I would like to extend a sincere thank you to NetGalley and Ecco Books for the ARC of Aimee Nezhukumatathil’s gorgeous collection “Night Owl.” It is very appreciated! This volume of poetry is a treasure. Aimee Nezhukumatathil is a gifted writer; I loved her book “World of Wonders.” This is her first volume of poetry…

Thank you NetGalley and Pen and Sword Books for the advance review copy of “The Lister Sisters” by Rebecca Batley. Anne Lister is such an interesting figure in history. She was a landowner in a time when women were generally not permitted to own any property, as well as an architectural and landscaping designer, invested…

A huge thank you to NetGalley and Histria Books for the review copy of B. K. O’Connor’s beautiful book “Eve.” It is very appreciated! I initially rated this book four stars on Goodreads, but I am revising that to a full five; this book was so good it deserves all of the stars. Some years…

Thank you NetGalley and Cariad Publishing House for the review copy on Hallie Pursel’s fantastic “Veilmarch”! This book was amazing! Pursel’s characters and their world pulled me right in. Pursel creates a world where Death is a real, quasi-living presence in the world, served by “Veilwalkers,” executioners who cull the sinful by order of the…

Thank you NetGalley and Mariner Books for the review copy of Anna Kovatcheva’s “She Made Herself a Monster.” It is very appreciated! I have been on the hunt for really good fiction, the kind that grabs me with the first paragraph and keeps me in its teeth until the end. Sadly, I am often disappointed.…

Thank you very much NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for the ARC of Amanda Lovelace’s newest collection “the witch doesn’t drown in this one”!

Thank you NetGalley and Pantheon for the review copy of “The Boundless Deep” by Richard Holmes. It is greatly appreciated! I have read some of Tennyson’s poetry–it’s kind of a requirement if you major in English literature–but I had never read a biography of the poet. Richard Holmes’ “The Boundless Deep: Young Tennyson, Science and…

Thank you NetGalley and Ballantine Books for the ARC of “We the Women” by Norah O’Donnell and Kate Anderson Brower, it is much appreciated!“We the Women” offers fascinating snapshots of women history has tried to forget.

Thank you NetGalley and Red Hen Press for the ARC of Laing Rikkers’ lovely book “Morning Leaves.” I thought this was a beautiful book, though I would hesitate to call it poetry. It gave me more of an impression of being a collection of affirmations, which I do not think took away from the overall…
