Content warnings: This is the third book in this urban legend-inspired ode to the road, and this book shouldn’t be read without reading the previous books. If you’re like me and are behind on the InCryptid series, this also contains major spoilers for the eighth book (That Ain’t Witchcraft). “Rose Marshall, called the Phantom PromRead the Post
Review: A Killing Frost – Seanan McGuire
Look, there’s a reason this has a super short blurb and an ominous title. The easiest non-spoilery way to review this book is just to say OMG WHAT WHAT WHAT YES WAIT TOBY NO WHAT OMG and leave it at that. If you’re looking for something a little more useful, read on. “We carry ourselvesRead the Post
Review: The Unkindest Tide – Seanan McGuire
Content warnings: For some people, the beginning of September means pumpkin spice lattes, the smell of freshly sharpened pencils, and an end to summer. For me, it means a new October Daye book.

Review: The Brightest Fell – Seanan McGuire

Third, it means a new Seanan McGuire October Day novel is coming out! And this book, oh this book… It’s really hard to review this while staying spoiler-free, but thisRead the Post
