*I requested this book for review from one of the authors.Fighting and sex. What a combination! Both are moments of heightened emotions. Vikings are the perfect essence to use for this. They are strong in the emotion they portray. And there are so many legends and myths that could be used in their m...
I read through this book in a couple of days, and I liked the story over all, but it is definitely a 1.5 star book. Too much forced humor, too much sex for shock value, too much toeing (or outright stepping over) the line between humor and slurs against many different marginalized peoples. I won't ...
This is a super fun quirky read!! It had my attention from beginning to end!! Wade is more of a straight forward guy and when her meets up with Luce sparks fly! They go from one crazy situation to the next, really fast paced action. Maybe a little too fast at times. Always enjoyable!I adore Luce and...
Vierzehn Kurzgeschichten ziehen in dieser Anthologie LeserInnen in die oft schaurige, pervertierte oder einfach nur surreale Welt des Zirkus.

Anthology. 3.88 stars1. Painted Love by Rob Thurman. Surprise hero. I think the most surprising I've read. Couldn't figure out at first why he was a witness to so much. ***1/22. Three Lives of Lydia by Delilah Dawson. Lydia awakens in a world that she doesn't want to leave. Good story. **...
If you look at a collaboration of short stories by multiple well-known authors you should see it first as what it really is from a marketing perspective. It is a great way to introduce readers to authors of a similar genre or authors in general. Some of which you might never have come across (like m...

Dawson, Kelly Gay, Mark Henry, Hillary Jacques, Jackie Kessler, Kelly Meding, Allison Pang, Nicole Peeler, and Jaye Wells. These authors are either my some of my favorite UF writers or those that I...
*Overall Rating* 3.5I was more than happy to receive Carniepunk from the publisher in both a finished copy as well as E-ARC via Edelweiss. There were a few authors I did not know, nor have I read anything by them previous to reading their short stories. Authors like Kevin Hearne, Jackie Kessler, Hil...
