I have been debating with myself about whether or not to do a review of this book because, while I didn't dislike it, I found it to be only mildly interesting and largely forgettable. However, there were things that I did enjoy and so I ultimately decided that I'd take a few minutes to write … Continue reading Book Review: Windwitch by Susan Dennard

Book Review: The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzi Lee
The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzi Lee is a mostly YA historical romance with a tiny fantastical element that becomes a big part of the later plot, but I'm going to review it here anyway because I absolutely loved this book (and here at Way Too Fantasy there is no discrimination about … Continue reading Book Review: The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzi Lee
This Week in Reading: Dragons with Heart, Fitz, and Time Wrinkles
Well, I'm finally doing it--I'm finally going to finish the Farseer Trilogy. I read the first book in this series by Robin Hobb in 2014 and the second one the following year. I've been meaning to read Assassin's Quest ever since but just haven't gotten around to it for various reasons. Ok, really one reason … Continue reading This Week in Reading: Dragons with Heart, Fitz, and Time Wrinkles
Book Review: Buried Heart by Kate Elliott
This morning I finished up Buried Heart by Kate Elliott, the final book in her YA Fantasy series Court of Fives. Oh, what a great end to a great series.

Book Review: The Oddling Prince by Nancy Springer
I'm struggling with a way to begin this review that won't sound like I'm incoherently babbling about how much I loved reading this because, for me, it's just that great a book. So, I'll start in the usual way, with a short summary of the book. The Oddling Prince takes place in the kingdom of … Continue reading Book Review: The Oddling Prince by Nancy Springer
This Week in Reading: Southern Gothic, How-To Feed Your Hero, Young Nobles With a Touch of Fey, and Witchery
This week I'm finishing up two books from last week before starting a couple of new ones. I'm about twenty percent through What Kings Ate and Wizards Drank by Krista D. Ball. So far this has been a pretty fun read. Sure it's non-fiction, but it's also a humorous read and a pretty informative writing guide. … Continue reading This Week in Reading: Southern Gothic, How-To Feed Your Hero, Young Nobles With a Touch of Fey, and Witchery
Book Review: The Sisters Mederos by Patrice Sarath
I was immediately interested in this book because it's a fantasy of manners which is one of my favorite sub-genres of fantasy. I enjoy stories about folks navigating society, especially if they also point out that society's constraints and issues there may be within it. I was not disappointed as The Sisters Mederos does a … Continue reading Book Review: The Sisters Mederos by Patrice Sarath

This Week in Reading: New Adventures in Old Rebellions and Fantastic Obstacle Courses
This week I'm listening to Iron Gold by Pierce Brown, the next trilogy in the Red Rising universe. I was really excited to dive into this one because I absolutely love the Red Rising books, and they're the first audiobooks that made me feel like, yeah, I can listen to audiobooks without my mind wandering … Continue reading This Week in Reading: New Adventures in Old Rebellions and Fantastic Obstacle Courses
