Witches of Lychford by Paul Cornell – Lychford #1

Yay for urban fantasy stories featuring witches! I really wanted to get myself into a short book, and what better way than to read a novella? When a supermarket wants to build a major branch, the villagers of Lychford are divided. Some are open to the prospect of new employment opportunities, while some object to…

The Naturalist by Andrew Mayne

I love biology. Therefore, any fiction story that has biology in it will capture my attention. I also heard very good things about this novel from other reviewers, and that finally made my decision to give this book a try. Here is my review: Professor Theo Cray is a computational biologist who uses computer programs…

The Twilight Pariah by Jeffrey Ford

I was feeling in the mood for a horror story and this short novel, with its creepy cover and even creepier premise, seemed like the right fit. I grabbed it from the library and read it in just over 2 hours. Here is my review: Maggie, Russell, and Henry have been friends for a long…

Thank you to NetGalley, Penguin Random House and the First to Read program for this ARC in exchange for my honest review. I read the premise of this novel and immediately knew it was for me. Now, I say this phrase a lot, and often times I find myself disappointed. That was not the case…

Sweetpea by C.J. Skuse

When I read the premise for this novel, it reminded me of You by Caroline Kepnes, which I had absolutely adored. But in this story, the psychopath is female. I have been so excited to read it so when I got the book, I locked myself in my room with plenty of food, turned off my…

White Tears by Hari Kunzru

I had no idea what to expect when I got into this novel. But after reading it, I can honestly say that it has defied any expectations I might have had. Here is my review: Seth is awkward and shy. Carter is the heir to one of America’s top fortunes. They really should never have…
