WHAT WE KNEW by Barbara Stewart – Review
Posted August 24, 2015 by Tammy in 2 stars, Reviews / 13 Comments

The nitty-gritty: An atmospheric tale that has so much potential, but with too many confusing story elements, it just didn’t work for me. Rarely do I write scathing book reviews, it’s just not in my nature to completely tear down someone’s work. But in this case, I can’t help but rant about What We Knew. […]

ZEROES by Chuck Wendig – Review

ZEROES by Chuck Wendig – Review
Posted August 17, 2015 by Tammy in 3 1/2 stars, Reviews / 16 Comments

The nitty-gritty: An action-packed techno-thriller—a bit of a departure for Wendig—that still manages to entertain, despite some over-the-top story elements. If there’s one thing you can count on from Chuck Wendig, it’s that he’s not afraid to try out new genres. I didn’t know much about Zer0es going into it, and I wasn’t sure what […]
