William by Mason Coile (Review)





 Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for a chance to read this.


I first heard about William from a friend on Facebook, and saw the cover, and read the description, and knew I had to read it. This book was right up my alley, and it was a wonderful thrill ride. This tech horror/thriller. I didn't want to put this down. It really makes you wonder, do we really control our machines, or do they have more power over us than we think? Pick this one up, and get locked in with William if you dare.

Incidents Around The House by Josh Malerman (Review)






 Thank you to Netgalley, and the publisher for a copy to read, and review. 


This was incredible. I love how it was set in the mind of a child, and It was absolutely terrifying. I myself currently don't have any human children, but I love stories with creepy kids. Although Bela wasn't exactly creepy, what was happening was just that. The whole time I felt unsafe myself from the entity in this book. This will leave you screaming, and wanting to run, but also wanting more. As a horror fan, this was right up my ally. This one will leave you wanting to hide under the covers, and sleep with the light on.

The Patient by Teri Terry (Review)

 




Thank you to Netgalley, and the publisher for a chance to review this.


This was an incredible fast paced thriller. It kept me guessing. So many times I thought I'd figured it out only to find out I was wrong. My own heart was pounding for Saphy. 


The cover itself really draws potential readers. The bright yellow background with the knitted pink heart I think is great. I enjoyed the craftiness of the twists, I didn't want to put my Kindle down. (if you're reading a physical copy, you wont want to put it down either.) It did make me think what would happen patients, and how much are they really connected to the organ's original owners? Sometimes, I think it can be more than we think. If you're looking for a quick fast paced thriller than I think this will be the book for you.

Butter by Asako Yuzuki (review)

 




Thank you to Netgalley, and the publisher for a review copy. 

I'm torn on how to review this. I half liked it, half didn't. I love the idea of food, and murder. This I think did a good job at that. I do think it was a little too long. Some scenes dragged out for me, and I had to set it down. To me it wasn't as thrilling as I'd have hoped either, but that's my preference. I do like that it was inspired by a true crime though, and I do love true crime. I'll have to look into the actual case itself.

Rabbit Hole by Kate Brody (Review)








Thank you to Netgalley, and the publisher for a chance to review this. 


I was really excited for this book. The whole idea is amazing. The execution for me wasn't the best. I guess I expected more. It had some really wonderful parts, then other parts were extremely slow, and I struggled to get through. If you don't like animal deaths, then pass on this book. There is a scene near the end that deals with it. It was a tough scene to read, and I read a lot of extreme horror. As a debut, I think this worked well, and look forward to what Kate Brody comes up with next.

The Child at my Door by Sam Vickery (Review)





Thank you Netgalley for a copy to read, and review


This was a fast paced thriller from start to finish. As soon as you think you've solved it, another twist is added into the mix. This book will make you question a lot of things. Be careful of who you know, and who you trust. You'll be watching your back after reading this one.

The Eyes Are The Best Part by Monkia Kim (Review)





 Thank you to Netgalley for a copy to read, and review. 


I read the title, and saw the cover, and knew I had to read this. Then I read the synopsis, and was even more intrigued. This story was great. It was fun, and wild, and absolutely delicious. The drama, the tension, the way it was crafted was wonderful. I loved the gory bits too. Be sure to read this on your summer cookouts. Depending on how you are about eyes, this may, or may not be the book for you. it may induce some Ommetaphobia. The descriptions are absolutely juicy. Enjoy
