Today is my stop on the TBR & Beyond Tours blog tour for The Wicked Unseen by Gigi Griffis, and I’m bringing you a review of the book. I’d actually already requested & been approved for this book through NetGalley prior to joining the tour, but hadn’t gotten around to reading it yet. I wish I’d read it sooner. If you have religious trauma, this may not be the book for you. If you are a believer, this book may tick you off or it could cause you to take a long look in the mirror. This book is a work of fiction, but it rings of some horrible truths – truths I’ve experienced in my own life. There are things that happen in this book that sound fantastical, like they couldn’t be real. But there are versions of these things that are, in fact, real. In fact, the author […]

We’ll Never Tell by Wend..

Today we have a review for We’ll Never Tell by Wendy Heard. This post is part of the blog tour organized by TBR & Beyond Tours. Thank you for allowing me to take part in this tour! When I read the description/synopsis of this book, I knew I had to do a review of it. It just sounded like it was going to be so good! I wasn’t wrong. First, I love that main characters have a YouTube channel that is basically urban exploration with a twist – they break into various places that are abandoned, condemned, or just closed up at the moment for a behind-the-scenes look. I’m a fan of channels like that on YouTube myself, so that was cool. Another thing I was in love with was the constant twists and turns. Just when I thought I’d figured out who might have attacked Jacob, I was wrong […]

Kill Joy by Holly Jackson

I’m back with my third review of a Holly Jackson book. This time it’s for Kill Joy, the prequel novella to the A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder trilogy. If you haven’t figured it out by now, I’m a big fan of Holly Jackson’s books. So suffice it to say, yes, I liked this one a lot. So let’s get into the review. Kill Joy – Characters There are several characters in Kill Joy – seven characters that we’ll be dealing with for the majority of the story. Pip Pip is our main character. She’s one of those super serious, super studious girls that if you ask her what her idea of fun is, she’ll tell you doing her homework or planning out a project. She’s that annoying girl who has to be right all the time, but yet you still manage to like her. I like Pip – she’s […]
