The Re-Do List by Denise Williams

The Re-Do List by Denise Williams

I really liked this romance by Denise Williams. The only reason why I didn’t give it 5 stars was honestly I think that there were some tiny plot holes left open with some of the friend group, and also with Willow’s brother, but I imagine this may get followed up on in a subsequent book since this is the second book starring some of these characters. The first book in what I guess isn’t being called a series is called Just Our Luck so if […]

Salome by Leslie Baird

Please note that I received this book via NetGalley. This did not affect my rating or review. DID NOT FINISH AT 20 PERCENT. This was put out there as a Gothic retelling of Salome (If you have read the King James Bible, Salome is Herodias’s daughter and she danced before Herod at his birthday celebration. He was so happy with her dancing he told her that she could ask for anything in return. She speaks to her mother and then asks for the head of […]

Make Me Better by Sarah Gailey

Make Me Better by Sarah Gailey

Please note that I received this book via NetGalley. This did not affect my rating or review. DID NOT FINISH 12 PERCENT. This was too slow. I don’t even know what to say. The only Sarah Gailey book I have liked and managed to finish was Just Like Home. And that was slow as anything too. I have tried multiple times since last year to finish The Echo Wife and now this was just too much too. I just wish that the plot had moved a lot faster […]

Hunger by Choi Jin-young

Please note that I received this via NetGalley. This did not affect my rating or review. DID NOT FINISH AT 20 percent. I tried to get into this and just gave up. I think it’s just because the story itself which sounded interesting (your soulmate dies [Gu], you eat them [Dam]) just ended up not really being what I was being sold which said this was a horror novel. And the portion I finished didn’t read as horror. If anything it just read as sad. […]

The Dead Room by Catriona McPherson

  Please note that I received this book via NetGalley. This did not affect my rating or review. Not too much to say here except I almost DNFed this one like 4 times. Nothing happens for a good portion of this book until the 70 percent mark. And even then it had me going what is going on every five seconds while I read. I think that McPherson should have gotten the plot moving much faster than she did. The character of Lindsay just didn’t […]

Dark is When the Devil Comes by Daisy Pearce

Dark is When the Devil Comes by Daisy Pearce

Please note that I received this via NetGalley. This did not affect my rating or review. Honestly this is my own fault. The last book I read, Something in the Walls had promise, but the total execution of the book was off to me and the character development. Same issue here. Dark is When the Devil Comes follows too sisters, Cathy and Hazel. Hazel goes missing. Plot, some horror stuff, some confusing stuff and then the ending. Honestly I just didn’t follow this book, similar to […]
