Epic Fantasy, Action, Adventure, Romance. I have been waiting for a chance to read The Fallen Queen for quite some time now. I’ve had the privilege of catching some snippets of the book while playing on Twitter, and the concept intrigued me, so I jumped at the chance to get my hands on an Advanced Reader Copy (ARC) of the book.

Caz Tallis restores rocking horses for a living. We learn quite a bit about the horses throughout the story. Caz isn’t used to living an intriguing life. She’s more like the nice, hard-working girl who puts a lot of hours in for little pay, but pursues her art for the sheer joy it gives her of seeing the completed rocking horses like the day they were first made. Many of them come to her as broken down wrecks with pieces missing from lots of wear and tear. She enjoys the calm peacefulness of restoring the horses in her workshop and the casual friendship she has with James, her childhood friend, who she sees at least once a week.

This is a somewhat predictable but enjoyable story about a childhood romance that never really died away. Nick and Katherine met one summer as teenagers while vacationing at the lake. Nick’s mother let Katherine know she was beneath her son when she was invited to their big estate for tea. They had servants for everything and it was all so formal that Katherine felt very out of place.

Cancer. The very word can act like the disease itself and worm its way through our bodies, eating at us from the inside out. It is a word which strikes fear in our hearts to hear it pronounced as a diagnosis.

Impressed with Mr. Courtois’s last book, A Report from Winter, I gladly accepted the invitation to read his latest, Tales My Body Told Me. I found the title and the book’s cover to be intriguing enough and the description of the book was also just as appealing. The book centers around Paul, a middle aged gay man who finds himself in East Oak House in Maine with four other gay men who are “recovering homosexuals.” At first, it seems that location plays an important part in the story.

At first glance, the title of Iolanthe Woulff’s book, She’s My Dad, may seem confusing, but don’t be alarmed. Once you learn what the book is actually about, the title will make complete sense. There’s always been a great debate surrounding the old saying, “Write what you know.” The subject matter of this book is obviously something Mrs. Woulff knows a lot about because she has lived it. Mrs. Woulff is a transexual woman.
