Hemlock Universe Book Swag Master List

I always said if I ever did book swag it would be something I’d use if I were a fan of a series. I didn’t want to just do bookmarks since most of my writing is digital. So, I went the route of journals, because you can never have too many of them!

I’ll do my best to keep this list updated as new journals are released!

Hemlock Mpreg Universe Boxset Master List

This morning I received a message on Facebook asking if I had a master list somewhere of all my boxsets. Up until point I did not – unless you counted what Amazon or GoodReads put together on the pages they keep for authors automatically. But still there are a lot of books to sort through to find the boxsets. So, I put together this page to keep them sorted out and hopefully I remember to update this as boxsets are added.

What’s Coming Next for the Hemlock Mpreg Universe?

Time for a little house keeping post. I used to be really good at keeping up with these but I’m in my hectic era of life lol

As a reader, I know longer series get difficult to keep up with and I like to have them all listed in one place – several places to help you all make sure you don’t miss any already out/upcoming books. So my current series books will be listed in the comments. If you’re looking for the reader order for all of my books – it’s in the back of my most recent books and floating around in several posts here and in the group.

So what’s coming up for the Hemlock Universe? Plenty more of this series since Mori hasn’t even come face to face with his mate yet.

I will be taking a detour from the series to write another Mated for Mayhem style book and Diamond’s slice of life book. I know some of you only read M/M and it’s for those who want to read more about her. Not reading it won’t affect your understanding of the series and it won’t get any ‘spicier’ than she and Bree did in The Egg Guardian’s mate. As of right now, I don’t even plan for it to have an open door scene.

From a storytelling perspective, I can’t release the slice of life books just yet, but the two I have will come out at the same time as Diamond’s short. So we have a lot of fun stuff going on and with Clarence and Medwin’s book out I’m down to two plot arcs and feeling less stressed about writing. One of course, is Mori meeting his mate, and the other is one that only 2 other people know about as I move things along in hints and behind the scenes work. I’m excited for you all to be able to read it when it’s time.

That’s all for now! Below is the series list for Mori’s Mementos

find out what happens when Morvan goes to a grief camp, meets his true-mate, and discovers dark secrets from his dead brother’s life are still hanging around to haunt him.

The Baby Hex (Book 2) ( https://amzn.to/4bdjQlO ) In this book, we see more of Crilus, finding out about his magic as he meets his true-mate and defends his bar.

Courted by the Sabertooth (Book 3) ( https://amzn.to/4f2FjyV ) In the third book, Nic meets his mate after a series of attacks. Is he being stalked by the ghost cat or is the ghost cat just trying to court him?

A Drink of Destiny (Book 4) ( https://amzn.to/4bxrVSo ) Alvis meets his mate when Mori dumps his drink on the wrong guy.

A Nightshade Yuletide (Book 5) ( https://amzn.to/3SRYG6y ) In this one, Mori ventures home, just in time for Preston to meet his true-mate. Preston and Wess must deal with not only small cultural difference but also Venal and Sharon Claudis both trying to interfere in their life and take Baby Andy away.

Buried Mate (Book 6) ( https://amzn.to/4pl3hKI ) In this one, we find out why Mori and Preston’s nephew, Lero, has been acting so strange. He’s met his mate who is buried somewhere on a world that isn’t their own. The group has to come together to save Vallis before it’s too late and they lose their chance to be together in this lifetime.

The Egg Guardian’s Mate (Book 7) ( https://amzn.to/4aGBGxp ) Alpha Bear, Jeth, is given the mission of escorting a dragon egg across the Atlantic Ocean. He never expected to meet his true-mate on the ship.

The Villain’s Alpha (Book 8 ) ( https://amzn.to/3SJEYtI ) In this book, Nashen brings a book made from dragon scales to Earthside to try to find its original owner. While in Moonscale London, he meets his true-mate Bernard and together they must solve the mystery and figure out what Nashen has forgotten about himself.

Smitten by the Omega (Book 9) ( https://amzn.to/4f8Lwt8 ) Back in the GGB, Eran and Vatten meet up just as all hell is breaking loose because of Sharon Claudis. They must navigate their relationship, the chaos of three murders, and Vatten’s doubts about their ability to handle a large litter of kittens and puppies!

The Secrets of the Moonscale Dragon Flight (Book 10) ( https://amzn.to/4gqMyDh ) This is Clarence and Medwin’s origin story where we discover how they really met and what they had to go through to be together and save Moonscale London from the evil talons of Roster and Ferrick Moonscale.

Title to be announced (Book 11) This is Jade’s book where in he meets his true-mate and has to navigate sharing his life and being stressed all while worrying someone might attack his business.

Title to be announced (Book 12) This is Delin’s book. I won’t say more in case anyone hasn’t read Book 10 because I’d hate to spoil my own books!

Smitten by the Omega Cover Reveal

Smitten by the Omega is book 9 in the Mori’s Mementos series! ❤

While Mori is in Moonscale London avoiding the person he wants to meet the most, things have gotten wild in the Guardians of Glitter Bomb Territory!

Omega dog shifter, Vatten, has hiked all the way down from the cold north to help Canton’s new puppy adjust to life on the farm. He’s made a living traveling to where non-shifting dogs need him the most. He never expected his trip to the GGB to be anything out of the ordinary, but as soon as he reaches Canton Valley Farm he’s sucked into the life there. While observing a moving party to feel everyone out, Vatten catches a whiff of alpha cat shifter, Eran, and he knows his life is never going to be the same. He’s finally met his true-mate!

Eran’s glad to be back stateside even if his roommate’s true-mate hates him for breathing. He’s also more than a little glad that soon he’ll no longer have a roommate. He has big plans for living on his own for the next few months that may or may not include Pheromone Swap. Everything is turned upside down in the best possible way when he meets the newest arrival to the GGB! Vatten is sweet, handsome, and a little fierce. The world may be in the process of evolving into a dumpster fire, but he’s totally smitten with his mate!

Will the newly met true-mates’ bond be strong enough to withstand storms, intruding relatives, multiple angry ghosts, and their own insecurities? They’d like to think so, but it’s going to take some time and effort!

Happy Dewey’s 24 Hour Readathon

See the source image

Happy Readathon Day, bookworms! Hope everyone has all their favorite books and snacks ready. Usually, by now I’ve posted a hopeful TBR, but this year I’ve bought a house, moved, and kept everything going while I did. I’ve planned so much that literally when I wrote my last novel I never even wrote a plot. I’m a plotter through and through, but besides some notes at the bottom of the document my upcoming holiday novel Catnip and Mistletoe (Book 10 of Love by Glitter Bomb) was entirely pantsed. For those of you who know me personally or follow the blog you know that’s not how I usually do things. I think maybe moving this time planned me out. To be totally honest, the last few months have felt like an emotional hangover with all the big changes happening so quickly.

I’m on a roll this year with reading, though. Last year I scrapped by with 200 books because of the pandemic. Before that I couldn’t even swing 100 a year. I think I hit 80ish in 2019. Which was still a lot, but friends were reading way more than I was. This year I kept that ‘updated’ reading habit. Stressed? Read. Shit happening I can’t control? Read. Too tired to do anything else but it isn’t time for bed? Read. Seriously, I think my brain just liked that part of lockdown. Though, to be honest, even through moving I saw as few people as possible and pretty much have gone back into my own semi-lockdown mode since finishing everything. I live in a pretty conservative area and don’t trust people to be smart with the pandemic. Sorry, not sorry. I’ve seen what people do here.

Anyway, that was a side tangent, what I meant to say, was despite reading 175 books so far this year I still have shelves of unread books and today that’s a good thing. I’ve planned a lot of my reads this year between r/bookclub over on Reddit (if you’re looking for an online bookclub that reads diversely check us out!) and buddy reads. So, I’m ready to go back to browsing my unread shelves and finding my next read that way. Some of the books were bought years ago and it’s like finding a surprise. Don’t worry. The books I read and don’t want to keep forever are gifted/donated/given to the library. They’re not sitting in a landfill or filling up my entire house until I’m just at a table with coffee and a laptop writing my next novel.

Not my pile of books. lol

So, that’s exactly what I plan to do in a few hours. I’m going to comb my shelves and find something totally unplanned to read. Usually, I have a blogging/check-in plan too, but not this time. Maybe I’ll check in throughout the day or maybe I’ll just come back tomorrow morning and do a wrap-up. But I have my pumpkin spice coffee and lots of options.

Happy reading, bookworms!

Dewey’s Afternoon Check-in (#2021ReverseReadathon)

Okay, so it’s been an interesting 4 hours. I took a short nap and we had a thunderstorm pass overhead. I think with these set backs I’ll likely not hit my 10 hour goal. I never really do unless I just choose a big book. lol I’m about to chat with a friend for a bit to clear my head and regain some energy. But first, I’ve read another 2 hours and 1 minute this time around. That brings me up to 7 hours and 48 minutes. That means I need about 2 hours and 12 minutes. So maybe, I’ll get there. If not I’m not too worried about it. Life has been stressful enough recently without beating myself up over something that’s supposed to be fun.

This time around I wrapped up Magic Bitter, Magic Sweet by Charlie N. Holmberg. I enjoyed this one, but not as much as the Paper Magician Series. It took me 4 hours and 5 minutes to get through this one.

Then I started H.G. Well’s The Time Machine and read for 58 minutes before my update alarm went off. I’m having mixed feelings about it. It was the same way with War of the Worlds. Still… I’m about halfway through. It’s dense for a little book and I figure it’ll take me another house to finish it up.

Dewey’s Lunch Time Check in (#2021ReverseReadathon)

I just finished a quick lunch and a little break from reading. I needed to come up for some air and move around so that I could have a tiny chance of hitting my goal of ten hours. With about 8 hours left I’m on track. I’ve read an additional 2 hours and 29 minutes since my last check in. Putting me at 5 Hours and 47 Minutes out of my ten hour goal. So, since I divided the day up into 4 hour chunks I just need to read 2 hours and 7ish minutes of each of those chunks. So, I should hit my goal unless I hit the wall. lol

I finished up I Wish You All the Best by Mason Deaver and I’m happy to say the last half of the book did redeem it.

2 Hours and 25 Minutes of reading time.

I’m still working on Magic Bitter, Magic Sweet by Charlie N. Holmberg. I’m enjoying it but the mystery is starting to drag a bit for my liking and with the most recent twist to the book I’m wondering if it’s to be solved at all.

Magic Bitter, Magic Sweet by [Charlie N. Holmberg]
3 Hours and 42 Minutes of reading time so far

Dewey’s Check-In (#2021ReverseReadathon)

Hey again! I’ve been up about 4 hours so far this morning and managed about 3 hours and 18 minutes across two books. Since my mental health would never allow my to forgo sleep to try to stay up for the whole readathon I usually aim for about 10 hours and I think I’m on track for that since I’m adding in the audio books this time.

Magic Bitter, Magic Sweet by [Charlie N. Holmberg]
2 Hours and 12 Minutes of reading time so far

First, Magic Bitter, Magic Sweet by Charlie N. Holmberg, I’m loving this book on audio. I listened to it during coffee and breakfast and while I moved around to loosen up my joints this morning. Up until a few years ago I wanted nothing to do with audiobooks. They brought back flashbacks of those tape my elementary school teachers used while we read along. I’d always read ahead and if they stopped the tape to ask me about something going on during the part the tape just read I’d always stumble over my words. The tape was just too slow to keep my attention. Then, I learned audiobooks have adjustable speeds now. I never listen at the normal speed and it’s allowed me to enjoy them a lot more. At the speed I’m currently reading at I have about 2.5 hours left of this one. With meals and stuff I figure I’ll finish it up before the day is over.

1 Hour 6 Minutes of reading time so far

The other book I’m reading is I Wish You All the Best by Mason Deaver. I’ve wanted to read this one since it first came onto my radar last year. I’m non-binary so any book with a non-binary main character gets tossed onto the TBR. There aren’t that many I come across. I was excited for this one, but I’m about 40% through it and I’m not sure what I think. I don’t want to say anything just yet. I should finish it by my noon check in and I’ll probably have more to say about it then.

Happy reading!

Good morning/afternoon Deweys!

I woke up about 45 minutes ago and started Magic Bitter, Magic Sweet by Charlie N. Holmberg on audio (great so far but I’ve loved 4 previous books by her). After I finished my first cup of coffee I went over to see if anyone had anything interesting reading-on on Goodreads.

I was able to get in after a few refreshes but still it’s so seldom that I see this. I think we’re overloading Goodread’s brain today. lol

I’m off for my second cup of coffee and to string enough brain cells together to sit down with my first paperback of the day! Happy reading!
