Rating: ⭐⭐⭐.5 “Failure is not an option. Failure is fatal.” I’ll admit, when books are longer than 400 pages, it turns me off a bit. But this one seemed to have so much packed into it according to the synopsis, so I took a chance on it! I’ll admit, it’s a heavy read and you…

A Summer’s Kill – Book Review
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ “It’s summer, and a cunning, demented killer is rising.” You know what, after reading the third book in this series, I’ve come to love Carolyn Ryder so much that I’ll be pretty sad when I’ve finished!

To Love A Liar – Book Review
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “A man in hiding. A marriage in pieces. A secret that won’t stay buried.” No one writes a thriller quite like Liv does. I thought that after I read Silent Waters last year, and I’m even more sure of it after reading her latest, To Love A Liar, which is out TODAY! I…
The Serial Killer Support Group – Book Review
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐.5 “Justice will be served…” I DID IT! I listened to my first ever audiobook 😱 I’d avoided them for so long because I never thought they were for me and I didn’t think I’d ever be able to concentrate on one like I would with a physical/eBook, but I take back everything I…
A Spring Kill – Book Review
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐.5 “It’s spring, and a new evil has awoken.” Another dark, intense and unnerving book from JK Ellem! I loved the first book in this series, A Winter’s Kill, which I reviewed a couple of months ago and I was so excited to dive straight into the next. A Spring Kill really takes this…

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “One husband, well done.” 🤯👏 ARGH, this book!! Perfection! I think it’s really hard for authors to write something truly unique these days, but oh my god, THIS was unique.
