The Witch who trades with Death

From the author of Citadel and popular TikTokker C.M. Alongi comes a bewitching new romantic fantasy where a young witch seeks her freedom by forging a deal with Death.

A young witch forced to play concubine for her imperial captor, finally breaks free to find a life of her own, but even those with the power to call Death cannot outrun their past…

All witches must serve the cruel and immortal Emperor Yamueto. But after four years of terror and abuse, Khana not only kills one of his favorite courtiers with her magic, but also discovers the secret of his power and immortality: he’s been making deals with Death. And now, so is she.

Armed with magic that she doesn’t fully understand, Khana flees the empire and stumbles into a small mountain town filled with fierce warriors that ostracize her for being a witch, despite using her abilities to heal their sick and injured. There, her magic and courage are put to the test as she is forced to stop running and fight back against the emperor that wants her dead.

But every deal she makes with Death takes another piece of her soul. And there’s only so much Khana can give before she turns into the very monster she’s trying to destroy..

My Thoughts

the characters are richly written and the world building is amazing. the trigger warnings are very accurate – and well thought about. A very enjoyable read. I have yet to read anything from the author I have not enjoyed.

Naked in Death by JD Robb

THE FIRST NOVEL IN J. D. ROBB’S #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING IN DEATH SERIES

In the year 2058, technology completely rules the world. But for New York City Detective Eve Dallas, one irresistible impulse still rules the heart: passion…

Eve Dallas is a New York police lieutenant hunting for a ruthless killer. In over ten years on the force, she’s seen it all—and knows her survival depends on her instincts. And she’s going against every warning telling her not to get involved with Roarke, an Irish billionaire—and a suspect in Eve’s murder investigation. But passion and seduction have rules of their own, and it’s up to Eve to take a chance in the arms of a man she knows nothing about—except the addictive hunger of needing his touch.

My Thoughts

This is in one of my favorite genres. Romance with the thriller aspect. I love the author in her other pen name so I picked it up to see if it was any good and I was addicted. So much so that I am debating rereading the whole series because she is releasing a new one.  pick it up you will not regret it.

The Lost Boys by Orson Scott Card

Affecting, genuine, poignant, uplifting: a limpid, beautifully orchestrated” thriller about a family’s struggle with evil from a New York Times–bestseller (Kirkus Reviews, starred review).
For Step Fletcher, his pregnant wife DeAnne, and their three children, the move to tiny Steuben, North Carolina, offers new hope and a new beginning. But from the first, life for eight-year-old Stevie is an unending parade of misery and disaster.
Cruelly ostracized at his school, Stevie retreats further and further into himself—and into a strange computer game and a group of imaginary friends.
But there is something eerie about his loyal, invisible new playmates: each shares the name of a child who has recently vanished from the sleepy Southern town. And terror grows for Step and DeAnne as the truth slowly unfolds. For their son has found something savagely evil . . . and it’s coming for Stevie next.
“For Stephen King fans and those who like their suspense mixed with the supernatural.” —Library Journal
“Absorbing . . . the pull of family drama with an overlayer of rising supsense.” —Publishers Weekly

My Thoughts

First let me say I am not a big fan of Orson Scott Card… His books are more science than fiction and that genre has never been my go to. That being said I found this in the library when I was in middle school. I have always been one that devoured all books whether they were my favorite to read or not.

This is a sweet ghost story. Not his usual. Plot twists and well written story makes this one well worth the read.

Sessions with a Demon by Finn O’Malley

Everyone’s got issues, even demons. When Ren, a Synergy demon, begins to show favor towards his assignments it creates concern for his superiors and he is sentenced to the one thing he never expected: Weekly sessions with famed demon therapist Dr. Lilith Madson. A moral debacle ensues when an intriguing human recognizes his presence on the streets and forces him to realize Lilith may have a wicked agenda of her own. Whose slide will he take? The human with the all-consuming need for revenge or the consuming need for revenge or the delusional therapist determined to wreak havoc?

My thoughts:

This one is a mind f*ck. Urban Fantasy that drills into your psyche and tells you that it’s okay to be in need of someone to talk to. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
