DARK ROOM ETIQUETTE by Robin Roe – Review
Posted October 15, 2022 by Tammy in 4 stars, Reviews / 19 Comments

The nitty-gritty: A psychological thriller that explores trauma and recovery, Dark Room Etiquette is an edge-of-your-seat read that delivers both thrills and emotion. “The bad things are going to change you no matter what, and they can make you angry and bitter—or they can make you better.” I’m not the biggest fan of YA fiction, […]

LUTE by Jennifer Thorne – Review
Posted October 11, 2022 by Tammy in 3 1/2 stars, Reviews / 23 Comments

The nitty-gritty: Slow burn suspense, mystery and an atmospheric setting make Lute a thoroughly compelling read, despite uneven and puzzling world building elements. This is one of those books that completely sucked me in, but after I had some time to think about it later, I started to have a lot of questions. Like many […]

STATION ETERNITY by Mur Lafferty – Review
Posted October 10, 2022 by Tammy in 4 stars, Reviews / 27 Comments

The nitty-gritty: Crazy connections, cool aliens and plenty of mystery make this series starter a fun but convoluted romp through space. “There are many, many things at play. You will never understand every single one.” That quote pretty much sums up this book. I’m not sure I’ve ever used the phrase “cuckoo bananas” in a […]

THINGS HAVE GOTTEN WORSE SINCE WE LAST SPOKE by Eric LaRocca – Review
Posted September 19, 2022 by Tammy in 4 1/2 stars, Reviews / 16 Comments

The nitty-gritty: At times uncomfortable and disturbing, Eric LaRocca’s stories explore the dangerous side of human relationships. Eric LaRocca is quickly becoming my go-to horror author when I’m looking for well-written, edgy horror, horror that isn’t like anything else out there. I believe this is my third book of theirs I’ve read, and in fact […]

A DOWRY OF BLOOD by S.T. Gibson – Review
Posted September 15, 2022 by Tammy in 4 1/2 stars, Reviews / 32 Comments

The nitty-gritty: A lush, bloody, sweeping saga of an unusual relationship that spans centuries. “Love makes monsters of us, Constanta, and not everyone is cut out for monstrosity.” I’ve been eyeing A Dowry of Blood ever since the self-published edition made a splash on social media, but it went out of print before I could […]

GALLOWS HILL by Darcy Coates – Review
Posted September 6, 2022 by Tammy in 4 1/2 stars, Reviews / 23 Comments

The nitty-gritty: Creepy and unsettling, thrilling and terrifying, Gallows Hill is the perfect story to read with the lights off—if you dare. “”It might be easier to go over everything in three parts,’ Kant said. ‘Before the bells. After the bells. And once they’re in the house.’” I’m so glad I’ve finally read my first […]
