NOS4R2 - just a number plate or something much more? This was an amazing story and you can see that talent run in the King family... The story takes place around Christmas. Also about a young girl with a gift that turns into a woman and then a black car and an extremely creepy guy that drives the car. I can't say much more or go into detail as it will give the story away and ruin it. I read this in a few short days and also around Christmas a few years back, you know to get into the Christmas spirit. Seeing this photo and thinking about all the weird and dark twists and turns in this book wants me to read it again, plus it is almost Christmas again. So people that know me can tell you that I love Stephen King and Horror (also coffee) so it just came natural to me to pick up this Joe Hill book and so glad that I did because he clearly got it from his daddy... This was my first Joe Hill book and by far not the last one I will get. I love his writing style and his stories i...

The Exorcist - William Peter Blatty Thrilling and splendid. You will finish this novel in one sitting, I did. It is so captivating that you just can't put it down. We all saw the movie and it was great yet scary but this novel it above and beyond, it really plays with your mind. It makes you think that maybe just maybe she does just have a mental illness. It shows how easy a possession can be misdiagnosed as a mental illness and visa versa. This is really one of those novels that stays with you. Very unnerving.

The Darkest Minds - Alexandra Bracken Excellent! What an exceptional read. The characters are enjoyable, courageous and entertaining. Such a heartbreaking ending yet so meaningful. This story have a little bit of everything in it and I would recommend it to everyone, young and old. It shows how heartless people can be and yet how not everyone is alike. How power can change people, some for good and others for worse. How people can corrupt innocent children and treat them like a disease and yet they can get away with it You really root for these characters from the beginning. I really did enjoy this novel a lot. It is a treasure. Never Fade - Alexandra Bracken Oh how I absolutely adore this novel. It shows how love can have a lingering feeling in your heart and makes you appreciate the connection between Ruby and Liam. Here is a few twists and turn that will make you gasp and then a happy and also a horrible ending, such a sad one. Very action packed and a few characters to a...

Stephen king - Mr. Mercedes Wow... what a thrilling story! It sure makes you look at people differently and much more cautiously. It shows also not to judge a person by their appearance, since the normal man can be a psychotic killer and the nervouse nutcase woman can be a very valuable member to yor case and a potential friend. This book had its disturbing parts but it was truly a great novel. Not only to you get to explore the Det. POV but also the killer's POV. Most definitely a great cat-and-mouse story... A must read not only for Stephen King fans but also to anyone who loves a good detective/thriller & psychology thriller story. Brilliantly written with a compelling story line.

The Tales Of Beedle The Bard - J.K. Rowling I loved it! It was short and sweet with Professor Dumbledore's Notes. It takes you back to the whole Harry Potter world. It truly is a cute book worth the read for any HP fan and even great as bedtime stories... I love the whole diverse fairy tales with all the magic and delight and even with morals implied... There is five magical short/bedtime stories for all to enjoy... With the famous The Tale Of The Three Brothers also in this little treasure. Every HP fan will know that bedtime story for it is a big part in the last novel in the HP Franchise... *The Elder Wand *The Necromancy Stone          & *The Invisibility Cloak

The Wo man in Black - Susan Hill We have all seen the movie but this novel goes deeper and with a completely different ending and in-betweens... It is chilling and heartbreaking and a ghost story. Eel Marsh House, salt marshes, Nine Lives Causeway, Arthur Kipps, the woman in black, a mystery and ghostly noices and happenings. It will give you a chill down your spine 👻

Broken Monsters - La uren Beukes I read this novel a while back and I have to say that it is not what I expected! It was great. Not only the element of murder and mystery but also a hint of the supernatural... You start reading it and start thinking and then get hit with something completely different and great. A very compelling read. Well done Lauren So what is this novel about? In a broken city, a disturbed killer is trying to remake the world in his image. A dark and gripping thriller about the death of the American Dream, online fame, creativity, compromise and the undercurrents of the world we live in right now.

Joyland - Stephen King  Splendid & Mysterious One of the best mystery novels out there... King writes this story as one will tell you a story, with bits of future information about people in it or stepping of the story for a moment or so and relive another memory.  And who is the killer? You won't believe it and of course you expected just about everyone...

Naomi's Room - Jonathan Aycliffe  This novel is creepy, it even had me sleeping with my bedside lamp on one night... And that is what you want with a ghost/horror story. It have quite a few twists and turns in it and a great ending but not really an ending gou would expect,  yet another thing you want. It was really one of those books that you just want/have to read. The more you turn the pages the more twists you get. If you want a scary ghost story then this is for you. I have to say that the part where Naomi dies is heartbreaking. Exceptionally written, you experience all the emotions

Revival - Stephen King "This is how we bring about our own damnation, you know - by ignoring the voice that begs us to stop. To stop while there's still time." - Jamie Morton, Revival Exceptional & Outstanding. Everyone you meet, you meet for a reason and sometimes they are not good. This book strech the boundaries of afterlife and digs into De Vermis Mysteriis & Potestas Magnum Universum. This novel is great and easy to read and keeps you turning the pages... the characters are so real and yet completely different from each other. Charlie took him hobby and turned it into an obsession and stepped over the law of life... How something can look great but turns ugly with a price to pay at the end... I was certainly hooked on this book, it is geniuse and shows that you can't put Mr. King in a single genre and that he knows how to go far beyond the border where most would draw the line. All the clues to the end are there, everywhere in the novel you just ha...

Safe Haven - Nicholas Sparks Wow... This is a truly beautiful story. This is one of those nivels where if you want to reflect on love and what is important, then read it or re-read it. I am for sure going to read this novel a few more times. The letter Jo wrote to Katie brought tears to my eyes, so sad and yet so beautiful and touching. Nicholas Sparks are truly gifted in the art of writing and knows how to capture your heart and feelings... He is my favourite romance/drama writer. The novel and movie are completely different in nust about 98% of it... Yet both are exceptionally good 💌🎡

Ugly Love - Colleen Hoover This is my favourite Colleen Hoover novel... This novel has everything a romance novel needs... It broke my heart to found out what happened to Miles Archer  in his pass but the novel do have a fair amount of funny happenings in it. I was enchanted with this novel and read it in one aftetnoon. This novel is witty, delightful, touching and an absolute must read! This is one of my favourite romance novels and the song Ugly Love by Griffin Peterson is one of my favourite new song... 💔

What a girl wants - Lindsey Kelk This novel was entertaining, amusing, blissful and a bit sad in the end. Actually heartbreaking but overall one of the best romance novels. Tess is most definitely one of the best female main characters out there, not only is she fun, funny and a bit crazy. Let's not forget Nick Miller, still the charming, sweet, asshole (what more can a girl want). There is so much fun drama I  this novel, I actually laughed out loud a few times. The novel took all the great fun and funny turns. The heartbreak left me sad. I don't know if I review could do it any justice but I most definitely would refer it to everyone and anyone. This is a great, fun and funny sequel to a great funny first novel 📷

Maybe Someday - Colleen Hoover This was my first Colleen Hoover novel and most definitely not my last, also my very first audio book I listened. May I just say that Zachary Webber truly have an appealing husky smoky voice. This is such a moving story about love, sacrifice and loyalty.  There is really not much to say other than it is one of the best love stories out there, it is a really moving story that would just leave you speechless and wanting more. I absolutely loved this novel and Colleen Hoover. Outstanding writing and a brilliant story 🎼

How to survive a horror movie - Seth Grahame Smith I absolutely love this book! A reread for sure. This book is so funny and yet insightful. Seth brings all the classic horror/slasher movies in and gives great advice. A must read for all horror/slashers fans out there. I think the "An apology from Wes Craven" is great. I mist say I enjoyed the part about possessed dolls (chucky) hilarious. This is by far one of my favorite books. I would definitely recommend it to everyone, not just horror/slasher fans. It is so enjoyable that you can read it in one sitting.  This is a book for any occasion or mopd that you are in. Do yourself a huge favour and go get this ASAP :)

Bazaar Of Bad Dreams - Stephen King What a great collection of short stories.  From Bad Little Kid to Under The Weather to sad story of Summer Thunder. I love the short little "introduction" he gives before every story... They truly are the work of imagination from a genius of writing.  There is no surprise that I love Stephen King and he sure knows how to keep his fans happy and satisfied.  The one Author I never have any trouble to spend money on because you know that you are going to get ypur money's worth in his stories...

A Midsummer's Nightmare - Kody Keplinger This was really a non-thinking novel. One you can read in one sitting and you have to do no thinking.  Easy to follow and you just keep on going. There was a few funny moments,  guess every girl would love to have a Nathan.  Also shows not to judge a book by its cover, what people say about others are not always true and a photo can easily be manipulate, so don't judge until you know the true story.  I truly felt bad for Whitly and can see how she made those decision that she did, not good ones but still easy to see why. I really thought this book shows a lot more than just a girl looking to escape and find a good time. Takes you back your teenage years... I liked this book.
