Book Review – Elmwean’s Lodge by Gregory Tasoulas
My review I looked at the cover and I was pretty enamored. I strove hard to get to the root of the book. The concepts written were deep and philosophical.

The plot and worldbuilding … Continue reading Book Review – Elmwean’s Lodge by Gregory Tasoulas

Book Review – The proposal by S. E. Lynes
My review This is one of the most difficult reviews I would have probably written. The book was so different, gruesome in places that I had no idea of what I was reading.
