I started Urban Fantasy Investigations in November 2010 to share my love of books with the world, 9 years later I am ready to let it go. I have enjoyed every single moment over the years, but I am ready to put down my keyboard and read to just read again. I want to thank each and every reader for taking the time over the years to visit UFI. I have enjoyed reading your comments and emails and without you UFI would have never made it this long. Thank you to all the authors and publicists that have taken the time to chat with me over the years and share thousands of books and giveaways wit ..read more

I really hate to give up on books so it isn't often that I mark a book as Did Not Finish (aka DNF). I only marked 2 books as DNF in 2019 and here is why. I didn't even get through two chapters of REIGN OF DRAGONS. I just couldn't get into the story or the main character enough to continue reading.
