Golden Review
These modern retellings of story-tales are really stepping up their game! This story is a retelling of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Instead of Goldilocks being a naive little girl who just happened to wander into a house full of bears, she is a grown woman who has been trained in order to infiltrate the…
Finder’s Keepers Review (DNF)
I hate to DNF a book, but this is one of the most confusing and poorly written books that I have ever read. I received a free copy in exchange for my honest review. Danielle and her husband Donald are newly married, Danielle is black and her husband is white (trust me this is…

Starbound Review (Shattered Worlds)
So I read the first book in my Shattered Worlds 99 cent boxset. I was disappointed, but the story overall was actually pretty good. Katia has a huge crush on Seth, and has had one since Junior High. However, for some reason Seth has been cold to her ever since they stopped being friends in…
Winter Moon Review
If you’ve played an mmo, you’re likely to have seen her. She comes to an in-game city, probably as a weaker class such as a healer, and asks men for help with a dungeon or for money. The guy “falls in love”, buys her anything she asks for, and then takes her through the dungeon.…
