Queen B’s Decree: I was so into Descending Into Madness at first. An Alice in Wonderland retelling with a Christmas spin. Alice was a bit impulsive and had some cutesy wintery curses—holy tinsel!—but the storyline hooked me. I loved the storyline of the evil Queen and the “rebel alliance” on the run, and the variety […]
Queen B’s Decree: All I want for Christmas is a Krampus this year. But the kind that likes to be punished and wants to grovel. Thankfully, Sarah knows what I want. Jolly Cupid is a lighthearted (and dirty 👀) holiday novella featuring a cupid, a reaper, and Krampus. It was weirdly cute, weirdly hot, and […]
Queen B’s Decree: I saw the edges on this book and had to buy it. And yes…I bought it before Halloween. And yes…I read it after Halloween. ✨shrug✨ Spookily Yours was pretty adorable. Willow adopts a cat from the local shelter in her witchy town and surprise, he’s a demon that needs her help to […]
Queen B’s Decree: A monster romance where one of the main characters is the Loch Ness Monster? OF COURSE I’m gonna read it. This book was the perfect mix of ridiculousness, hot chemistry, romance, and true emotional depth. Key is in Scotland to spread her father’s ashes (and meet her estranged grandparents for the first […]
Queen B’s Decree: Phantasma was my kind of fantasy/paranormal story. The story goes from zero to sixty in like two seconds and bam, shit goes down. Ophelia participates in the Wicked Games, and those are basically the paranormal version of the Hunger Games mixed the Dante’s Inferno and the seven circles of Hell. I ✨ate✨ […]
Queen B’s Decree: I never thought I’d be smiling so much during a creepy monster story, but Dating and Dismemberment was delightful. Darla is the Duchess of Death and haunts the camp near her forest, when she develops some ennui, feeling bored with hunting humans. After a sabbatical, a new monster is in town to […]
Queen B’s Decree: A Devil in Every Dark Corner was simultaneously funny, dark, morbid, and creepy and I couldn’t put it down. You know, it reminds me of the Scream movies a bit: some gore, some death, funny one-liners, and characters you root for. I loved Imogen; she wanted to get away from the paranormal […]
Queen B’s Decree: I was so into the first in the series, Dragonfly and I’ve been interested in this pairing since we first met them. And I still really loved Dallan. I enjoyed his protectiveness, how he takes care of all his employees (essentially his family!), his patience…and also face tentacles. But I had a […]
Queen B’s Decree: Cozy werewolf book with a fated mate vibe? And a cat? And a coffee snob? Is there anything in this book I don’t like?? *the devil on my shoulder whispers friends-to-lovers trope* I kid, but in reality the friends-to-lovers trope was done very well here. Raegan and Jamie were legitimately best friends […]
Queen B’s Decree: Deja Brew had potential but didn’t really deliver. Sirena was difficult to relate to. She basically has a Groundhog Day-esque month as a do-over and is reliving the month of October. She wants to get her magic-y witchy cooking mojo back and somehow that includes Gus, an ex-reality star magician trying to […]
