Historia
Caspien Deveraux was poison. It took me years to realise that he hadn't been born like that. He'd been cultivated and nurtured by a careful hand and a bitter heart. When I first met him, he was a bud. One primed to bloom beautifully and deadly. One I should have torn out at the root.

Absolutely beautiful
Revisado: 10-17-24
I saw the amazing reviews and had to check this out. I barely ever leave reviews unless something blows me away and I read multiple books a week. This was probably my favorite book of the entire year. Absolutely beautiful writing. the character development was everything I want in a book. The writing style was just beautiful. Can't emphasize it enough. Don't even get me started on the insanely talented narrator. Everything about this book and the way it was narrated just blew me away. I didn't want it to be over. Don't take my word for it; check it out yourself and thank me later!

Historia
Welcome to Paradise. Sandy beaches. Crystalline waters. An all-inclusive resort with virtually everything you can think of. A true idyllic paradise. An event is taking place at Paradise Club that wasn’t on the brochure: a dangerous game pitting the hotel’s guests against a gang of bloodthirsty maniacs. Elliot Harper—family man and FBI agent—is about to find out how fast heaven can become hell when every single vacationer is forced to become a ruthless killer in order to survive. A team of killers have been unleashed, and they won't stop until every single guest is dead.

A Gory Adventure 🏝
Revisado: 05-20-23
I really enjoyed this read and I'm a little bit of a book snob. This was a genuinely exciting adventure of a book....A gory, gory adventure of a book. I loved it.

Historia
Shelby works as a dog walker in northern California, and she’s just finished up her bi-weekly trip to the park with a husky named Pluto. When she brings him back to his house, she finds his owner - Todd Burke, a well-known local businessman and founder of an organic supplements company - lying on the bathroom floor, dead. A detective arrives on the scene. As she interviews Shelby, the body is inspected by a medical examiner, and more cops search Todd’s home, it becomes clear that the victim’s life was less picture-perfect than his clean-cut persona might lead you to believe.

Yeah I'm down
Revisado: 07-21-22
I usually read pretty long novels and series, but I like to take somewhat of a break sometimes and read or listen to something different... and short and quick. I tend to lean towards darker material. I really enjoyed this one and recommend it.

Historia
No one would say Keelie Lockhart isn’t determined. Taking on the role of both mom and dad to her two young kids, she’s managing life the best she can. Saddled with a century-old dilapidated farmhouse she can’t afford, a bevy of goats, two dogs, and a geriatric donkey, the last thing she has time for is a man - even if that man is a knight whose shining armor comes in the form of worn-in jeans and work boots.

Ok I guess
Revisado: 04-03-22
A lot of comments stating this was one of the better of the series, but I didn't find it nearly as suspenseful or exciting as the First and second In the series. still a good read, just not as good as the reviews made it sound. Not a lot of build up between the 2 main characters, not really a reason for so much infatuation and Kellee was kind of annoying with her out of nowhere "need for space" ... I mean REALLY out of nowhere, it really threw me off and made her unlikable, so it was a little hard to finish after that.

Historia
Ever hear the story about the bodyguard who falls for the rock star? Yeah, it never ends well. Each day I remind myself that it's my job to protect Stone. And nowhere in the job description does it say I should lust after the charismatic, charming man. Especially since we're opposites. But every night I spend with him the dangerous, off-limits attraction grows more intense. Until one night in a limo when we combust.

I was waiting on this one and it did not disappoint. The story was great, narration was perfect (as per usual with these 2 narrators). I definitely recommend it!

Historia
Victoria McQueen has an uncanny knack for finding things: a misplaced bracelet, a missing photograph, answers to unanswerable questions. When she rides her bicycle over the rickety old covered bridge in the woods near her house, she always emerges in the places she needs to be. Vic doesn't tell anyone about her unusual ability, because she knows no one will believe her. She has trouble understanding it herself.

Hill...Always good
Revisado: 07-17-19
Joe Hill is insanely good. I have read Heart Shaped Box, the entire Locke and Key graphic novel set and just finished NOS4A2 and his work never fails to hold my attention and even sparks my own creative thinking. I love that he had a very quick Locke and Key reverence in this book. If you enjoy horror and sci fi and delving into the idea of different worlds existing inside of people's minds, definitely read anything Hill writes. Apparently having a knack for writing novels runs in the family. Excellent read. The narrator was also amazing. 5 stars overall.

Historia
They say revenge is a dish best served cold. I’d had four years to stew on what Daria Followhill did to me...now my heart was completely iced. I took her first kiss. She took the only thing I loved. I was poor. She was rich. The good thing about circumstances? They can change. Fast. Now, I’m her parents’ latest shiny project. Her housemate. Her tormentor. The captain of the rival football team she hates so much. Yeah, baby girl, say it. I’m your foster brother. There’s a price to pay for ruining the only good thing in my life. She’s about to shell out some serious tears.

Always angsty and amazing
Revisado: 05-31-19
L. J. Shen is ALWAYS a go to for me since I first started her Sinners of Saint series a couple years ago. I read many other reviews and understand where most are coming from, but disagree that the characters were unlikable or had massive mental issues. The characters were deeply damaged and everyone should remember the awful things they did as teenagers. We're all human and ultimately sinners. What really counts is how we choose to redeem ourselves and fess up to the things we do when we're under immense pressure. Shen is amazing at making the reader feel almost tortured for her characters and the awful things that seem to be constantly happening to them. I believe this build up makes the resolution all that much better in the end.

Meyer is waaaay too good at building anxiety......
Revisado: 11-09-18
I am such a huge nerd fan of Marissa Meyer and her ability to suck you into her character's lives. I can't really place it, but there is something about her writing that makes me so damn anxious to know what will happen. She evokes similar reactions and 'edge of your seat' frustration in pretty much all of her books, which I have read every single one. Meyer brilliantly sets up her stories in a way that leaves the reader wondering how in the hell it is all going to work out in the end.
I literally waited an entire year to read this installment of the series and I was not disappointed at all, but I did notice the story slowed quite a bit to allow for Adrian and Nova's relationship to blossom a bit more. I think that's why some people are stating that this one was slower than the first. So much action starts to happen towards the end of the book and as per usual, Meyer had me talking to myself on my drive to work, getting ready to punch something because I desperately want the characters to reveal all of their secrets to each other once and for all. When I heard the music signaling the end of the book, I yelled AWWWWW WHAT?!? to myself while gripping the steering wheel and hauling ass on the highway. I will once again be anxiously awaiting the next, and final installment. WRITE IT ALREADY, MARISSA! lol

Revisado: 09-27-18
This entire series kept me on my toes and I think I read all 4 books in about a week. If you like intense, suspenseful stories and enjoy the darker side of romance novels, this series is for you. The writing was excellent and the narrators were ridiculously good. There are so many times that I felt so damn frustrated at how the main characters were treated and the hell they had to go through, but those stories are often the best when it all works out in the end. Definitely enjoyed all of the books in this series and would be interested in reading other works from Tillie Cole..

Good read...kinda disappointed at the end :(
Revisado: 07-18-18
This book was very intriguing and kept my attention the whole time. I am slightly ADD about books and if I get bored, I sometimes will start reading another book or lose interest in finishing it altogether, but this one kept my attention and I finished it within a couple of days. The story and characters were great and I loved the progression of the book, but I can't stand having a big build up with a not so satisfying explanation at the end. Too much build up for not a lot of answers. I understand some books are written this way on purpose, but I would've liked more of a solid explanation about the "truth" that was being sought so thoroughly throughout the entire book. Luke Daniels was an awesome narrator, as he always is. I'll still give it 4 stars because I stayed entertained the entire time, but that last star is being held back due to the ending. Still worth the read, though.
