My Favorite Creepy Reads

My Favorite Creepy Reads

Don’t you just love a good creepy read in October? I will admit I’m kind of a chicken, so I don’t really read any extreme horror, but I always enjoy a good ghost story! Here is my list of my favorite creepy reads that are perfect for the month of Halloween! City of Ghosts + Tunnel of Bones – V.E. Schwab I read City of Ghosts a few months ago and really enjoyed it! It’s more of a middle grade novel, which means that it isn’t too scary, which means that I can read it without getting scared. Our MC,…

As someone who still lives with her parents, my bedroom is my retreat, and I…

Review: Salvaged by Madeleine Roux

Review: Salvaged by Madeleine Roux

It’s been a hot second since I reviewed anything, so when I got contacted to review what sounded like a very promising sci-fi book, I obviously said yes. Salvaged comes out October 15th, and I hope you guys will consider reading it, as I really enjoyed it! This review is plot-spoiler free. Okay, so if you know me, you know I love a good sci-fi set in space. Space absolutely terrifies me, because I can’t firmly grasp how big it really is and my mind doesn’t like it when I can’t imagine things true to their scale. There are also…
