    [Book Review] Takeover By Anna Zabo & Cafe Du Monde Coffee and Chicory

    Sam Anderson cuts a fine figure in his perfectly tailored power suits. A high-powered CEO, Sam commands respect in the boardroom – sadly he feels he has to hide the fact that he’s gay to keep that respect. And if he’s worried about the truth about his sexual orientation getting out, he’s absolutely terrified about others finding out about his submissive and masochistic bedroom preferences.

The girl is the latest victim of the serial killer known as the Cheshire Cat. Back at Radcliffe Lunatic Asylum, Professor Carter Pillar, a hookah-smoking philosophy professor turned serial killer himself (known as Pillar The Killer), has a plan to stop the Cheshire Cat and ropes fellow patient Alice Wonder, a nineteen-year-old girl with no memories who was institutionalized after killing a bus-load of her peers, into helping.

    [Book Review] Black Widow By Jennifer Estep & Coffee Beanery Caramel Apple

    Gin Blanco, the badass ice and stone elemental wielding assassin with a seemingly perpetual target on her back, is back in the 12th installment of the Elemental Assassin series. The person targeting Gin this time around is very different from her usual adversaries – M.M. Monroe is calm, confident, and very very cunning, patiently bidding her time and quietly weaving a web of misfortune around Gin and her friends from behind the scenes using all the power money and connections can buy in a town as overrun with corruption as Ashland, and that’s before she even unleashes a drop of the powerful acid magic she has at her finger tips.
