This is the final book available for the Embraced series. The title sounds slightly less hokey, though my guess is it’s supposed to be a play on How to Love Yourself. I might be wrong, but I don’t much care. Quick story time: Officially this book is Embraced by Magic Book 1 because, in case you didn’t notice, Kerrelyn Sparks…

Although I have well over a dozen books that I’m supposed to be reading for my 2020 resolution, the next book in the Embraced series was released, so I’m playing catch-up on all of them and re-reading the first three, so I remember who these women are, who their men are, and how they’re all connected in this particular world.…

Hello all! Happy Thanksgiving to those in the USA who celebrate it. The “official” winter holiday shopping season kicks off tomorrow (even though there are some businesses who have decided to open up today, but that’s neither here nor there, and nobody wants to hear me gripe about that). Either way, the gift-giving season is upon us! I asked our…
