Well, I've finally finished the last book on my list. That means it must be time for another post! The past two months I've been reading a lot more than just the ones I'll list. I've been diving back into my mythology studies, so I've been focusing on indulging in different collections instead of reading pure novels. However, one anthology I will mention later on just because I'm that excited about it. And remember, SPOILERS AHEAD! Within the Sanctuary of Wings by Marie Brennan As I ...

Star Wars: Generation Musings
I have no idea where this is going to go, nor if I'll be coherent and make a point. Part of that dilemma is probably, mostly due to the fact it's after 2 AM, I'm more tired than I want to admit, but I'm avoiding sleeping because I dread returning to work tomorrow. (Ick.)

This thought I had is actually something which initially came to mind during my first viewing of the ...
What’s on my Shelf: In the Labyrinth of Drakes
I have to break from my normal “routine” of things to talk about a book I just finished because it is definitely that good. The book in question is Marie Brennan’s In the Labyrinth of Drakes, book four of her Memoirs of Lady Trent series.

Why? Well, before I can tell you the specifics of this ...
What’s on my Shelf: September-October
Obviously, it’s been a while. I’ve basically got two, almost three, months’ worth of reading material to update y’all on. However, in my defense, one of these months (or at least 4 weeks between September and October) were the High Holy Days, and I didn’t spend time reading much outside my liturgy. Regardless, I have done quite a bit of reading, and I need to just get this over with. This time, however, I will try to be a spoiler-free as possible. The Tropic of Serpents by Marie ...
What’s on my Shelf: Air Awakens Series
Air Awakens, the Complete Series by Elise Kova Where do I begin? Do I begin with the dazzlingly, gripping plot that never lets you go, taking you on an adventure through the lands of the Solaris Empire? Or what about the slow burning romance between the two main characters, the lowly servant girl transformed to savior of the world and the Crown Prince? Maybe how it’s like reading a combination of Cinderella and Avatar: The Last Airbender with subtleties of The Phantom of the Opera? Or the ...
