I read a lot of really great books this month! There was a clear winner though for best book – Nicholas Ponticello’s The Secret Order of the Scepter & Gavel! As I mentioned in the full review, I do not typically read science fiction, but the author reached out asking if I would consider his book. I was surprised at how engrossed I was with this story! It was a one-sitting read for me and I’ve been telling everyone I know they need to read it!
