Idle Hands is undoubtedly going to take the Woman’s Literature genre by storm. Not only is the cover a subtle mix of color and spook (the nails on that shadowed hand certainly provide a curiosity that belays the cheerful colors!) but there is certainly enough story contained in the pages to make anyone sit upContinue reading “Review: “Idle Hands” by Cassondra Windwalker”
