Serial Killers: 101 Questions by Joni Johnston is one of the most informative true crime books I’ve read. It answered so many of the psychological questions I’ve had over the years and offers a fascinating look into the minds of serial killers. Rather than sensationalizing these crimes, Dr. Johnsto

I knew Graveyard Shift by M. L. Rio was a horror novella, but I honestly had no idea what I was getting into—and that made the experience even better. The story is told through multiple points of view, which works perfectly here. Each character’s perspective adds another piece to the mystery, an

I really enjoyed this story, but I couldn’t help feeling like it was rushed. There was so much more potential for Evie and Luke’s relationship, and I would have loved to see more of their journey unfold between the chapters instead of moving so quickly. Evie was definitely my favorite part of th

The Ultimate Book of Life Hacks was an informative read with some useful tips scattered throughout. However, a good portion of the advice felt like pure common sense, things most people already know, or information that seemed a bit outdated. While I did pick up a few helpful ideas, I was hoping fo

I thought this was going to be a quick, entertaining read, but I was disappointed from the start. Within the first few paragraphs, I had already predicted exactly what was going to happen. When my prediction turned out to be correct, I kept reading, hoping the story would take an unexpected turn or

Where do I even begin?! You’re first introduced to Howard, a gay teenager and proud member of the LGBTQ+ community. You meet his close-knit group of friends in the QSA at his private school, including his best friend, Sue, who has recently transitioned and now lives as a young man. At first, I t

Oh. My. Gosh. This book completely pulled me in from the very beginning! I loved that it’s told through dual points of view, and the way the story unfolds is incredibly gripping. At first, it almost feels like you’re reading two completely different stories—or even two different timelines. But a

This story was funny right from the beginning. The whole mincemeat promotion with the characters was exactly the kind of quirky humor I’ve come to expect from Olivia Dade! The story follows three coworkers trying to earn some extra money during the holiday season. As a bonus, it’s set in Virgini

Space Vampire by Ruby Dixon starts off with some seriously creepy sci-fi vibes. At first, you’re not even sure if the beings communicating are aliens or humans, which adds an intriguing layer of mystery to the story. Things get interesting fast when we’re introduced to Dana, a human, and Vlad, a

If you’re looking for a short, captivating read filled with mystery, suspense, and engaging characters, I definitely recommend Spicy Little Curses. It was an entertaining ride from beginning to end! 📚✨ #spicy #cursebreaker #neworleans #romantasy #romance

Hot for Slayer by Ali Hazelwood was such a fun and addictive read! As someone who loves vampire romances, this book was right up my alley. Ali Hazelwood never disappoints and always leaves me completely satisfied with her stories. I especially enjoyed the opposites-attract dynamic mixed with the

I knew exactly how Evie felt after losing a grandmother she was incredibly close to, and I think that emotional connection is what hooked me from the very beginning. Her grief felt authentic and relatable, making it easy to become invested in her story. When Evie started receiving gifts, I had a

Cruel Winter With You by Ali Hazelwood was such a cute and heartfelt story. The idea of growing up alongside someone your entire life, watching them carry an unwavering crush on you for years, and then finally deciding to take a chance on those feelings was incredibly sweet. Jamie and Marc had s

You really don’t know what to expect when you start this book. Is Sam a killer? Is Harold there to kill Sam and his family? The story keeps you guessing from the very beginning. But no—the real problem is the person you least expect. When the truth comes out, your jaw will drop. I felt for Ju

A short and simple collection of poetry that doesn’t take itself too seriously. While technically poetry, Milk and Money feels more like a parody of the everyday experiences, frustrations, and realities many women encounter throughout life. The poems are brief, witty, and often surprisingly funn

The opening was such a surprise! At first, you think it’s about two friends, but you quickly realize you’re completely wrong. Then comes the story about the old farmer, and just when you think that’s what the story is about… wrong again. But it definitely makes you laugh! What you eventually dis

In Bloom definitely starts off slow, but once Jimmy’s interview begins, the story takes hold and refuses to let go. From that point on, I was completely invested, hanging on to every detail and eager to see where the story would lead. Jimmy compares the algae to Swamp Thing, but the imagery remi

This book was such a quick read! Reading all the strange facts about Hollywood made it really enjoyable. Some facts were completely new to me, while others were ones I somehow already knew, which made it even more fun to read. What I liked most was that it wasn’t only focused on movies, actors,

This story actually scared me a little, not going to lie—especially living close to wooded areas. I have to give so much love to the older sister. To keep searching after all those years, recording everything, and still being brave enough to enter unknown territory takes serious backbone. Honest
