark Shores and Dark Skies, or even the prequel novella Tarnished Empire. But Gilded Serpent is not one of those points.
If you’ve yet …
What do wine, cheese, and Lore by Alexandra Bracken have in common?
I’ll let you mull that one over for a bit, but I imagine it’s not too difficult of a comparison.
I had been out of touch with YA Fantasy for a few months as I absorbed myself in Brandon Sanderson’s Cosmere when I discovered that Alexandra Bracken had …
Wow.
Wow wow wowzers.
I just finished A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire by Jennifer L. Armentrout just minutes ago and I’m absolutely floored.
I need The Crown of Gilded Bones, like now.
I’ve not felt such a rush in a story since House of Earth and Blood. A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire is absolutely everything you could …
I’m going to do something I never do and start off my review of Rhythm of War with a rating.
5/5 stars
That five comes easily and without regret.
If you’re even reading this review, that likely means you’ve read plenty of Brandon Sanderson books, and if you’re here by chance not knowing Rhythm of War is Book 4 in …
I never thought I’d review a Jennifer L. Armentrout book, but here I am writing one for From Blood and Ash.
The last book of hers I had tried to read was Storm and Fury. I didn’t make it two chapters before I DNF’d the book and said “not my thing.”
To be fair, I’d never read a JLA book …
I debated whether I should post a review of A Court of Frost and Starlight by Sarah J. Maas. There’s really not a whole lot to review.
So this is going to be short.
Like really short.
I didn’t want to read A Court of Frost and Starlight. In fact, I bought it 2 years ago and am just now …
An upfront disclaimer on this review, I read Star Wars Poe Dameron: Free Fall a few months ago. I thought I’d written my review on the book, but according to my shelf on NetGalley I have not.
So I’m going to do my best to write the review now.
I won’t be able to share any of the emotions or …
