  I have to start by saying I'm not a big paranormal/fantasy fan and it takes a lot to hold my interest in this genre. I also am not a fan of urban fiction. Even so, Syzygy grabbed me firmly by the wrist from the beginning with Berenstadt's unique word styling and gentle humor and kept yanking until I had no choice but wonder where this "narrated" story would lead. Although at times Bea grated my nerves, the supporting characters were charming/captivating/curious enough that mattered little. In fact, I was more intrigued by the supporting stories than the main line. And yet, that didn't bother me, either. The twist was in just the right place and the story moved along well. Syzygy is what an indie book should be: experimental, unique, well-written, and thoughtful. The deeper themes running through make this much more than a fun fantasy. Amanda Berenstadt is an author to watch.

  A sweet story. I love real character growth!
  
• Lemon and Lace on Feb. 11, 2013
  
  These three quick life vignettes have some very nice mood and imagery as well as real characters. I feel they could all have more to say and would enjoy reading them as longer shorts or even novellas. I'll watch for more Jenny Worstall fiction.

  A fun read for a snowy no-power day that made the time fly.
  
• Drayden's Queen on Jan. 01, 2018
  
  J.A. Fleming's debut novel, Drayden's Queen, the first of the Curse of Royalty series, features intrigue, romance, and adventure with an historical/literary feel. Peydra, while learning the tasks of her new position, also must learn what's inside herself and of how much she is capable. There's also the issue of who to trust and who to keep a close eye on, inside and outside her castle and kingdom. Fleming has an eye for detail that brings the reader right inside the story and her love for her characters shines through with their every movement and every bit of dialogue. A recommended read.
