Abigail reviews Out at the Inn by K’Anne Meinel

September 27, 2014 by Danika Ellis

Yes, that title is a pun. Unsure what I was in the mood to read, I started this book because from my cursory glance at the description I thought it was a mystery novel. It quickly became apparent that it was not. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find that I was enjoying the novel,Read More

Abigail reviews Puzzled by the Clues by Jean Sheldon

August 31, 2014 by Danika Ellis

“Fill me in, Nora. A dope-buying professor, a group of Nazi sympathizers, this is way beyond Chicago politics as usual.” That quote seems to nicely encapsulate the ambience of the second book in the Nic and Nora series. Puzzled by the Clues is involved with a much more dramatic plot than its predecessor, She OverheardRead More

Abigail reviews Child of Doors by J.S. Little

July 26, 2014 by Danika Ellis

This book was a wild read from start to finish. It has been a while since I read some truly weird speculative fiction like this. That’s about as specific as I can be about the genre of this book. It was part horror, part paranormal, part science fiction, part fantasy, and possibly meant to beRead More

Abigail reviews She Overheard Murder by Jean Sheldon

April 27, 2014 by Danika Ellis

I never thought to wonder why, but Chicago is the best place for a mystery, and that’s a fact. Lately I have been craving a mystery to read, so I decided to check out She Overheard Murder, by Jean Sheldon. This LAMBDA-nominated story is set in Chicago after the end of WWII and is theRead More

Abigail reviews Riding Fury Home by Chana Wilson

February 24, 2014 by Danika Ellis

A woman telling her own story in her own words is a powerful emotional force. Riding Fury Home by Chana Wilson packs an extra punch because we are invited to witness not only the story of the author’s life, but also of her mother Gloria’s life. The two women are so connected in so manyRead More
