This was a fun, entertaining read full of Southern charm and a bit of vampire hunting. The four generations of Evans women were all great characters and I enjoyed getting to know each of them. I was hooked early in the book and couldn’t wait to see how things would work out in the end. […]

This was good! When I saw comparisons to The Bird Box, I was a bit worried since I was not a big fan of that book but this one worked well for me. I couldn’t imagine what it would have been like to live in the world these characters must navigate. I didn’t want to stop […]

I thought that this book was incredibly well done! I can be a bit of a mood reader and decided to pick this one up when I was in the mood for a bit of horror. I was also hoping for something a little different, and I think this book fits that description. I know […]

This was great! This book may have September in the title but I felt like this was the perfect October read. Margaret and Hal have bought their dream home, but there is one little problem…the house is haunted. I loved how unique this story was! I found this story almost impossible to set aside and […]

I loved this book! I am so glad that I finally got around to reading this book. I have heard that it was one of King’s best books so I was excited to dive into this one. I did watch the movie that was made years ago so I did have some knowledge regarding what […]

This was interesting! I felt like I had missed something when I initially finished this audiobook so I went back to the beginning and listened to it a second time. I am confident that this was probably more of an issue with me than with the book. I enjoyed getting to know this young boy […]
