Two quick, light books this week

The Adventures of Pinocchio by Carlo Collodi (1883). A fun, nonsensical 19thC morality tale, with an obnoxious title character

To Wonder and Starshine by @jendiagammon.bsky.social is the ideal uplifting read for this time of year

KDS's review of To Wonder and Starshine
4/5: Another quality collection from Jendia. Although Shadow Galaxy (the previous volume) contained a selection of stories more appealing to me, this is still a uniquely personal collection of stories...

Today I'm reviewing FORGED FOR PROPHECY by Andrew Knighton! 💙📚

Unfortunately, I didn't love it. The story started out promising, but it quickly became a run of the mill quest story. I still love the characters, though, & plan to pick up the next book.

Thanks to Orbit for the eARC via NetGalley!
Forged for Prophecy – ARC Review
Hello, everyone! Today I'm reviewing Forged for Prophecy by Andrew Knighton. The first book in this series, Forged for Destiny, was enjoyable but didn't really wow me. So, I've been curious to see where the sequel would take the story and to see if the series could become a new favorite. Did this follow up become a new favorite? Read on to find out all of my thoughts!

Today, I bring you a review for Cancer Courts My Mother by LindaAnn LoSchiavo.

I struggled to review such a personal and raw reflection on relationships, grief, and love. It's beautifully written.

It's nearing the end of the year, so it seems like a good time to revisit a book tag from last December. Here's the My Life in Books Tag: the 2025 edition.

Take a look and maybe do your own!

Today, I’m getting into the true spirit of Christmas - and that means MURDER, of course - with Alexandra Benedict’s new novel The Christmas Cracker Killer. A group of guests marooned in a luxury hotel. And a killer among them… Lovely! Out now.

My oldest child: "Hockey nicknames are hilarious. "Stank", "Big Tuna", "Wedgie"... what's next, "Bilgewater"?"

As an Avs fan, I love being able to chant "Wedgie" when the goalie makes a big save.

Two films called Good Boy. One sees horror through a dog’s eyes; the other sees a dog in a human. What’s the true existential terror of our bond with dogs? 🐕‍🦺👁️
