The Vipers? I’m going to make them regret the day they took me. They can own my body, but they will never have my heart. They want everything I am, everything I have to give, and won’t stop until they get just that. Their scarred, blood-stained hands holding me tight. The old man ran up a debt with them and then sold me to cover his losses. They are not people you mess with, yet my dad did. Their deals are as sordid as their business, and their reputation is enough to bring a grown man to his knees, forcing him to beg for mercy. Ryder, Garrett, Kenzo, and Diesel-The Vipers. My rating: 4 of 5 stars Dark, Contemporary, Stand Alone RHĪvailable on Kindle and Kindle Unlimited Down & Dirtyĭark and gritty, this is an exploration of needs, desires and the consequences of taking what you want.

Doubtless George Saunders’s A Swim in a Pond in the Rain: In Which Four Russians Give a Master Class on Writing, Reading, and Life has been reviewed to a frazzle by now, but I also believe many of Black Fox’s readers have not read this hugely informative book. It is worth reviewing for those readers because it is a window into the creative theories of one of our masters of the short story form, Saunders himself (considered by many the best short story writer in English today), and because the masterful Russian writers analyzed in this book, particularly Chekhov and Tolstoy, are such fertile ground for inspiration. The Emily Windsnap series of children's novels features a 12-year-old girl who lives alone with her mother on a boat by the seaside. Many of her books have been translated into German and her 2021 title When the World Was Ours was nominated for the 2023 Deutscher Jugendliteraturpreis by the youth jury. She has written Young Adult books suitable for older audiences (12+), such as Haunt me that addresses topics of suicide and depression. Her children's books are written at a level suitable for schoolchildren in grades 4 to 7. She is represented by the Felicity Bryan Literary Agency, and her books are published by Orion Children's Books. She did a brief interview with the BBC about creative writing.

I wanted to highlight these quotes from Fredrik Backman’s latest book Anxious People because they made me feel the most. There’ll be another one along tomorrow.” Anxious People by Fredrik Backman Because we made it through this day as well. “But when you get home this evening, when this day is over and the night takes us, allow yourself a deep breath. “You don’t have to prove anything to anyone anymore. That we are all of our next choices, too, all of our tomorrows.” We need to be allowed to convince ourselves that we’re more than the mistakes we made yesterday. But that isn’t true, at least not entirely, because if our past was all that defined us, we’d never be able to put up with ourselves. “They say that a person’s personality is the sum of their experiences. He’s not an antihero he is an unapologetic villain whose loyalties happen to change. Osborn does an excellent job of portraying Phoenix as a singularly selfish character. However, for the first time, we see a more nuanced view of the “bad guys” from Phoenix’s position as one of his leader’s closest advisors. Even when I wanted to smack both men, I understood the constraints that prevented them from being one of the easier love matches, such as Galen and Gray managed. I thought I cried during the dark moment in Castor’s book? I ran through so many more tissues for this one. The angst is real in this book, through every stage of the evolving relationship. They both fill significant positions in their respective hierarchies, and how they deal with their connection could tip the entire balance of the conflict that embroils them.

Though we have only seen their interactions from other perspectives until now, their eventual clash was less inevitable and more like watching a train wreck in progress. The fated mate connection between Bellamy (avatar of Lust) and Phoenix (demon and all-around snarky dude) has been teased for a few books.
