Donn’s Hill by Caryn Larrinaga

Donn’s Hill by Caryn Larrinaga

Donn’s Hill is a horror/mystery/thriller that involves the paranormal. As such, I knew I had to give it a shot. I wasn’t disappointed. Donn’s Hill is Caryn Larrinaga’s debut novel. As such, it does suffer a bit from “first book syndrome” but in all honesty, it doesn’t really detract from the story. This one needs […]

Stillwell by Michael Phillip Cash

Stillwell by Michael Phillip Cash

I have to say, I enjoyed this book by Michael Phillip Cash much better than the other one I read. I’m a sucker for a good ghost story, and this one is good. This ghost story has an interesting twist to it. It isn’t often that you see something like this. Sure, you see happy […]

A Grimm Curse by Janna Jennings

A Grimm Curse by Janna Jennings

Ok, I’m all for reimagined fairy tales. After all, just look at the reviews I’ve done for three of the Disney Twisted Tales books. I love a good reimagined fairy tale. Please note I said a good reimagined fairy tale. A Grimm Curse is not a good reimagined fairy tale. As a prequel, I honestly […]

Blueblood by Matthew Iden

Blueblood by Matthew Iden

This book spent far too long on my Netgalley TBR pile. I’m not even joking. I added it to the TBR pile back in 2015 – almost 4 years ago. I honestly shouldn’t have waited so long to read this book. Blueblood is the second book in the Marty Singer series. The good thing is […]

Verity by Colleen Hoover

Verity by Colleen Hoover

I’m not a big fan of Colleen Hoover. Most of her books are just not my style. I’m not into the contemporary, YA/New Adult romance thing. But this book, self-published because it was such a departure from her normal books, was right up my alley. I’d seen a review on booktube for this book and […]

Perfect Prophet by Diane M. Johnson

Perfect Prophet by Diane M. Johnson

What do you do when you don’t believe in God but you find yourself possessed of an ability that can only be a gift from God? What happens when your father is also a religious zealot who literally wrote prophecies about you – prophecies that have a Satanic cult after you? That’s what Alec Lowell […]

Camino Island by John Grisham

Camino Island by John Grisham

While I kind of panned the last John Grisham novel I’d read, it was more because while it involved law and lawyers, it wasn’t what I was expecting. This novel was a departure from what I recall John Grisham doing previously, but this novel worked. It really did work. The character development wasn’t completely there, […]

The Rooster Bar by John Grisham

The Rooster Bar by John Grisham

I’ll be honest, I haven’t read a John Grisham novel in years. I was really into his novels when I was in high school, but to be honest, after high school I kind of lost interest. I think the last time I’d read one of his novels was back in the early 2000s when I […]
