Review: The Borgia Confessions by Alyssa Palombo

by The Lit Bitch1 Comment on Review: The Borgia Confessions by Alyssa Palombo

I have been a fan of Alyssa Palombo since her very first book. I think she is absolutely a fresh voice in historical fiction and I am always down to read one of her new books.

Last year her book on Katrina Van Tassel was so fun and I was eager to see where her next story might take place. When I saw that it was in Italy featuring one of the most notorious families in history, I was so here for it!

Palombo always does a marvelous job researching her novels so that they please history fans but they also have enough character development and intrigue to satisfy fans of fiction too. This book is no exception. Continue reading “Review: The Borgia Confessions by Alyssa Palombo” →

by The Lit BitchLeave a Comment on Special Feature and Q & A: Been There, Married That by Gigi Levangie Grazer

To say that this book sounds comical is an understatement. It sounds like it has all the makings of a great comedy about the crazy twists and turns that life can throw at you, especially when it comes to marriage and divorce.

I couldn’t squeeze this one into my review schedule for the month but I am thrilled to be able to bring you all a little bit about the book and something especially fun, a Q & A with the author!

This book is out tomorrow so be sure to check it out. It sounds so funny and it had all the glitz, glamour, and scandal or Hollywood and the rich and famous! Don’t miss it! Continue reading “Special Feature and Q & A: Been There, Married That by Gigi Levangie Grazer” →

Review: When Falcons Fall (Sebastian St. Cyr #11) by C.S. Harris

by The Lit Bitch1 Comment on Review: When Falcons Fall (Sebastian St. Cyr #11) by C.S. Harris

Now that I have completed this book, I am caught up with the series however I decided to keep reading and re-read the other books in this series so that I could read the later books with a more complete view of the larger narrative.

I was excited for this one because it was going to take us out of London and into the country with the promise of finding out more about Sebastian’s history. That was the big draw for me with this book, but I have to admit, I sort of missed foggy old London.

If you haven’t read this series, this would be a difficult book to pick up and read as a standalone. This one focuses a lot on other treads of Sebastian and Hero’s narrative so if you are thinking of starting here, pick another book. Even the next book in the series would be easier to pick up and read than this one. The series is excellent and I highly recommend reading them all as a series in order but there are some that can read as standalones but again this book isn’t one of them.
