    Nightmare on Nightmare Street by R.L. Stine

    4 Stars Reading his books never fails to give me all the warm, fuzzy feelings even though I should be scared. I love how so many of his original Goosebumps stories were woven into this and the nods to some adult horror movies. I love his short chapters, as always,…

  • Her Last Breath by Taylor Adams

    Her Last Breath by Taylor Adams

    4 Stars While this wasn’t my favorite book by this author it still packed an absolute punch with its twists and descriptions. Holy moly I was holding my breath countless times in anticipation and then my jaw was on the floor. Taylor Adams has such a way with words to…

  • I Did It For You by Amy Engel

    I Did It For You by Amy Engel

    5 Stars This author has very quickly became one of my favorite thriller authors. Her writing is so beautiful and easy to read and I love that Kansas is used as her locations (my home state)! The familial aspects of this book broke my heart and added so much along…

  • How To Kill A Guy in Ten Dates by Shailee Thompson

    How To Kill A Guy in Ten Dates by Shailee Thompson

    5 Stars This is a book I’m going to be screaming and obsessing about for a very long time, it was absolutely perfect. I figured I would enjoy it as it’s a slasher romcom but I wasn’t expecting to love it this much. I loved all of the character’s names…

    This Book Made Me Think of You by Libby Page

    5 Stars Going into this book I wasn’t expecting to bawl my eyes out so much or to be adding this books to my favorites of all time list. The writing style was amazing and I was hooked from the very beginning, I immediately fell in love with Matilda’s character.…

  • It’s Not Her by Mary Kubica

    It’s Not Her by Mary Kubica

    3 Stars Sigh, I didn’t like this. Honestly from the very beginning it didn’t grip my attention like her books typically do. It might have been because I didn’t care for any of the characters or the plot, maybe both. It was nice to read about what was happening before…

  • Greedy by Callie Kazumi

    Greedy by Callie Kazumi

    3 Stars Any books involving cannibalism is of course going to intrigue me and this one was pretty good. I loved the Japanese lore that was tied into it, it was really fascinating to read about. I would have given this a higher rating if it had more gore and…

  • The Swamps by Seraphina Nova Glass

    The Swamps by Seraphina Nova Glass

    5 Stars I swear I would read this author’s grocery list given the chance, everything she writes is so dang good. I love any book that’s based in Louisiana and coupled with her fantastic writing style I had a blast reading this. It read insanely fast, I flew through in…

    The Unwritten Rules of Magic by Harper Ross

    4 Stars Wow, I was not expecting this book to be as deep as it was or to hit me in my feels but I really, really enjoyed this. While I definitely didn’t always love the characters, especially Emerson and her mom, I can appreciate why the characters were written…

  • All the Little Houses by May Cobb

    All the Little Houses by May Cobb

    2 Stars Holy moly this was so bad. I have thoroughly enjoyed almost every book I’ve read by this author but this book actually gave me a headache. First of all there were so many characters that I had a hard time keeping track of everyone. And while I expected…
