"Revenge. It was a word that pumped through her blood and set the stars on fire." Poetic prose as sharp as knives. Captivating characters that weave together, plot points ebbing and flowing, unfolding in escalating waves. Oh. And don't forget the stabby girls. All the stabby, stabby girls. These are just a few of the [...]
I'm going to start right in the deep end, and announce, Darkdawn is the perfect series finale. PERFECT!!! The entire series is one of the best things I've ever read, but it's rare that an ending makes me feel so at one with the universe. "Fear is never a choice. But letting it rule you [...]
A few books ago, Pierce Brown introduced us to the quote: "Shit Escalates". So far, in every book in the Red Rising series, Brown has lived up to that quote, escalating the shit to breathtaking heights. But, I'm convinced he broke that term in Dark Age, and now must come up with a new way [...]
"We're all monsters. Some of us just hide it better than others." Stab. My. Black. Heart... I just finished Wicked Saints, and oh beautiful monsters I AM NOT OKAY!!! This book. THIS BOOK!!! *deep breaths* Wicked Saints is phenomenal. Emily Duncan is a wielder of magic and I am captivated and enthralled. This book is [...]
Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who is the stabbiest one of all? I've always loved the darker side to fairy tales. There's something about taking the things I loved as a child and making them dark and devious that makes me so happy. Knowing that the original tales were pretty damn dark to begin with [...]
Is there anything more murdery than vampires? I mean, they live off of BLOOD!!! Their teeth are stabby! They die by getting stabbed with wood in the heart! And, they live forever. That doesn't exactly relate, but IS an excellent vampire selling point, so I felt it necessary to add. Also, vampires are not supposed [...]
A glorious morning my stabby lovelies!!! We're running on beach time today, so sorry not sorry for the later post! I am in a wonderfully relaxed mood, sitting on a balcony, listening to the waves. Life, in short, is very good. I almost don't want to stab anyone today. Almost. I mean, I'm still me, [...]
It's another stabalicious Monday! It also happens to be the very last Monday in August, which means summer is quickly winding down. The days are getting shorter, but that means that the nights are getting longer. And we all know that the nights are dark and full of delicious terrors! In honor of the dark [...]
Oh, hello Monday. I didn't see you, lurking... Well, today's feature just sums up how I feel most Monday's. Like a zombie. I'm sure all the parents with children back in school AGREE! We're all a bit stabby and zombified today. And nothing says stabby more than fighting zombies! Or being a zombie. There's stabbing [...]
Is anyone else feeling like adding some quirk to their murder this morning??? It's sort of like adding cream to your coffee, but more bloody. It's the first Monday in August, which means we're one Monday closer to fall! Which happens to include MY FAVORITE HOLIDAY OF THE YEAR: All Hallows Eve. And, because it's [...]
