Peter Peter Shadow Eater 4.75⭐️ I will never be able to see Peter Pan normally again. This was an eerie, chill tingling retelling of a classic story of many childhoods. We follow Wendy trying to forget the past and move forward but something isn’t done with her. The lore was well done, the stor

3.5⭐️ A Spell To Wake The Dead By Nicole Lesperance The concept of covens, finding bodies in water and Egyptian lore is amazing. The book didn’t need to be over 60 chapters long. The MCs were reminding me of the girls in the craft(but nicer). But the constant repeat that Mazzie kept in every

Thanks to NetGalley for the arc of Midnight at the Vampire Inn by Lindsay Currie. 5⭐️ I said it before but I love Lindsay Currie’s writing. The way that it’s creepy, scary and even educational. This time about curse objects ( one of my favorite tropes) we follow Andie and her family help out at

Thanks to NetGalley for the arc of Batman Vs Joker A decent 4⭐️ Fun for little readers who love Batman and want to know more about him. I wish that they picked an art style and stick with it. Mixture of OG Batman the animated series, the new adventures of Batman and Robin and even some art fr

Thanks to NetGalley for the arc of Shadowclaw by Dylan Roche. 2⭐️ This was such an interesting concept, another boogeyman - like book. This cover is amazing, and creepy. The Shadowclaw parts were creepy and adds chills to the air. But the overall story fell flat. Felt repetitive between the c

Was not expecting this book to make me cry and pull at my heartstrings 4.75⭐️ This book has similar narratives as The Body by Stephen King , and movies like Sandlot. Where the narrator is going back and forth between present day and the summer of the 80’s. The pacing did get a bit sluggish in t

Thanks to NetGalley for the arc of My Neighbor the Yokai 5⭐️ This is a slice of life where humans and Yokai live in harmony. With the good and even the bad Yokai. This is perfect for fans of Studio Ghibli ( specifically My Neighbor Totoro ) and Natsume’s book of friends manga. #myneighborth

What happens when you break the rules to a simple game of Hide and Seek. 4.5⭐️ This is a perfect mash up of kids fight against an evil being and fighting the things they fear the most. Decent amount of diverse characters and pacing was nice and smooth. Perfect for fans of The Clackity by Lora

Don’t go into the basement, that’s where the smashed man lives. 3⭐️ This story started off strong, new girl moves in, has a creepy basement. Perfect spooky setting on all our childhood fears of that room. But I felt this needed way more lore/backstory build up, instead of rushing the explanation

Thanks to NetGalley and the Publishers for the arc of You Still Have Yourself by Fernando Samalot. 4⭐️ This is a giant self reflection on oneself through poems. Each one reflecting the first love, loss of love, and many more, but most importantly self love. Looking into oneself. Overall this

Thanks to NetGalley for the arc of She’s a Doll by Barbara Truelove. 2.75⭐️ Sadly this didn’t hit like I was hoping. When I first read the synopsis, I thought a dark, gritty vengeance. That we get to solve who murdered Lucy. This felt more of a goofy, reflective style instead. Also this story i

3.5⭐️ This book covers a gruesome topic that needs to be discussed. The old reformatory “ farms and schools”. Where many were dehumanized. Please check trigger warnings ⚠️⚠️ What killed this story sadly wasn’t the topic, it was the characters and the dialogue. The characters felt 2000’s, and th

Wanna play a game? Growing up in the creepypasta generation, we all heard these stories. We follow six kids playing one of those games, The Midnight Game.
