Finally caught up on reviews! Submitted to Amazon (🤞 they're accepted), Goodreads, & Storygraph! Highly recommend them all! Books by @scharareeves.bsky.social, @katkinneywrites.bsky.social, @sharkiatwrites.bsky.social, & @karenlykkebo.com!!! #readersky #booksky

5 star review of Battle for the Black Queen by Rebecca & Niamh Schmid!

An excellent part of an excellent series!!!

As always with this series, the world building is amazing! Creatures like the rubii are so imaginative! I loved learning more of the history and politics, as well as the magic!

Characters are complex, even the villains, and the relationships between characters are a lot of fun! I loved all the siblings relationships and dynamics. The friends to lovers aspect of Astra and Louko works so well for them and, again, a lot of fun! They are two of my favorite characters and you just can't help but feel for them!

There was a great twist I didn't see coming and, beware, there's also heart break!!!

I enjoyed learning more about Tyron! And Euracia, talk about a piece of work and a villain you love to hate!!!

I'm really excited to read the rest of the series!!!

5 star review of Demon Marked by Kat Kinney!

I devoured this book like Crème Brûlée devours Ember's cupcakes!!!

A perfect blend of romance, cozy, and mystery!!! Exciting, edge-of-seat chapters mixed with slice of life goodness! And I really appreciated that twist!!! I love when I don't see it coming and this was really well done!

This might be my favorite Kat Kinney book yet, which is saying something because I've seriously loved all her books! I've been excited for Norah and Ember's story since the first Everwood Falls book and it surpassed all high expectations!!! Page 1 , alone, immediately establishes individual character voice you can't help but love and a dynamic you can't help but root for.

I love the themes touching on topics such as letting someone love all of you including the parts of you that you hide!

Ember's gran rocks and ermagawd is Crème Brûlée the cutest!!!

Fun contemporary fantasy, with lots of fun contemporary references! Always love getting to see the other characters after their stories, like Asher & Gwyn and Sage & Gideon! The incorporation of Greek mythology was really cool, too!

5 star review of Rotten Roots by Susanne Schmidt!

An atmospheric spooky read!!!

I got goosebumps reading this! The writing immediately draws you in to this haunting town and you immediately feel connected to Sven! Fi is awesome, too!!! The suspense had me at the edge of my seat and the questions kept me turning the page! When everything is finally revealed, not only are you put in the midst of the horror, but your heart breaks, too!

I really enjoyed learning a bit about German folklore, as well!

I'll definitely be reading the rest of the series!

5 star review of Bear My Heart by Karen Lykkebo!

I absolutely LOVE Karen Lykkebo's writing style! It's the kind of writing you want to savor! Her descriptions are incredible! The story itself is very sweet with lovely characters! The world she crafts on Gods Mountain is full of enchantment and you can feel the magic as you read! I look forward to more in the series!

Ours from book 6: I have it. Blood still splatters the stone in a few places, marking the struggle with (redacted), and it only reminds me of the crimson ocean I have created on this planet. Ckaknimaen has gorged itself on the blood of my own kind, taunting me.

from book 6: "I–I’ll go away and never come back. ANYTHING!” My voice cracks as I search for any reaction from Cyl.

Ours from book 3: Louko couldn’t help but find Keeshiff’s chuckle contagious. Smiling, the younger prince replied, “Think he’ll be jealous?” “I was thinking ‘livid’, but sure, ‘jealous’ works.” Keeshiff shook his head, returning the smile with a grin of his own.

Not our dork of a MC looking death in the face and deciding to talk about his blundered attempt at admitting his feelings to his crush 😂 #booksky

This whole thing with Louko is our favorite part of that book 🤣. Especially with the more serious context of Louko's situation here.

From Askefise: I know she’s right. Her saying it all aloud only makes me feel more trapped than ever. “We’ll find a way,” I say, throat still tight. “We will. I just,” I swallow. “I don’t want to bring anyone else down in the process.”

It's been a fabulous read so far. The narrator likes to poke fun at the fact that one of the MCs takes himself too seriously.

What are you currently reading? Are you enjoying it? I'm reading 'Planting the World: Joseph Banks and his Collectors: An Adventurous History of Botany' by Jordan Goodman. It's research for a fanfic I've been writing.

The land here, too, laid barren, but instead of the blistering summer desert, Val found herself in the biting chill of Winter. The sudden cold offered little to no relief after the sweltering heat she suffered before she closed her eyes to sleep. - A Dance of Bow & Blade #RandomReevesWords

love the quote! I once worked at a tourist attraction and this feels like such a relatable interaction 😆. (yay! We're hoping to bring them back more reliably again! 😊)

intriguing. I like the distinction between her as a person and her as a ruler.

From book 3: “But she’ll wake up alone—she won’t understand—she’ll hurt herself.” His ragged breathing became progressively worse. “Louko, I need you to take deep breaths,” Asher said with practiced calm.

Schara Reeves Press @scharareeves.bsky.social · 05/03/2026

Ours from book 5: Keeshiff and Louko stared at each other, a grin forming once more on Keeshiff’s face even as Louko’s went beet red. But just as Keeshiff was opening his mouth to say something Louko growled, “Shut up.”

oh yikes this is so sad. The poor character 😢

🤣 I love how he instantly goes to "I'm going to die" and not maybe some ceremonial knighting or appointing of first husband or something not death related.

Ours from book 2: The color in his eyes seemed brighter now, holding more color and less pale, and yet the look in them was that of suffering. Why? Why did he deserve this? Why couldn’t Skayla have just left him alone?
