A busy week in the Ruins this time around, with some very exciting posts:
After being so good, so diligent, and so strong, I completely fell of the wagon this week when it comes to my book addiction. New titles on the review front that I just couldn't resist include:

My Review: Fair warning, if you have an eARC of this book, it probably does not include the last story, Black Dog. I’m lucky I had a published print copy...
