  • You Should Have Been Nicer to My Mom by Vincent Tirado

    3 Stars Maybe I went into this book with too high of expectations after loving their adult debut but I struggled through this one. I get the horror was meant to be the family aspects but it got so old after awhile, I just wanted something crazy and horrifying to happen. There were parts that…

  • The Fox and the Devil by Kiersten White

    2 Stars I had hoped to enjoy this as much as I did Lucy Undying and man was I disappointed. I went into this with certain expectations and all I got was a wandering plot and a book that felt endless. Most of the story felt completely pointless to me and I honestly didn’t care…

  • Is This A Cry for Help? by Emily Austin

    3 Stars While I didn’t really vibe with the author’s writing style I did appreciate how much I learned from it especially about libraries. I loved the main character so much and honestly wanted to give her a hug. There were parts of the story that I enjoyed more than others but overall it wasn’t…

  • Last One Out by Steph Nelson

    Wow, this was intense and immediately gripped me from the beginning. It was so fast-paced I flew through and couldn’t take my eyes off the pages. I loved all of the characters and the plot twists were great. This dealt with some pretty heavy topics but it was almost done in a nice way if…

    Hide by Kiersten White

    3 Stars I had higher than high hopes for this book. I have immensely enjoyed Kiersten White’s writing before and I’m a sucker for a horror novel, especially one involving an amusement park. This book unfortunately fell a little flat for me and didn’t give me the thrills and chills I was hoping for. “Come…

  • My Summer Darlings by May Cobb

    5 Stars! Oh my this woman can write some twisted, raunchy, preposterous (but in the best way) books! Jen Hansen has just moved back to her childhood town with her son Kasey and is looking forward to catching up with her two best friends, Kittie and Cynthia, whom she’s known since she was a child…

  • The Girl From Widow Hills by Megan Miranda Review

    4 STARS This book instantly hooked me from the beginning, the plot of this book was so intriguing and interesting. One thing I have noticed with thrillers is there tends to be a popular trend of similar plot points but I honestly have never read anything like this book. The gist of the story is…

  • The Wife Upstairs by Rachel Hawkins Review

    4 STARS Thank you so much to St. Martins Press and NetGalley for the complimentary copy of this book in exchange for my honest review! I loved Rachel Hawkin’s Young Adult books and her first adult book was even better. The book being told by different perspectives really enhanced the spookiness and craziness for me.…

  • Review of Happy & You Know It by Laura Hankin

    3 STARS Thank you so much to Berkley Publishing Group for the complimentary copy of this book for my honest review! This book was very eye opening in terms of what we see as “poshmoms” and “instamommies”. The author did a fantastic job with each individualized character and what each of their struggles were. I…

    4 STARS Thank you so much to St. Martins Press for the free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. I absolutely loved Katherine Center’s first book How to Walk Away and I was so excited when she came out with this one (and I love how much the covers almost match!).…
