Yay! I got my review copy of First Tracks by Blake Erickson and Megan Ryan. It's a fun little game about skiing - which is perfect for the summer days, of course. 😀👍 #boardgames #ReviewCopy

Lizzy offering her trust?
More common than you'd think.
Especially when it’s phrased as a challenge.
A grin. A question.
A choice she has to make.

Played our first game of my review copy of @doomlings with the Legends of Enderas expansion. There are some crazy combos and the Treasures add a few extra tactical options. Need to play it a few more times before I can review it, but enjoying it so far. 🙂👍 #ReviewCopy #cardgames

Just setting up my review copy of and starting to learn the rules for Crimson Keep by Nick Warren. It’s such a gorgeously produced game and seems to have really interesting gameplay mechanisms. Can’t wait to finally play it. 🙂👍 #boardgames #ReviewCopy

Just got my review copy of Neon Hope from Hopeful Games. Looks like an interesting little co-op game. 🙂👍 #reviewCopy #boardgames

Just got my review copy of Monster Rock by Amanda Milne and Martin Wallace from SchilMil Games. It seems a bit funky, but probably in a good way. Review is due early next year, so keep an eye out. 😊👍 #boardgames #monsters #ReviewCopy @dinasaidso

To get into the Viking spirit, I got my review copy of Looot from Hachette Boardgames UK. I saw a demo of this at

Yay! I got my review copy of Vrahode: Age of Prophecy. You can't properly see it in the photo, but it's a big beast. It'll take me a while to get into this, but I can't wait to play it and then review it. 😃👍 #boardgames #ReviewCopy

We played a few learning rounds of Ultramassive by Alex Greenberg from Studio Unknown last night. I’ve now reread the rules and spotted a few mistakes we made. Looking forward to playing it properly soon. 🙂👍 #boardgames #ReviewCopy

One of my favorite things about Mastodon is the delightful nerdiness.
You amazing @bookstodon folks introduced me to #LibraryThing -- I don't remember who you were but thank you, wonderful stranger!
Anyway, I took a chance and threw my newest novel Beneath the Gods' Tree into the Early Reviewer pool, so it's available for those who want to request a free advance copy.

75. Rivers and Creaks by Marc Jedel. An interesting mystery that was very much not my thing because the main character felt super unlikable (I think there is a thing as too curmudgeony). That being said, the mystery was at least interesting and wrapped up in a ok manner. I guess this could be for you if you are willing to overlook the flaws. https://www.librarything.com/work/31149364/summary/255149358

68. Roots and Branches: Your Starter Guide to Becoming a Family History Detective by John Elcik. I have a passing interest in genealogy, so reading this for an early review was interesting... however, I expected more to it than just the collection of tips in here. It certainly does take you through from the beginning through various spots in an organized fashion, but I wish it was more in-depth on any given subject. https://www.librarything.com/work/31162101/

61. King of the Mountains: The Remarkable Story of Giuseppe Musolino, Italy's Most Famous Outlaw by Dan Possumato. Fun if short read about an Italian outlaw that I had no idea existed from around the turn of the century. I only wish there was more to his story in the book. https://www.librarything.com/work/12949005/

60. O'Shaughnessy Investigations, Inc: The Cases Nobody Wanted by A.G. Russo. A mystery set in WWII NYC teaming up a woman taking car of her brothers' detective business and an ex-cop to help solve a murder. Editing was all ove the board, and it didn't really click for me. Not sure I'd recommend it for reading. https://www.librarything.com/work/31006520

Hey, Bluencore! Thank you for the free review copy of War of Civilizations. It's nice to have another game from an Indian publisher to review. 😀👍 #boardgames #ReviewCopy #India

50. Eugene J. McGillicuddy's Alien Detective Agency by George Allen Miller. A fun rollicking mix of science fiction and hardboiled detective. The ending cliffhanger is a bit annoying, and the amount of content can be overwhelming, but highly recommended. https://www.librarything.com/work/book/250727811

49. Please DO NOT Go To London: The Ultimate Unhelpful Guide by Jesse Cranford. A fun travel (or maybe anti travel) guide to London. It's definitely a bit repetitive, but it was entertaining. I'm not sure if I want to go there any more than before I read this, but at least I'm a bit more knowledgeable. https://www.librarything.com/work/book/250727792 #bookstodon #reviewcopy

41. Bloodstained Skies: The Core of Rage by Dagmar Rokita. I finished this book only because I got it as a review copy and wanted to give a legitimate review. Too dark, too meandering, too many ways of describing a single character (it would jump from name to pronoun to race to origin planet to side of the conflict in a series of sentences...) Maybe with a good edit it would be better, but otherwise, a big no from me. https://www.librarything.com/work/30444215 #bookstodon #reviewcopy

I was able to give away a few of my author copies of The Heron Kings and The Heron Kings' Flight, but I still have some left, HC and PB.

36. A Deadly Irish Secret by Nancy Nau Sullivan. An interesting "cozy" murder mystery investigated by a journalist on vacation at her (newly discovered) family's castle. I appreciated the setting, but the main character did not appeal to me. Also, the sheer amount of drinking seems excessive? Perhaps it's for other folks, but it wasn't for me. #reviewcopy #bookstodon https://www.librarything.com/work/book/246901805
