BOOK REVIEW – The Two Hearts of Eliza Bloom by Beth Miller
I have to be completely honest ... I'm really not sure about this one!! I don't think I've ever been so unsure about how I feel about a book. I didn't dislike it, but I didn't love it. I found parts of it to be rather distasteful and I know for sure that many people... Continue Reading →

BLOG BLITZ REVIEW – Paper Dolls by Emma Pullar
I have to admit that a few chapters in, I was ready to put this one aside. It's extremely gory, graphic and gruesome and spares no punches! But I just couldn't let it go. I didn't guess who the killer was until there was just 3% of the book left!!! Thinking back, the clues are... Continue Reading →

BLOG BLITZ REVIEW – Death’s Dark Veil by Patricia Dixon
I love these books where the house itself is so dark and chilling that it's actually a fully-fledged character itself. Here, the house seems to brood and shift at will, taking on the moods of its inhabitants. It's very creepy and adds to the undercurrent of dread that runs through the entire book. Headstrong, independent... Continue Reading →
