Review of a Fairy Hunter’s Guide to the Recently Undead by Cynthia Prith
I received a free e-galley in exchange for an honest review. TW’s: death, violence, toxic marriage/borderline abusive, sexual content.

Book Review of Happily Ever After by Jane Lovering
I received a free e-galley in exchange for an honest review My Rating: 4.25 stars CW’s: nothing major, some mentions of death, some mentions of obsessive relationships, some mentions of disability (off page, happened prior to book’s beginning), talks of infidelity/affairs. Honestly, with the state of the world, I needed something cute and fun, something a bit weird with a gothic twist. This book honestly fits that perfect. I liked the narrative (and Andi) right from the start
