    Listen & Read - Connection

    Throughout the year, I'll dig deeper into the prompts of The Sound of Madness Reading Challenge 2022. I'll talk about the music, the prompt and recommend about 5 books I think would go well with it. The prompt of the week: Connection.

    Timy's Top 10 Reads of 2021

    Like last year, we once again decided to post 3 separate top 10 reads of 2021 lists instead of one mega-list or one with only a couple of picks each. Which, let's face it, would be downright cruelty to ourselves. Our only rule was that any book on these lists has to be read during 2021, regardless of when they were published and by whom. And we had to love them, obviously. Maybe. I mean, when you keep shouting at the author in private for things they did, it's surely a sign of love, right? Even if you call said author names... *ahem* Anyway. First to go is Timy with…

    Book Tag: 90s Music Edition

    As they say, there is always a first time for everything. After nearly 4 years of blogging, it's time for my first ever book tag post! As we all know I'm a music junkie and I'm also a 90s kid, so I just knew if I only ever did one book tag post, it has to be the 90s Music Edition one. With music videos for extra fun!

    Monthly Wrap Up February

    February went away way too fast. I WANT MY BIRTHDAY MONTH BACK! *ahem* We've been busy with SPFBO reading and SoT and a lot of other things. Though, to be absolutely honest, I'm struggling with reading a lot these days, so it's probably about time for me to take a nice long break. But fear not, we still had quite a lot of content in February including reviews, author spotlight, book tours and a lot of other things.

    It's our pleasure to welcome T. Frohock to the Asylum. She is the author of Miserere as well as the Historical Fantasy series, Los Nefilim. Of which the last book, A Song with Teeth will be released on February 9th. We assure you, you don't want to miss out on this series. But let us chat with the author herself and see if we can persuade you further.

    Monthly Wrap Up January

    Well, you guys can't say I don't know how to kick a year off. In the first days of January, I dropped the news of changing the blog's name to Queen's Book Asylum. Then went on and launched my own music-themed reading challenge, The Sound of Madness (still not too late to join). It both feels like it's been a long time ago and yesterday. Weird. Anyway, thankfully we had a lot of other content up on the blog your reading pleasures.

    A Song with Teeth by T. Frohock

    A double review from Jen and Timy for the last book in the Los Nefilim series, A Song with Teeth by T. Frohock. "Their journey is filled with family, love, and sometimes heartbreak but always, it was worthwhile." "It's raw, brutal, emotional and so damn satisfactory."

    Jen's Top 10 Reads of 2020

    After some debate, we decided that instead of doing one short (top 3 reads each which would have been downright cruelty to ourselves), or one very long (top 10 reads each, squeezed together) post on our favorite reads in 2020, we'll do three separate ones. Mainly because we'd like to highlight as many books as we can, regardless of when they were released, if they are indie, self-published, or traditionally published. The only criteria were that we had to read it in 2020. And maybe like it too. A tiny bit. Maybe. Last but not least it's time for Jen's Top 10 Reads of 2020.

    Sneak Peek January

    After taking some time off (haha, as if, let's not think about how many hours I spent with Photoshop among other things, shall we), we are back in full force. There will be quite a few reviews coming in January and we start getting SPFBO reviews out as well. And I'm planning to resurrect an old feature too. As well as launching my own reading challenge for 2021, but more about that tomorrow.
