We're doing a combined post this year because somehow I got through the majority of 2022 without reading a lot of short stories. I know, this upsets me, too. I hope you'll take the time to check out the ones I did read and love, as well as the amazing novels in this list. Short... Continue Reading →

That said, I got to enjoy some lovely stories, and here they are. Paladin's Hope by T. Kingfisher I've been reading this series since it started. Set in the same world as... Continue Reading →
