The House Next Door: A Ghost Story

Stars 5/5
The House Next Door: A Ghost Story by Darcy Coates

Another amazing book by Darcy Coates. I just loved it. Creepy Goodness! The book follows Jo who lives next door to the Haunted House. The house has a long violent past and can never keep occupants. The newest owner, Anna thought she had got lucky to find the house so quick and in her price range but things started to happen. I don't want to go into the story more as to not spoil it but I highly recommend this book especially to those who love a "not so friendly" ghost.

Vivian Divine Is Dead

Stars 5/5
Vivian Divine Is Dead by Lauren Sabel

I really enjoyed this book. The story follows Vivian Divine, a young actress that has just found out that someone wants her dead and that she is going to die the same way as her mother. A knife in the back. Vivian, with the help of her assistant Mary, flees Hollywood into Mexico to hide until it is safe for her to return. During the trip, Vivian loses all her money and passport but meets Nick, a cute young guy that she could fall in love with. I do not want to go into the story more as to not spoil it but I must say that Vivian finds more in Mexico than just Nick. I definitely recommend this book. It is a fun read.

Dead Lake

Stars 5/5
Dead Lake by Darcy Coates

This short read is a creepy masterpiece. I just loved it. It was so unique and definitely a 5 star read. The book follows Sam, an artist needing the peace and quiet of her uncle's cabin so she can paint the 12 pieces needed for the next major gallery exhibition. Sam starts seeing a man around the cabin and down on the dock and that is when things start to happen. I do not want to go into the story more as to not spoil it especially since the book is short but I highly recommend it. Great read for the Autumn/Halloween season.

Craven Manor

Craven Manor by Darcy Coates
(note... This book made it to my 2018 Favorites List)

Holy Cow! This book was OMG awesome! I loved this book so much it definitely made it to my 2018 Favorites List. The book follows a young guy named Daniel who is really homeless but staying with his dreadful cousin Kyle, which let me say right now I hated him! Daniel gets a letter under the door offering him a job at Craven Manor a spooky abandoned estate. Daniel takes the job because it comes with lodging and gets him out of Kyle's apartment and of course the pay is great. While working at the Manor, things start to happen and I am not going into the story more because I do not want to spoil it but OMG it is definitely a Must Read especially during the Autumn/Halloween season. I highly recommend it!

One Of Us Is Lying

Stars 5/5
One Of Us Is Lying by Karen M. McManus

OMG what an amazing mystery book. I really enjoyed this book and it is one where you don't find out the "who done it" until the end. The story starts with 5 high school kids in detention. Outside, two cars get in an accident in the parking lot and the teacher goes to check. When he returns, one of the kids in detention is dying and that kid is the one that runs a website that tells everyone's secrets including the four kids left alive. I do not want to go into the story more as to not spoil it but I highly recommend it and can not wait til the next book.

The Carrow Haunt by Darcy Coates
(note... This book made it to my 2018 Favorites List)

This book is OMG amazing! I loved it so much it is one of my 2018 Favorites. The story is so unique and extremely haunting. The book follows Remy who is a tour guide for the infamously haunted Carrow House. During a tour, she meets Mark who wants to rent the house out for 2 weeks to bring a team of paranormal investigators in to study the spirits within. I loved all the characters in the book even with their differing personalities. That is what made the book so amazing. I do not want to go into the story more as to not spoil it but I will say that this was ghostly awesomeness. I highly recommend it to everyone.

My So-Called Bollywood Life

Stars 5/5
My So-Called Bollywood Life by Nisha Sharma

What a very fun read. I really enjoyed this sweet story. It is one of those contemporaries that make you smile all through the book. It follows Winnie and her astrological predictions for her future. It was said that she would marry a man with the first initial "R" and he would give her a silver bracelet. Winnie thought for years it was Raj but was he really the one. I do not want to go into the story more as to not spoil it but I highly recommend this book to everyone who loves a fun coming of age story.
