The September House

The September House

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 enjoyed this book! This was my first experience with this author so I wasn’t quite sure what to think when I picked up this book but it turned out to be a great experience. This story is told in two timelines. We meet Rowan in the present day first and I have to admit […]

I had a great time with this book! I really enjoyed the first book in this series so I was eager to give this second book a try and I am pleased to report that I was not disappointed. Grimsby finally has the job of Auditor that he has always wanted but things are not […]

This was great! I love that the book took a turn that I didn’t see coming which changed everything. Vesper grew up in a cult but has left to be on her own. Her life is less than glamorous and she doesn’t have any strong connections. Most people at the restaurant she works at think […]

This was okay. I didn’t fall in love with the story but I also didn’t hate it. The premise was promising and there is a lot to like about the book but I didn’t feel any kind of chemistry between Cassie and Frederick. I really need to feel that chemistry when I pick up a […]

My feelings on this book are rather mixed. I needed some time to process this one after finishing it. I wasn’t exactly sure what I really thought about the book as a whole. On one hand, I was really curious to learn what really happened that night that Sloan and Cherry were the only survivors […]

This was such a well-done novel! I am the first to admit that I knew next to nothing about the historical figure of Jezebel so I was very interested in picking up this historical fiction story. Sure, I have heard the name thrown around in a derogatory manner during my lifetime but I knew nothing […]

I enjoyed this book quite a lot. Val remembers nothing about her life before she turned 8 years old but after her father’s death, she learns that a lot of things happened in the years that she can no longer recall. She was part of a show called Mister Magic that everyone seems to remember […]

I had a great time with this book! I really enjoyed this author’s debut so I was very excited to give her sophomore novel a try. It didn’t take long before I was hooked by this story. I really liked both Lauren and Asa and thought that they had amazing chemistry together. I found this […]
