The Madman’s Daughter by @megan_shepherd
Title: The Madman’s Daughter Rating: Author: Megan Shepherd Genre: YA/Fantasy/Horror/Gothic/Mystery Publisher: Balzer + Bray Release Date: January 29, 2013 Review: This is an excellent YA retelling of The Island of Dr. Moreau. Juliet is Dr. Moreau’s sixteen-year-old daughter, and the story is told from her point of view. I found her to be a thoroughly engaging and believable character and I became quickly immersed in her story. There is a creepy gothic/horror vibe to this book that made it hard for me to put down. Be forewarned, although this is a young-adult novel, there is quite a bit of gore … Continue reading

Review: The Lurking Man (Book 2 in Thanatology Series by @Keithrommel )
Title: The Lurking Man (Book 2 in Thanatology Series) Author: Keith Rommel Genre: Drama, Horror Publisher: Sunbury Press, Inc. Release Date: September 6, 2012 Rating: Review: The Lurking Man is a much different book than what I am used to reading. I have never picked up anything that makes me take the main character, Cailean, and compare her life to my own. I found myself thinking I was here in certain aspects. I’m not an alcoholic or anything of the sort; but it made me look back at my own life and at the choices I’ve made. Ok enough about … Continue reading

Review: Something Strange and Deadly
Title: Something Strange and Deadly Author: Susan Dennard Rating: Genre: Paranormal Historical Publisher: HarperTeen Publication Date: July 24th, 2012 Review: When I realized this book was about zombies, I freaked out. I am NOT a zombie fan. I have friends that have endlessly tried to get me to watch The Walking Dead and I will not. I have nightmares even if I THINK about watching a thriller or horror movie/show. Nothing could ever convince me to watch anything to do with zombies. Until I read Something Strange and Deadly. Something Strange and Deadly definitely keeps the reader in suspense. I … Continue reading
