  • The Avengers

    I’m warming up Dragon with a blog post. I’ve discovered it’s a little sluggish first thing, and so I thought I’d do this before using it to write today. I watched The Avengers recently, and I’m apparently the only person on earth who didn’t like...

  • Review: Land of No Angels, by N. R. Wick

    At first glance, Land of No Angels seems like it fits in the post-apocalyptic genre since it’s about a world that was taken over by demons and the people left behind fighting to survive. But once you hear demons, you immediately think it’s a paranormal...

  • Review: Pride and Prejudice and Zombies

    Well, I finally got around to reading this, and realized, while doing so, that I have never actually read Pride and Prejudice. I’ve only seen the movie. I had forgotten how much I adore Jane Austen. I must admit that most of the reason this...

  • Review: Lure, by Stephanie Jenkins

    I found a new awesome indie YA book series. (I think it’s a series. If it ended there, I’m pissed!) Lure is a nice twist on a the same old tired supernatural romance story. This time, there are sirens (yay!) and the girl gets to...

  • FALLEN, by Lauren Kate and FEED, by M. T. Anderson

    I finished two books today. One, the lackluster Fallen, by Lauren Kate, and the other the gut-wrenching Feed by M. T. Anderson. Fallen clocked in at around 236 pages on my ereader, Feed at 204. It took me three days to read Fallen. I read...

  • Gifts of the Blood by Vicki Keire

    This book is a slow burn. But it’s a slow burn worth the wait. Vicki Keire clearly has a gift for language. She can turn a phrase like nobody’s business, giving her descriptions a lilting, poetic quality that’s telling of her background as a multi-degree...

    So, Stillness is over. I’m in the middle of getting a new book ready for publication called Invoke, but right now, you’ve got nothing to read. Look no further than Hush Money by Susan Bischoff. Hush Money is one of those brilliant indie finds that...

    Vampire Diaries Season 2 ep 7

    So, you know what the problem with The Vamp Diaries is? They can’t do an extended story line to save their lives. I mean, seriously. We locked Katherine in the tomb in episode seven???? So, what are you going to do for the other fifteen...
