The Cove by Claire Rose

 

 

 

  I loved the creepy atmosphere throughout this book, the characters, and the setting. There were many twists and the story was engaging, suspenseful and very disturbing. It was fun to try to figure out what was going on. A great read that was impossible to put down.

Five by Ilona Bannister

 

 

 

 

  I loved this suspenseful and engaging read! The author excelled at delving into the minds of the five main characters along with developing their backstories. I really enjoyed getting to know each of them throughout the book. Very well done.

Rosie: Twisted Tales of Unfamiliar Faces by Russell Archey

 


 

 

 

 

 

 Since I was unfamiliar with the source material, I had no idea what to expect which was nice. This was a very visceral, disturbing, and gory read which I loved. It reminded me of short stories by Stephen King because it featured a rag-tag group of survivors pitted against some type of evil creatures and had excellent character development. I really enjoyed it!


These Familiar Walls by CJ Dotson

 


 

 

  This book was a wild ride! There were so many unexpected twists which made me see everything in a new light. Very creepy atmosphere throughout and well written. This book was impossible to put down. I can't wait to read more books by this author.
