The nitty-gritty: Top notch horror elements and heavy handed social commentary combine with mixed results in this slow but entertaining story. There’s a lot to love in The Burn Line, the latest novel by horror podcaster Jonanthan Sims, but I also found this to be a frustrating read for a couple of reasons. The London […]
The nitty-gritty: An outrageous, funny and feel-good story, Kiss Slay Replay explores relatable themes in a fresh, unexpected horror setting. “My story might not be a love story. But it isn’t a horror story, either. My story is mine, and it can be whatever I make it.” I can always count on Rachel Harrison for […]
Welcome to Future Fiction, my reimagining of the Waiting on Wednesday meme! There are so many amazing new books coming out, that I can no longer pick just one. My goal with Future Fiction is to share at least three new books each week, a combination of recent cover reveals and books that I’ve recently […]
September is a HUGE month for new SFF book releases, is anyone surprised? (but not as big as October, just wait..) September is also the month of the female writer. I just realized that fifteen out of seventeen of these books are by women authors. My most anticipated book of the year comes out this […]
It’s a wrap on Summer of Horror 2026! I had a lot of fun, and it was even more fun having so many bloggers participate this year. Thank you thank you to everyone! This summer I read and reviewed thirteen horror books, which I’m very happy about. Below are those books and links to my […]
Welcome to Buffy’s Corner, where I take a look at what’s coming up this week on the blog! I’m linking up with The Sunday Post over at Kimberly’s blog, The Caffeinated Reviewer. Our weather is finally cooling off a bit, and this coming week the high for each day starts with a “7” 🙂 So […]

Welcome to Over-Booked, where I share my latest and greatest book acquisitions! There is a new blog hosting Stacking the Shelves, so do check out Reading Reality for more information! Another month gone, another book haul! This month’s haul is smaller than last month’s, thankfully. And while I didn’t avoid Netgalley altogether, I was very […]
The nitty-gritty: Small Town Slasher delivers some killer action, but the character development falls short and the story overall lacks any heart or emotion. Note: This is a review of the novella-length version of the book. Stephanie Rose is the owner of Death By TBR Books, a horror bookshop, and she’s also a writer and […]
The nitty-gritty: Weird, complex and bloody, The Calamities brings big mob energy to a supernatural tale about demons and those that worship them. Chuck Wendig never fails to deliver epic, emotionally charged stories, and The Calamities is no exception. This is a big, sprawling, multi-character story that I’m calling “Game of Thrones meets The Dark […]
