In the second book of the series, we get a more cohesive storyline as we understand more about the Coven, the Doray's, and Heather and Lucas. The Templar Knights remain the storyline that jolts slightly when we transfer from the Coven to them. I am sure that it will all join together seamlessly in the future! With twists and turns aplenty, this novella packs a pretty punch as the layers are peeled back and the story unfolds.

Well written and with excellent pacing, this book contains no editing or grammatical errors that I found. Definitely recommended. Some M/M and F/F action.

A commercial flop upon it's 1982 release and gaining cult status much later on.
This is a personal favourite and a classic from the Vangelis soundtrack and exquisite performances to the dystopian future visuals, I am fully aware this film is divisive, however I believe this to be one of Scott's finest movies alongside Alien, "I want more time F****r"

F*** Elves
My absolute favorite of the Witches series. Seriously, there is so much awesome in this book, you have to do yourself a favor and read. Pratchett's take on faeries and elves echoes back to the respect once given to them that kept people from enchanted places. Of course, in true STP fashion, there's also quite a bit of fun along the way.

Can follow with very little background, good dialogue and writing, plenty of "Oh, f***!" moments. (0 more)
Can be a little slow, and sometimes a little confusing. (0 more)
Frighteningly Real
I love this. It's frighteningly realistc and engaging. Just when I think I'm starting to get a little bit comfortable in this world, it jars you and leaves you a mess. I haven't been right for days, ya'll.
  
I received this copy and f Buried in the Stacks from Crooked Lane Books through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

Carrie is an interesting character. I really liked her relationship with Evelyn the library ghost.

There's bits dealing with classism here which I was pleasantly surprised by. That's not been dealt with in the cozies I've read.

Solid mystery involving a not very likable victim.

DNF - Disappointed with the little bit that I read. I had hoped for something else something better but it was looking like a soap opera when I was hoping for more like a meet cute/hallmark romance story. I also didn't feel like reading more after the F bombs started. Oh well, I'll do read Christmas by Accident instead because that sounds much better to me.
