Special Feature: The Poison Garden by Alex Marwood

There is just something about thrillers that so many of us find irresistible. In recent years though, the sub genre of psychological thriller has emerged as a major player within the thriller genre.

I know that many of you (myself included) like a mind twisting mystery that defies logic. This latest release from award winning author Alex Marwood taps into that sub genre with a vengeance with her latest release, The Poison Garden.

This book happened to be about a cult and the cult mentality that lures people in and the consequences of life within a cult. When I first heard this summary, I was super excited to check this one out and I hope that all of you will too. It’s out now and it’s one that you don’t want to miss!

Review: The Decent Inn of Death (John Madden #6) by Rennie Airth

This series and author are completely new to me and I went into this one with zero expectations.

When the book arrives in the mail, I was immediately drawn to the cover. It has a real noir/crime feel to it and I was eager to read a mystery that was a little different, such as the cover implied.

It is the 6th book in a series though so I had to go into it with an open mind. I mean at a certain point in a series, readers have to expect that there will be established storylines and character relationships to some degree or another, so with that in mind, I picked this one up to check out.

Review: Where Serpents Sleep (Sebastian St. Cyr #4) by C.S. Harris

This series has quickly become a favorite of mine. I mean, I’ve read the later books and enjoyed them but now that I am going back and reading the other books in the series in order, I am seeing the nuanced relationships develop and I simply can’t stop reading!

I only meant to read one or two books in the series, but I’ve discarded that notion and am fully intending to binge read this series before the month is out!

I am currently starting book 6 so I am super excited to read all of the books and share not only my reviews but my take two reviews once I read the later books the second time! Continue reading “Review: Where Serpents Sleep (Sebastian St. Cyr #4) by C.S. Harris”

Review: Starborn (Born Prophecy #2) by Katie MacAlister

When this book came up for review, I quickly noticed that it was part of a series and with a fantasy novel, it’s so hard to skip around in the series, so I decided to read the first book before I picked this one up for review.

I am glad I noticed that this was part of a series because I would have been so lost without that first book so if you haven’t read the first book, stop and read it before moving on to this one!

When I read the first book there were a couple of small concerns I had going into this one, but not enough concerns about the story to not want to read this one, in fact I was hoping this one would be better than the first book.
