I do.

If you've never heard of Kim Harrison, shame on you. SHAME!

She is an amazing writer with an eclectic group of characters that will make you love to read. Seriously, she is amazing and I am a bookie when it comes to her. I once wrote on her blog and she wrote back. I giggled like a school child and told all of m co-workers and friends about the experience.


One of the main reasons that I love her is her Hollows series. Its AMAZING. no seriously, its STUPENDOUS!

Who else could blend supernaturals into one storyline: vampires, fairies, nymphs, elves, demons, and Tinkerbell (pixies).

I'm humbled every time I read one of her novels: "Pg 38 describing Trent, "Elegance coupled with savagery and a frightening grace, magic sung into existence"


So effing amazing! How could you not read this? Did I mention the lesbian tension? Or the hot chemistry between Rachel and Trent, one of the main protagonists, or Rachel and Al (the demon). I mean I'm a little in love with Trent ( He was one of my book boyfriends), yet I hate him a little. Don't you love it when authors can pull that emotion out of you?

NO? Than get off this blog!
Pg 692. "It was beautiful. It made us deadly. It was an ancient war machine. The rings were made for this. And now we had access to the weapons vault."
Dayum!

Check out this series! Amazon, goodreads, B&N

Magic under glass


Magic under glass by Jaclyn Dolamore




Nimira, a girl from Tasim  who has traveled far from home to try and change her fortune. A "trouser girl" trained in the art of dancing, a novelty that has fallen out of fashion and has her living under harsh conditions until an opportunity from a young sorcerer introduces her to a haunted automotan that throws her into the middle of the fiary war.
Intersting characters with a well thought out story that I became engrossed in almost immediately. I liked that this was a unique story: automotan ( wind up robots), humans erecting a wall between themselves and fairies, but mostly the story of Nimira.
This is a solid read worth the charging price, have at it!
