After traveling through Dragon’s Pass, I’m now at the Wyrd and Wonder Bite Sized Islands. While here, I get to share with you some fantasy short stories and novellas! Sometimes it’s nice to kick back with a shorter tale. Thanks to participating in the inaugural SFINCS competition, I’ve read quite a few recently! So, in no particular order, here are some novellas to discover while visiting the Wyrd and Wonder Bite Sized Islands.
Today’s review is about THE FIREBORNE BLADE by Charlotte Bond. It’s the first novella in The Fireborne Blade series. However, it reads as a standalone. In this first installment, Maddileh, a female knight, embarks on a quest to claim back her favor with the King. To do so she chooses the dangerous goal of retrieving the Fireborne Blade from the legendary White Lady dragon.

For Wyrd and Wonder my first post started at Mount TBR. Up next is my journey to Dragon’s Pass. I decided to keep my journey in the mountains for a little while because it’s nice and quiet. Dragons can be quiet when they want to and I intend to keep the peace. There will be no quests on my part save to share with you books I enjoyed that have dragons.
Like April, my May 2024 TBR list continues to focus on my list of ARCs to read. As expected, most of them fall within the fantasy genre and so are perfect to read during Wyrd and Wonder 2024. While this doesn’t change my May 2024 TBR at all, know that this post is also to fulfill the “Mount TBR” prompt prompt. (This year the Wyrd and Wonder prompts are based off of a map rather than held to a more rigid schedule.)
I’m sure I’ll throw in some other random read because that’s what inevitably happens every month. What can I say? I do tend to mood read, which is why I try to be more selective with my ARC requests these days. I’m also trying to make a dent in my physical book backlog. Anyway, here’s my May 2024 TBR list.

Well, well, what have we here? Seems like it’s time for my April 2024 book blog wrap-up! I surprised myself by posting so many reviews of full-length books. Especially since most of my reading this year so far has been novellas because of the SFINCS. But I’m back! (Back again!) So let’s get crackin’ with April 2024 book blog wrap-up.
