Review: Crazy Cupid Love by Amanda Heger


40003942

Crazy Cupid Love
(Let's Get Mythical #1)
Amanda Heger
Release: January 29, 2019
Goodreads Amazon 
ARC provided by the publisher via Netgalley
Eliza Herman has spent years avoiding her calling as a Descendant of Eros. After all, happily-ever-afters are a myth. But when a family crisis requires her to fill in at her family's Cupid-for-hire shop, Eliza finds herself enchanting couples under the watchful eye of her mentor, Jake Sanders.

After Eliza accidentally enchants Jake instead, they set rules to keep his arrow-struck desire at bay. But some rules are meant to be broken, and before long Eliza is rethinking her stance on true love...until they discover a conspiracy that could destroy thousands of relationships--including their own.
Review:

Crazy Cupid Love is kind of an odd book. Seriously, my first thought when I finished it was, "That was odd." But I don't mean that in a bad way, just that it's hard to categorize. The cover blurb mentions Percy Jackson, which is not the right vibe at all. Really the only similarity is that they both involve mythology.

Amanda Heger has a unique take on how the gods might play a role in the modern world. Today's Cupids, like Eliza and her family, are descended from Eros and inherit some of his powers. They are out to public and often run matchmaking businesses. (There's some commentary there on online dating and the commodification of love, but I feel like it gets muddled.)

Descendants of the other gods are not out and many of them look down on the Cupids. But they have a whole secret Descendant community that’s quite fascinating. We meet nymphs, furies, satyrs and a few others over the course of the story. I hope that the next book in the series will feature one of these other groups so we can learn more about them.

Often this book is just over-the-top silly. Eliza's lack of coordination leads to lots of slapstick humor and there's a lifesize sex robot called a Mandroid. Wait til you see its gaming features! All that silliness might overshadow the fact that there’s a sweet friends to lovers story with a charming beta hero. There’s even a mystery to solve, though it doesn’t show up until the last third of the book.

I enjoyed Crazy Cupid Love though I think it’s something you have to be in the mood for. If an adult rom com with a supernatural twist is what you’re craving, give it a shot.

Recommended for fans of: mythology, rom coms, friends to lovers romances

We Love Lists: Books I'm Planning on Rereading in 2019



Each year, I try to reread as many books as I can while still reading a good balance of new releases and backlist titles. So it's not surprising that I've been thinking about the books I want to reread in 2019.


Timekeeper by Tara Sim
I went to pick up Chainbreaker and realized that I couldn't remember much outside the main conflict of the story. Which isn't really surprising when you think about it. I read an ARC of this back in 2016. So to increase my enjoyment when I pick up the rest of the series, I've decided a reread of Timekeeper is in order. I picked up the audiobook and I'm really enjoying the narration so far!


The Queen's Thief Series by Megan Whalen Turner
The last book in The Queen's Thief series comes out this year and I'm not ready! I still haven't read book five and I haven't read the first four since 2011. I'm in desperate need of reread and I've honestly missed reading about Eugenides's shenanigans.


Warbreaker by Brandon Sanderson
I'm hoping that 2019 will be the year I finally read the behemoth called Oathbringer but before I do I need to reread Warbreaker. I've never reread since I first read it when it was published in 2009. I don't remember much and I've had a really good friend tell me that it would be beneficial if I reread it before reading Oathbreaker so that's the plan. I'm kind of excited to reread this. I remember loving it a lot but not much other than that.


The Near Witch by Victoria Schwab
Victoria's debut novel is getting repackaged and rereleased with a gorgeous new cover and I think it's time that I reread it. I remembering loving it but I don't remember much else. Are you starting to sense a theme with this list?


Geekerella by Ashley Poston
Ashley Poston is releasing a companion novel to Geekerella called The Princess and the Fangirl and I'm so excited for it! And because of that, I'm totally in the mood for a Geekerella reread! This is happening and I can't wait to get to it!


The Raven Cycle by Maggie Stiefvater
I've recently convinced a close friend to read this series and I'm going to read it with them for moral support obviously. I've actually been looking for an excuse to pick this series up for a reread and now I have one! I can't wait to revisit Henrietta and watch a friend fall in love with Blue and her Raven Boys! 

Those are the books I know for sure I'm rereading this year. Other candidates in the running are:

The Mercy Thompson/Alpha & Omega Series by Patricia Briggs
The Psy-Changeling Series by Nalini Singh
The Iron Druid Chronicles by Kevin Hearne
The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer
 The VIP Series by Kristen Callihan
The Whyborne & Griffin Series by Jordan L. Hawk

What books are you wanting to reread this year?

Review: Witchbane by Morgan Brice


Witchbane
(Witchbane #1)
Morgan Brice
Release: February 19, 2018
Goodreads Amazon
Seth Tanner and his brother Jesse's fun evening debunking local urban legends ends with Jesse's gruesome murder. Seth vows revenge on Jesse's killer - too bad the murderer has been dead for a hundred years. Seth uncovers a cycle of ritual killings that feed the power of a dark warlock's immortal witch-disciples, and he's hell bent on stopping Jackson Malone from becoming the next victim. He's used to risking his neck. He never intended to risk his heart.

Review:
After picking up Badlands earlier this month and loving it, I picked up all of Morgan Brice's backlist. And I'm so glad I did! While I didn't think this book was as good as Badlands, it was an exciting read from start to finish. The whole plot of this book felt like it could have be ripped from the script pages of the TV show, Supernatural.

Brothers, Seth and Jesse, go on an adventure to debunk a local urban legend and to find a monster but instead the monster finds them and Jesse is brutally murdered in what looks like a ritual killing. Seth is left to figure out what happened to his brother and prevent it from happening again.

Flash forward a few years and he is now a hunter taking care of various supernatural problems while ultimately searching for a way to stop a group of warlocks from killing more innocent people like his brother. Enter in Jackson Malone aka Evan, the next victim in line to be sacrificed.

I ended up really enjoying this story and the romance! The pace was pretty fast with lots of action and full of suspense with a side of steamy times. I loved the whole mystery and how things worked out. The romance was pretty insta-lovey and while I wish it had developed a bit more naturally, I still enjoyed ended up enjoying it overall and couldn't help rooting for Seth and Evan to end up together. Evan and Seth were both fantastically detailed characters, with enough backstory to put their motivations and hangups into perspective, but with a few loose ends to keep you intrigued enough to pick up the next books in the series. And I'm so excited to pick up more books following these two!

I really enjoyed the perspective switching between the two main characters. It lent way more suspense and tension to the story than if it would have been from one POV. Seth kind of has a protector complex which is understandable considering what happened to his brother. He's so hell-bent on saving the life of the next victim that it was a bit frustrating to see him shove everything else aside because of it. I wanted to shake him a few times throughout the story.

On the flip side, it was fascinating to see Evan's side of things and how he was struggling to accept all of the fantastic things Seth was trying to explain to him. A lot of his reactions to present events are colored by events from his past and I'm intrigued to learn more about those.

I ended up reading this book in one sitting and I can't recommend it enough! It's definitely something to pick up if you've been looking for an urban fantasy meets ghosthunters type story with a m/m romance. I loved the ghost aspects of this story and I can't wait to see where the author goes from here. I need more Seth and Evan in my life!

Weres Wanna Know: Why aren't we done with this trope yet?


I read a book recently in which a human falls in love with a shifter. I read a lot of books like that actually, but something about this one bothered me. At the end, the human gains magical powers. Now they're both supernatural and can live Happily Ever After, right? But why did the author think the human needed to change? It's unnecessary, and honestly kind of offensive.

SFF in general is allegorical, whether the author intends it or not. PNR in particular is about people overcoming their differences to find love. But PNR has a long history of undermining its own message. How many times have we seen the heroine (because it's usually the heroine) get turned into a vampire (or a werewolf or whatever) just like the hero before she gets her HEA? 

I've never seen an interracial romance where the heroine has to change her skin color to be with her boyfriend. Maybe she moves to another country or quits her job, but she doesn't abandon her identity. How is giving up her humanity any different? If we accept it’s allegory, it’s not different at all. In an era that champions diversity, why are we still sending a message that what she was is not enough?

Have I lost you? Here's an example. (Warning: I'm about to spoil a four year old animated film.) In the movie Hotel Transylvania 2, Dracula's daughter Mavis is married to a human. Their son is at the age when his fangs should have come in and Dracula starts to worry that his grandson might be human. Mavis is fine with that. She loves humans. She even married one. And just when Drac learns to accept that his grandson is not exactly like him, the boy gets his fangs after all. Watching the movie I'm thinking, "What a great message for my mixed race child!" Aaand then they ruined it.

(And here's a spoiler for a series that ended six years ago.) In the books, Sookie Stackhouse rejected this convention, which is ultimately why she didn't end up with Eric. He assumed that if she stayed with him she would eventually be turned. When she didn't want to become a vampire, he left her behind. Sookie wound up marrying the man who had always accepted her just as she was. She's a role model for her genre really. But it's frustrating that she's the only example I can think of.

I've noticed a shift in recent years to include clear consent in PNR. With its emphasis on Alpha Males, it was not always good about that in the past. And I would expect the genre to embrace diversity as well, but I'm not sure I'm seeing that yet. I mean, here was a 2018 release that felt the need to give the heroine magic. Even if you're not offended, it feels outdated.

When are we going to be done with this trope?

Review: Badlands by Morgan Brice


Badlands
(Badlands #1)
Morgan Brice
Release: June 26, 2018
Goodreads Amazon
Medium and clairvoyant Simon Kincaide owns a Myrtle Beach boardwalk shop where he runs ghost tours, holds séances, and offers private psychic readings, making a fresh start after his abilities cost him his lover and his job as a folklore professor. Jaded cop Vic D’Amato saw something supernatural he couldn’t explain during a shootout several years ago in Pittsburgh and relocated to Myrtle Beach to leave the past behind, still skeptical about the paranormal. But when the search for a serial killer hits a dead end, Vic battles his skepticism to ask Simon for help. As the body count rises, Simon’s involvement makes him a target, and a suspect. But Simon can’t say no, even if it costs him his life and heart.

Review:
You know when Amazon recommends you a Kindle book based on your past purchases and it looks interesting and has good reviews so you buy it and then kind of forget you bought it. Then you stumble upon it again as you're scrolling through your kindle app looking for your next read so you pick it up and end up loving it. That was my experience with Badlands. I'm kicking myself for waiting to read this. I never knew I needed a jaded cop and psychic team up paranormal romance in my life. Add in the fact that it's a queer romance and it just made this book even better!

Simon is a medium that has carved out a life for himself as a ghost tour guide and mentor to psychics in need. Vic on the other hand, has fled from his previous life due to being ridiculed for his brush with the paranormal and is now going through the motions of being a homicide detective, without making any meaningful connections to his new home. I didn't really read the synopsis besides seeing that it was about a psychic. So I went into this thinking it was going to be an urban fantasy book and found myself delighted to find that it really was a paranormal romance.

I loved that the book starts with the mystery of the killer before we even get the meet cute between the main characters. And speaking of meet cutes, what an adorable meet cute it was. Sadly, all the psychic stuff and murder complicates things things between the main characters quickly. I think the reason this book was so good was that the narration switched between both main characters so we were discovering things as they did. The downside is that you kind of end up yelling at the kindle for all the stupid decisions the characters are making. I wanted to tell Simon to stop being so damned independent and I wanted to yell at Vic for thinking that being a jerk is a good idea.

The characters in this book are phenomenal but the death, ghosts and mystery are really what makes this book such a delightfully dark tale. I don't say this often because I love me a good romance but I was so interested in the mystery aspect of this book that I found myself thinking during the romance bits that the author needed to get back to the mystery and leave the sex for later. Don't get me wrong. I loved the romance between Vic and Simon! But in this case, the mystery had most of my interest. About halfway through the book, I started to get excited about all the possible adventures that Simon and Vic could have in the future if they survived this case and started to work together as partners. The possibilities are endless and I just need more Vic and Simon and their friends in my life!

I loved this book so much! It ticked all of my boxes and was a great fit for my Romancepoly challenge pick. This book was what I've been looking for when it comes to PNR/UF m/m romance books. I need more so I was very excited to learn that this is the first book in a series and that we are indeed going to get more Simon and Vic adventures. Bring them them on!

Note: I discovered while buying the other books Morgan Brice (aka Gail Z. Martin. Brice is her m/m PNR penname.) has written that this series is actually one of several companion series written under her Morgan Brice penname and as Gail Z. Martin. I'm super intrigued to see where she takes this world and how the series are going to overlap. I'm in the middle of binge reading her other Morgan Brice series, Witchbane, and it's glorious so far. Just give me all the m/m paranormal romance books, please!

We're also opening it up to anyone who would like to guest post. Do you have a book that you just LURVED but feel like it's not getting the play it deserves? Email us to let us know and we'd be THRILLED to have you post about it here! Especially if its something we haven't reviewed yet - that's even better (but not necessary!)

If you're interested email goldiloxandthethreeweres@gmail.com

Read This F@!%ing Book 62:

The Murderbot Diaries by Martha Wells

I've been trying to figure out the best way to review this series for a couple weeks now because all I can do is fangirl over how good it is and not in a coherent enough manner for a review. Then it hit me the other night that I can do a Read This F@!%ing Book post about it!

I know I've said this about a ton of sci-fi books from last year but The Murderbot Diaries is one of those sci-fi series that has reminded me of why I love the genre so much! The series is about an AI that is part-synthetic, part-organic intelligence, aka a SecUnit, that has been rented out as part of a corporate package to a survey team as their security and when things go south later, MurderBot is pretty much the only thing that’s going to keep the team alive. The subsequent novellas follow our favorite SecUnit as they're pulled into various adventures while traversing inhabited space.

One of the things I love about this series is that takes on the classic commentary about AIs and their sense of self but this time the perspective we get is from that of an AI. And not just any AI. we get one that has... well, issues. I will admit that there’s a strong temptation to quote liberally from all four of these novellas and I will resist as much as possible but some of Murderbot's internal commentary is too poignant and hilarious to not quote.

Murderbot is the Best Non-Human Protagonist You'll Ever Read
Murderbot has quickly entered the domain of one of my favorite characters ever. One of the things I love about them is that they hacked their own coding to completely become a free agent but they still end up doing the job they were were initially created for. All while pretending they hadn't hacked their coding. I also love that Murderbot is unashamedly cranky and awkward while being vocal about how dumb humans are and actively nursing an addiction to TV dramas. But in the end, they still care about the humans that are in their care even though they would rather be left alone to watch the media they've downloaded from the entertainment feeds. The interplay between their ambivalence towards humans, and their persistent, frustrating desire to protect them from themselves is amazing! And I kind of love that as well as the fact that for a scary SecUnit, Murderbot has an anxiety disorder.

“So, I’m awkward with actual humans. It’s not paranoia about my hacked governor module, and it’s not them; it’s me. I know I’m a horrifying murderbot, and they know it, and it makes both of us nervous, which makes me even more nervous. Also, if I’m not in the armor then it’s because I’m wounded and one of my organic parts may fall off and plop on the floor at any moment and no one wants to see that.” [All Systems Red]

I love that Murderbot never sees themselves as human and we get to see the universe through the filter of an AI. They can intercept and interpret data and electromagnetic signals, hack their way into a lot of things, and operate at a frighteningly fast speed. Humans by comparison are awkward and unable to keep up. The frustration and exasperation they feel because of the humans they're protecting is part of what makes this series great.
“As a heartless killing machine, I was a complete failure.” [All Systems Red]
 
A Series About An AI is the Best Story On Being Human
Individually, these novellas are an intriguing set of adventures. But collectively, they form a larger story about a machine coming to understand what it means to be human and figuring out what your identity is. Murderbot is a non-human seeking to operate in a human environment and having to work to deal with the variety of signals and cues that it gets from the people (and TV programs) around them. They learn to empathize and essentially learn what it means to be human in the process. By the end of the series, they can relate to people and their own priorities and forms meaningful connections while risking their “life” for the people that they come to protect and care about rather than just follow their original programming and leaving them to die. Murderbot’s journey is far more compelling as a result. And like humans, they're just trying to get by in the world and are making it up as they go along.

Murderbot Isn't the Only Fantastic Character
Murderbot is an amazing character but part of what makes them that way is the other characters that act as a foil for their character development. I'll be honest. It was pretty damn hilarious listening to its encounters with its new human crew and their attempts to humanize the wryly grumpy killing machine and how Murderbot responds to such showings of support and empathy.

“Yes, talk to Murderbot about its feelings. The idea was so painful I dropped to 97 percent efficiency. I’d rather climb back into Hostile One’s mouth.” [All Systems Red]
 
The scientific team it is charged with protecting is nicely drama free and full of fully fleshed characters you can't hope but root for. Wells manages to wring a good bit of emotive action out of how Murderbot and its crew respond to each other and those interactions are part of what makes the story so great.

“Gurathin turned to me. "So you don't have a governor module, but we could punish you by looking at you."

I looked at him. "Probably, right up until I remember I have guns built into my arms.” [All Systems Red]

The Audiobooks are Fantastic!
I listened to all four novellas on audio and they were amazing! The narrator, Kevin R. Free, does such a fantastic job of bringing not only Murderbot to life but the whole scientific team they're protecting. I know I would have loved this series just reading it but listening to the audio just made it so much better!

I Need the Novel ASAP
Some of the best news we got this year was that we're getting a full-length Murderbot novel in the near future! I need it in my life and I hope we can see more of ART and some of the other characters we met along the way.

Overall, The Murderbot Diaries are really fun pieces of science fiction adventure with compelling characters and great pacing that are great reads for new and old sci-fi fans. I can't recommend these novellas enough!

TBR Bingo: End of 2018 TBR Recap


Towards the end of last year, I made a list of the books I wanted to read before it was 2019. I ended up reading 24 books from the time of that first post till the end of the year which means I made my goal of reading 20 books before 2018 ended. Overall, I feel like I did well on reading books off of my TBR list. Out of the 20 I said I wanted to read, I was able to complete 10!

These are the books I read:

The Random Unread Kindle Books

The Rereads


The End of 2018 TBR Books
 


I loved all of the End of 2018 TBR books I read and that doesn't happen often! A couple of them even made my favorites of the year list. Sadly, I did not achieve a bingo on my card but I got really close in a couple places.


Overall, I feel like I ended the year the way I wanted to reading wise and managed to also metaphorically flip off The Year of the Reading Slump by doing so. I read SO many great books towards the end of the year! Hopefully, I can keep that momentum up for all of 2019!

What was the last book you read in 2018?
