Category: Fantasy Book Reviews

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.

Spin the Dawn by Elizabeth Lim – Review

Spin the Dawn Book Review

Spin the Dawn by Elizabeth Lim just floated to the top of my favorites list.

A…MA…ZING!!

24

Did you ever watch that TV show on Fox?

My wife hates it. But it was my favorite show back in the early 2000s.

There’s never been another show that’s had quite the effect on me that 24 did. I discovered the show …

Tiger Queen by Annie Sullivan – Book Review

Tiger Queen Book Review Annie Sullivan

It’s been a long time in coming, but today I finished up Tiger Queen by Annie Sullivan.

In full disclosure, Annie and I are friends and co-admins on the YA Fantasy Addicts Facebook group. I also received an ARC of this book from the publisher (that’s why it’s a long time in coming, cause I’m a little behind. Sorry …

Havenfall by Sara Holland Book Review

Havenfall Book Review Sara Holland

Wow.

So it’s kind of become my thing to start a review with a single word that expresses my feelings on a book.

And wow pretty much sums up Havenfall by Sara Holland.

I’ll be honest, it didn’t start wow.

It started more like meh.

Not MEH meh, but meh.

Am I making sense?

Let’s dive right into the …

Thunderhead by Neal Shusterman – Book Review

Thunderhead Book Review, Neal Shusterman

Welcome to the end of Book 2!

Or perhaps the beginning for you. I promise not to ruin anything. Scratch that. I promise not to ruin anything about THUNDERHEAD. Scythe spoilers will most certainly be present here.

If you’ve found your way to this page, but haven’t seen my review of Scythe, go read that first.

Irma Gerd!

Nameless Queen by Rebecca McLaughlin – Book Review

Nameless Queen Book Review

The Nameless Queen by Rebecca McLaughlin has a lot of heart, some fantastic moments, and a whirlwind of a story that’ll carry you along faster than you can turn the pages.

I was first drawn to this book by:

  1. The Cover
  2. The Title
  3. And the book description sealed the deal.

So what is Nameless Queen about?

Nameless Queen tells the …

Scythe by Neal Shusterman – Book Review

Scythe Book Review Neal Shusterman

Scythe by Neal Shusterman has “best read of the year written all over it.”

What a way to start a review, right?

Nothing like cutting straight to the chase.

I was blown away by this book and I’m kicking myself for letting it sit on the shelf for so long.

Really.

I’d planned on reading this book when it came …

Scavenge the Stars Review

Scavenge the Stars by Tara sim

I’m at a loss for how to begin.

There’s so much to love about Scavenge the Stars by Tara Sim, but there are also many, many flaws that simply can’t be ignored.

Its saving grace is that I didn’t feel really disappointed in this book until about the last ten pages when I realized everything I wanted to happen …

Windwitch by Susan Dennard – Book Review

Windwitch by Susan Dennard Book Review

Windwitch is the second book in the Witchlands series by Susan Dennard.

The cover, as always, is gorgeous. You get a real sense of the story from looking at it. In the opening pages we discover that Merick has been disfigured by seafire, though how much seems to be up for debate throughout the novel.

However, it’s enough that Merick …

Truthwitch by Susan Dennard – Book Review

Truthwitch by Susan Dennard Book Review

Truthwitch is the first book in the Witchlands series by Susan Dennard.

I’m a sucker for beautiful covers as you well know if you’ve followed my reviews as of late, and Truthwitch is no exception. I first saw this book a year or so ago and have had my eyes on it since.

I hadn’t picked it up sooner for …
