Do you start if you can’t finish?

November means nano

Posted on November 12, 2017 by

Another tricky week, this week, readers. The Shattered Worlds Read Along finishes today with Miranda Hardy’s Death Knocks, except that I’d already read that, having got myself a bit out of order (it’s fabulous, btw). So there wasn’t a book … Continue reading →

Shattered Worlds Challenge: Curse Breaker

Posted on October 2, 2017 by

Hooray for holiday reading!
