  • 3 New Acquisitions!

    I stopped by a Barnes & Noble today and acquired 3 new books to add to my collection, which you’ll see below. The 3rd book was something I was looking for on purpose because I read about it in an article I read. I just came across the other two books purely by accident while…

  • “High Crime Area: Tales of Darkness and Dread” by Joyce Carol Oates

    In this book, there are eight tales……”The Home at Craigmillnar”, “High”, “Toad-Baby”, “Demon”, “Lorelei”, “The Rescuer”, “The Last Man of Letters” and “High Crime Area”.

  • “The Haunting of Rookward House” by Darcy Coates

    {Note: May contain spoilers!} Well, I finished reading this over the course of the weekend. Towards the later half of the book, the main character suffered some injuries and I thought the author went a little overboard with that. I understand that this is a work of fiction……that nothing in the book is suppose to…

  • Another childhood memory…

    Did you ever read R. L. Stine when you were younger? If so, which books did you read? Which one was your favorite? I’m pretty sure I read “Ghost Beach” (seen below) but I want to say there was another one that I read but I can’t remember the title. I’m surprised I didn’t read…

  • “Mirror Image” by Michael Scott and Melanie Ruth Rose

    {Note: This book is definitely mature audiences only! You shouldn’t read this to your children and you shouldn’t read this if you’re squeamish.} I finished reading this recently on my Kindle Fire. This book wasn’t what I thought it was going to be but I’m not saying that the storyline was bad. I was thinking…
