Such a fab quote from Jonathan Maberry! Thank you!!

“THE SECRET OF THE SAPPHIRE SENTINEL is a wild YA fantasy adventure that explores the nature of heroism in a world of magic and danger. J. Dianne Dotson (Jendia Gammon) gives us a powerful middle book of a sprawling trilogy that does not disappoint! Fun and fantastic!”

- Jonathan Maberry, NY Times bestselling author of ROT & RUIN and NecroTek: COLD WAR

I just read the first book in The Babysitter's Club series, and it's delightful! I wish I could have read this when I was a teenager myself. Just enough low stakes conflict to make the cozy scenes feel earned.

112th read of 2025:

Oathbound (The Legendborn Cycle #3) by Tracy Deonn

Disappointing, as I loved the first two volumes. Oathbound’s main flaw is that it’s too long, with the story starting around page 200 and the action around page 300.

It also relies on Bree's missing memories, which, except for the ultimate reveal of why it happened, I’m not sure how much tension it truly added.

Hoping the next one will be a banger.

3/5 stars

My first beta reader finished the book (IN ONE WEEK WHAT 😱) and I am just quietly vibrating over here with my fidget ring trying not to spontaneously combust.

I can’t write a sad scene without crying. If I can, it just isn’t sad enough.
