The Dark World & Reviews

January 25, 2017

This is going to be kind of short as I’m in my library at school and want to get back to writing before I head to my next class (stay in school kids!), but I just wanted to share some reviews with you guys that I’ve received for THE DARK WORLD: BOOK 1 recently.

Blood Talk: Vampires!

November 16, 2016

People often ask me why I chose to write about Vampires, and my answer always is: I didn’t choose to write about Vampires; they chose me.

As I’ve said on this blog before, my mother is to blame (or thank) for my avid interest in all things Dark. She would watch all the old horror movies while pregnant with me, and I guess some of it rubbed off on the little premature baby inside.

Anyway, Vampires are hypnotic, sexy, cruel, damned, monstrous, needy, and, I think, necessary.

Review: Dead Spots by Rhiannon Frater

October 7, 2015

In the dead spots, dreams become reality, terror knows your name, and nightmares can kill you.

The stillbirth of Mackenzie’s son destroyed her marriage. Grieving, Mac reluctantly heads for her childhood home to seek refuge with her mother, who constantly reminds her of life’s dangers.

Driving across Texas, Mac swerves to avoid hitting a deer…and winds up in a dead spot, a frightening place that lies between the worlds of the living and the dead. If they can control their imaginations, people can literally bring their dreams to life—but most are besieged by fears and nightmares which pursue them relentlessly.

Mackenzie’s mother and husband haunt her, driving her to the brink of madness. Then she hears a child call for help and her maternal instincts kick into overdrive. Grant, Mac’s ally in the dead spots, insists Johnny is a phantom, but the boy seems so real, so alive….

As the true horrors of the dead spots are slowly revealed, Mackenzie realizes that time is running out. But exits from the dead spots are nearly impossible to find, and defended by things almost beyond imagination.

My Review of Animosity by James Newman | Other Reads: Sad Wings of Destiny & Tentyrian Legacy

June 1, 2014

I recently finished Animosity by James Newman. I wrote up a review on Goodreads. But I will post it here for your viewing pleasure: Animosity by James Newman My rating: 4 of 5 stars The horror that exists when those you once said ‘hello’ to turn on you. It’s even worse when you understand that they don’t care why they’ve turned on you. Anger, revenge…they turn the nicest people into monsters that are worse than anything our minds can conjure up. For one, they’re real. And that’s the scariest thing of all. Andrew Holland is the protagonist in this unsettling tale, and he’s a…

Awesome Feedback and College-Consumed Days

September 12, 2012

Sorry guys, since school’s started up, I haven’t had much time to update this as I would’ve liked, but I have a bit of time before I must sleep to rise early for my nine o’clock class (remind me why I made my schedule that way, again?), I decided I’d share some things that have been going on with me. My mother’s friend told me she wanted to buy the book a few months ago. Low and behold I get a notification from facebook: it’s a reply to a status update I wrote about what I was writing. “your book…

New Review on The Dark World!

December 1, 2012

Vera rated it 5 starsThis was the first book of the series that I read. I found the characters, locations and the story line to be extremely fabulous. I’m a great fan of mystery novels and can usually figure things out for myself, however, the ending was a complete surprise. I must say that even though this is my kind of book, the author went above and beyond my expectations. Wahhh I had no idea she’d posted this November 23rd! I only just saw it this morning when I went to update my books on Goodreads Widget. Well, then! She…
