Trigger warning for child neglect & abuse, sexual abuse, incest, grooming, insinuation of suicide, self-harm, cannibalism. Let's review.

Review: The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle
I finally got around to reading this book after it was recommended by a fellow bibliophile at my day job. We periodically share our recent reads & ratings & this book was mentioned but when I went to add it to my tbr, there it was already. Tehe. Funny how that happens so often, not... Continue Reading →
Review: The Perfect Marriage by Jeneva Rose
I'm not saying this book wasn't good, it was! I was absolutely engrossed in the story, turning page after page I could not put the book down once I got to reading. However, I guessed the plot very early on & I hate when that happens. Regardless, still a read I definitely recommend for the... Continue Reading →
Review: We Used to Live Here by Marcus Kliewer
I'm so glad this book is being tv adapted, it's just one of those stories that will translate so well to tv. However, the main actress choice is probably going to stop me personally from watching it quiet honestly. She's simply not my cup of tea. This is a book review though that's neither here...

Review: The Watchers / Stay in the Light by A.M. Shine
The film adaptation of this book was 100% what spurred me to finally get around to reading it now. At this point, having been on my TBR a little over 2 years I wasn't exactly "on the look out" for it. If there is a book, I want to read it before watching any movie... Continue Reading →

Anyway, because this book was on my tbr for so many... Continue Reading →

Review: Hotel Magnifique by Emily J. Taylor
I added this book to my tbr because the cover is aesthetically pleasing, as I've mentioned in previous reviews I'm an avid & proud cover judger, many a great books have ended up on my bookshelves because of their pretty covers. I loved reading this book & would love to see it translated to screen.... Continue Reading →
Review: Girls of Paper and Fire series by Natasha Ngan
Well, I'm close to a full year late to this review, I finished this series at a time where I was already way behind on reviews, extra busy at the "9-5" & in the beginning stage of a reading slump. It's been a while but let's review. Girls of Paper and Fire: a series by... Continue Reading →

The Downloaded by Robert J. Sawyer (Audiobook) This is a sci-fi dystopian mystery thriller, the main male character is voiced by actor Brendan Fraser.
