Book Review: Neverwhere

Prior to reading Neverwhere, I have already read several Neil Gaiman books and it’s prolly obvious by now that I immensely enjoyed all his works. As of this review, there’s no single Neil Gaiman book that I did not like and I’m glad that Neverwhere would not be the first time. As with the other Gaiman books, Neverwhere has that same whimsy, quirky and yet, profound vibe that are so familiar yet novel with Gaiman’s stories.  How does Neil do it? Being able to weave a lot of stories without losing the individual magic of each one.  Neverwhere was somewhat…

Book Review: A Drop of Corruption

Ever since finishing Robert Jackson Bennett’s The Divine Cities series, I knew that I’m already a fan. And while I have not yet touched his the The Founders Trilogy, rest assured that it’s already added on my TBR list.

You really know how good an author…

Book Review: The Year of the Knife

This review has long been overdue, my bad. I requested the Year of the Knife’s ARC from Netgalley around 2017 and then, life happened. I had an oversight, forgot to download it, and yup, affected my Netgalley review rating. As an OCD, it irks me that I have pending ARCs and the math is not mathing. Heh. So here I am, writing this review. Yep, I have to buy the e-book in order to read the book. Fortunately, despite the obscurity of Year of the Knife, I found it entertaining. I was already hooked as early as the first page…

Book Review: Fangs for Nothing

Wow! Who would have thought that I’d be able to fish a treasure from Netgalley? Fangs for Nothing was a pleasant surprise because to be honest, my expectation for it is that it would just be another vampire story.  And the primary reason why I picked it up because of it’s gorgeous purple cover. It definitely spoke to me and I just had to hit that request button. I’m so glad that the story lived up to the gorgeous cover! Right off the bat, Fangs for Nothing immediately hooked me as I was introduced to our main protagonists, Alaric and…
