ApparentParadox reviewed Werewolf in Rusted Armor by Minerva Howe
My favorite in the series
4 stars
I always liked Quinn in the other books, so no surprise that I like his story best. Thiago is a great character as well, and a good match for Quinn.
Reviews and Comments
GWM living in Oregon.I used to love books that would really stretch me, but lately I've needed more solace from the books that I read.
My ratings are as follows: * 5 stars: it's truly a great book, and I'll want to re-read it again and again. * 4 stars: it's a good book, and I enjoyed reading it. I'll probably re-read it. * 3 stars: It's a fine book, just not special. I may re-read it if I'm looking to just relax and not have to think, but I would probably pick up a new book instead. * 2 stars: I finished it, but might have given up if I were in a different mood. * 1 star: I didn't enjoy the book and probably didn't finish it. I wouldn't blanketly recommend against it, because it might speak to someone else.

ApparentParadox finished reading Fire Wings by Jena Wade
I wanted to re-read this because these characters make a cameo in Flight Risk.
ApparentParadox stopped reading Wishing on a Dream by Michele Notaro
Just not into it.
Enjoyable, just not special

This book was enjoyable, but it just didn't grab me. It was difficult to believe that an assassin could be so bad at faking being normal. How could he avoid detection in crowds given how bad he was at small things?
ApparentParadox finished reading Alpha Bear Accountant by Lorelei M. Hart
Quick read, but enjoyable.
ApparentParadox stopped reading The Haunted Hotel by Vawn Cassidy
Just not into this book. The living characters are decent and well drawn, but they just don't grab me. The ghosts and the premise I got from the first few chapters were just annoying. Did not finish.
ApparentParadox reviewed Magic and Mayhem by M.A. Innes
Magic and Mayhem
Enjoyable
3 stars
It’s hard for me to rate this book. I enjoy reading kinky things, but don’t generally like the Daddy/little dynamic. When reading this book, I basically ignore those parts and just enjoy the human who can deal with strangeness.
ApparentParadox reviewed Grave Situation by Louisa Masters
Grave Situation
Good book
4 stars
I was really debating on whether to give this 4 or 5 stars. I really liked the characters, but I don’t know whether I will actually reread this book, and my criteria for 5 stars is that I will definitely reread the book.
If you like snarky protagonists, you’ll like this book.
ApparentParadox reviewed The Edge of Fate by SJ Himes
Back to a good story
4 stars
I was disappointed in the previous book in this series (it seemed like all just bringing together lots of various threads), but am happy with this one. It's nice to see Cian fleshed out and Fenric is a nice complement to Cian.
A Highland Gargoyle's Lucky Star
Enjoyable
4 stars
Light read, but fun
Fun, but uneven pace
3 stars
This was a fun read, but the pace was a bit uneven. Apparently this was originally a Patreon weekly series with input from readers. That may explain the unevenness. Don’t go in expecting a great novel and you’ll probably enjoy this. I’ve really enjoyed some of the author’s other work, so this was a minor let down to me.

I need a light hearted re-read right now, so I chose this book.
ApparentParadox started reading The Necromancer's War by SJ Himes
Re-reading before reading the next in the series.
ApparentParadox reviewed Ten Little Wizards by Randall Garrett
Not for me
1 star
This book was too slow paced for me and spent too much time talking about the back story of the characters from other books/stories. Most of the other Darcy stuff is short stories so they move faster. The other novel also has a faster pace.
ApparentParadox stopped reading Ten Little Wizards by Randall Garrett
Just not in the mood for this book.
