Magic never helped Jax, whose leg was crushed … Continue reading

17 Amazing Books You Need to Read Coming Out Winter 2021

It took me so long to post this that the title probably should read, “Books You May Have Missed From Winter 2021.” I’m still trying to find my normal after a miscarriage right at the end of the year, so many of my best laid plans have just not come about.

But that was before he learned that at the end of each autumn, he would turn into a vicious beast hell-bent on destruction. That was … Continue reading
