Alex Cameron's newest and most musically expansive LP, the glistening Miami Memory, takes a surprising turn. Cameron's flair for narrative and character are still on full display; yet Miami Memory's most frequent narrator is, for the first time, Cameron himself - singing with stunning candor of his three-year relationship with visual artist and actor Jemima Kirke. "When you listen to these songs, and you're waiting for the twist, or the joke, or any kind of discomfort, I can assure you none of those things were there when I wrote them," says Cameron. "These are true stories, of actual events. Specific but never esoteric. And graphic but never offensive. Miami Memory is the story of a couple balancing sex positivity with contemporary family values... It's my gift to Jemima, a symbol to hoist on the totem of love." Though remnants of his synth-driven earlier work sneak in to unsettle the tone, the bulk of Miami Memory, produced by Jonathan Rado (Weyes Blood, Father John Misty) and recorded and mixed by Marta Salogni (Björk, Kelela), revels in the emotional overdrive of classic dad rock, it's warm, anthemic songs driven by bass, guitar, sax, and layers of Vegas wedding chapel-ish organ. Cameron's dad rock funhouse of an album ultimately twists and subverts the genre: it recalls classics the white male ego has historically visited for it's regular adrenaline injection, and morphs them into a singular "stepdad" rock that largely turns it's lens away from the dads, celebrating the demise of old norms of gender and power. In his depiction of his relationship with Kirke, Cameron reveals a striking honesty about love and sex in a time where a palpable fleetingness hangs over everything from relationships to human life on this planet - but also where constricting mores have deteriorated enough to let "family life," in all it's morphing forms, exist outside of social obligation. With arresting straightforwardness, Cameron now sings as himself, paying tribute to sex positivity, female empowerment, family and responsibility, and, to his love, Jemima.

ALL Fantasy Characters In One BOOK!
Format: Paperback
4.5 stars
Faes, vampires, mages, shifters and wolves ALL in one book, yes please!!
Oh my gosh, this book kept me reading and wanting more. The tension between the FMC - Addi and the MMCs - Raiden, Cassian, Kryll and Brody was high, I didn't know if it would be Addi to break or one of the four men.
The Kingdom of Floodborn is in ruins. The origins, Fae, Humans, Shifters, Mages, Wolves and Vampires come to Heir Academy to see if they have the will, strength and capability to become the next savior for the kingdom.
This is the first book I've read from K.C. Kean and I'm left feeling, WTF!! It was a great read and I couldn't get enough.
I will be diving into the second book of this series, I can't wrap what I just finished, I need to know more!

A phenomenal read
Format: Kindle
"The Kingdom of Ruin" by K.C. Kean is a fantasy novel that delves into a world of betrayal, downfall, and the quest for power and restoration. The story revolves around a once prosperous Kingdom that has fallen into ruin due to poisonous schemes and betrayal, leading to a time of lawlessness and disarray.
The narrative unfolds sixteen years after the fall of the Kingdom, with The Council determined to find an heir who can unite the land and restore its former glory. This sets the stage for the Heir Academy, a challenging trial designed to identify the Kingdom's savior among the diverse species vying for the throne.
The protagonist of the story is driven by a fierce determination to claim the crown and restore the Kingdom to its rightful state. Their ambition and resolve to overcome any obstacle or adversary in their path add a layer of intrigue and suspense to the plot.
The themes of power, ambition, and redemption seem central to the storyline, promising a gripping and immersive read for fans of fantasy fiction. The concept of different species converging to compete for the crown adds an element of competition and complexity to the narrative, setting the stage for political intrigue and strategic maneuvering.
Overall, "The Kingdom of Ruin" appears to offer a compelling blend of fantasy, betrayal, and the quest for power, making it a promising read for those who enjoy immersive and engaging fantasy worlds.

Amazing!
Format: Kindle
Yeah, this book is definitely the start of something special. I'm really pumped for this new world that K.C. Kean has created. The plot is really intriguing and so are the characters. I became so immersed in this world filled with vampires, mages, fae, shifters, and wolves.
The female main character, Addi, is a contender in an academy filled with different supernaturals competing to become the new heir of a kingdom that has fallen apart. She deals with so much push back from most because of who she is and is constantly on the defense. She is such a badass and I loved every one of her mantras to herself.
As far as the romance, it's steamy, it's hot, it's a slow burn, yet it's not. Yep, that's how I'm describing it. These men are dark, humorous, and addictive. They definitely have an air of mystery surrounding them and I just want to know more!
I saw part of that cliffhanger coming but it still slapped me in the face. 😆 I live for amazing cliffhangers though and we don't have to wait long until book two because it releases June 28th!!!

the gasp I guspped 😱
Format: Kindle
This book was so good. I love the world that has been created so far in this story.
Addi is a boss and the fact that she is having to hide who she really is from everyone at the academy yet also being able to stand her ground and not be bullied into anything just shows how strong she really is. She doesn’t take anything lying down and even if it makes the target bigger on her she sticks to what she believes is right. Raiden, Brody, Cassian and Kryll all seem to have a pull towards Addi but with them all competing against each other in the hopes to become the next heir they try every way they can think to get her out of their heads and out of their way.
I love the push and pull between Addi and the guys. They have this electric chemistry that makes them want to hate each other but fine that they don’t want to pull away from each other.
I really can’t stand the girls who are always trying to start stuff with Addi just because the guys show interest and they feel like they have a right to.That also goes for Cassians dad and the dean and her elitist self 🙄
But that ending had me GASPING 😱 like I knew he was a crap person but I didn’t expect that at all. I need the next book ASAP
5/5⭐️’s
2.5/5🌶️’s

It's okay... Needs something
Format: Kindle
This author has potential but her books tend to follow the same formula on plot that I usually DNF. Plot - Girl has goal, boys determined to chase her off (usually for dumb reason), mean girls, and before book 1 is done, guys enamoured with FMC cuz she shiny and pretty. It gets boring fast. This one is an improvement, I completed it and for the most part, I liked it.
However, I hate when the FMC tells herself to stay focused, thinks logical, looks like she will be a strong FMC, and in the next chapter succumbing to the MMCs due to lust. Why? Especially, when there hasn't been much conversation between them to justify that level of attraction or connection. Don't get me wrong, I love spice, just make it make sense, its giving fast burn and if that's the case, write 1 book.
Second issue, I love bully romances, I want to hate the MMCs, than I want the author to some how make me love them. Chefs kiss 😘 So, I was draw to this book bc of that theme...Not getting it here. Technically, they are sort of mean but this ain't it. One is mean but for a stupid reason... he doesn't need to be distracted by his attraction 🙄, he just looks weak to not be able to control that, just saying. The other two are just followers and don't really care enough about her to bully her. Last one, doesn't bully her, he's just trying to get in her pants.
Lastly, we are to believe MMcs are baddies... cruel, ruthless, ambitious, and dangerous... please show me that in the next book cuz saw none of that in this one. That goes for the FMC, the men shouldn't be able to get over her all the dang time, definitely not for someone who has been training their whole life to take back their crown!
Third issue, the academy concept is falling flat for me. That needs some world building, development... Something! Its just reading filler space to me. The book description reads like this school is designed to weed out the weak by difficult competitive challenges so your left with one strong leader who will take the throne. Nah... more like charm school.
All in all, it follows the same formula as her other "academy" books but slightly better... Not sure if that's true, or maybe I was just determined to finish one of her books for once.
