Currently Looking For
I’m looking for young adult and middle grade fiction, especially books that readers connect with immediately, thanks to either strength of voice or originality of story. I’m happy to review contemporary, thriller, low fantasy, humor, and dark fiction. Something in a Coen Brother’s kind of vein, with quick plotting, dark laughs, and colorful characters, are all extremely ideal to my taste.
