Bitten by Kelley Armstrong

I’ve read a couple books by this author but never in any specific order. In fact, I had no idea that her books were even in a series! So being the law-abiding reader that I am, I borrowed the first book in her series. This novel is about Elena who is a werewolf. Not by…

Heartstopper by Joy Fielding

In high school, my librarian recognized my love for horror and disturbing novels (not that I didn’t read “normal” books) and recommended this one to me, saying that she couldn’t get through the first chapter because it was too gory. Of course, I accepted this as a challenge and made up my mind to read…

An English Ghost Story by Kim Newman

When I first saw this title, I imagined it to be exactly what it said it would be: a ghost story. And it turned out to be that but with so much more than just a regular ghost story. This novel is about a family that is clutching at their last straws. In a desperate…

Carrie by Stephen King

Everyone’s heard of Stephen King and everyone knows the story of Carrie. Well, I didn’t. So I decided it was high time that I read this novel. Carrie is about a girl who is a social outcast and tormented by all of the girls in her school. Her home matters are no better what with…

Reviver by Seth Patrick

I know I haven’t written in a while but school has really been getting in the way of my reading. Nevertheless, I found an opportunity to borrow this book and in just finished reading it! This book is about a group of people who have a special talent – they can revive the dead. Although…

The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova

I first encountered this novel in Indigo. It was just there on a shelf, not on the recommended list, nothing on it to make it seem special. But something about the cover and the title grabbed me and on a whim, I decided to buy it. Little did I know that it would be the…

Fahrenheit 451

I actually had the audio book for this story and I feel like that may have affected my perception of it a little but I don’t think it made too much of a big impact so it should be okay. This book is about a fireman named Guy Montag who lives in a society where…

Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton

When I first heard of Jurassic Park, I had no idea that it was a book and the movie was an adaptation. So naturally, I HAD to read it! This book is about a group of people who get invited to an island with an unusual theme park. What makes it unusual is that it…

Flowers in the Attic by V.C.Andrews

So I picked this book up because the cover and title seemed interesting. And well, I guess I got that! I actually ended up reading all of the books in the series but only because I got it as a collection, one of those 4-books-in-1 things. One thing you should know about me is that…
