Witch You Were Here (Nightshade Paranormal Cozy Mystery Book 1) - Lori Woods

   The second book I chose to read this week was Witch You Were Here (Nightshade Paranormal Cozy Mystery - Book 1) By Lori Woods. This book was mysterious, yet adorable. It's very young adult appropriate or if you're anything like me, anything having to do with magic is appropriate.
   The one thing that bothered me the most though, were all the typos throughout the book. They were in almost every chapter, and it kind of killed the mood of the story just a little bit for me personally.
   The story was nice, and other than the typos it flowed pretty smoothly. I chuckled quite a few times to be honest, and it was an easy read.

   This is Suzy Maycomber and her sassy black cat Snowball's first adventure. It takes place in a little town called Nightshade. It's just like any ordinary town except the characters are quite, shall we say... special. When residents around town start talking about the darkness, only one person comes to mind, and his name is Night Shadow. Suzy must now not only find out why he's terrorizing the town, but she must find out who he is? Will she find out in time or will she risk her life for nothing?  
   "What appears good in Nightshade is often bad and what appears bad is often good"

This book gets my overall rating of 3.4/5

Black Hotel - Renee Wakefield

Image
   This week I finished Black Hotel by Renee Wakefield. I have very conflicted feelings over this book for a couple reasons. First, I thought that the first part of the book was fantastic. It was written so well and it flowed wonderfully, until around chapter 16 - that's when the constant typos began to infiltrate the story. For those of you who have been following this Blog, you are already well aware that significant amounts of typos completely ruin the flow of a story for me. That stayed true with this book and it's such a shame, because the underlying story was awesome, it kind of reminded me of the movie 1408, and I love that movie!    Second, the story took a turn somewhere around the middle of the book, and again near the ending chapters. Those twists and turns threw me off just a little bit, but it all somehow fit together into one fantastic story.    The only thing I would recommend for this author in the future - is for her to get a proofreader...

Welcome To Moonlight Harbor - Sheila Roberts

   Welcome To Moonlight Harbor written by Sheila Roberts was simply put - adorable. It was light and airy, it flowed nicely, and had a cute little undertone about it. It was a very easy read and i flew through it in just a couple nights. Its an adult novel with adult issues, but the story is written gracefully enough that i feel even a mature teenager would enjoy it. This story is filled with hopeful characters and second chances are always a possibility. It was great to see a "To Do" list at the beginning of each chapter, and I also absolutely loved the recipes at the end of the story. Since i won my copy off a Goodreads contest, and i had a before published proof, there may be some small changes between my copy and the published copy.    This is Jenna Jones' story. Jenna is newly divorced from a complete scumbag artist that left her and her 14 year old daughter, Sabrina. Jenna is forced to pay him spousal support even though she has their daughter to take car...

The Witch of Halloween House - Jeff DeGordick

Image
   This week I wanted to keep with the Halloween theme and read The Witch of Halloween House by Jeff DeGordick. I got it for free from the Freebooksy email I receive daily, and I wasn't quite sure what to expect from it. It's a Novella and a very easy read to say the least. I'm not sure what group of readers it was geared toward, but if I had to assume, it would fall under the Young Adult category.    I liked the story plot, and I enjoyed how the story flowed without it being super repetitive. The chapters were titled and not just a number which is something I can absolutely appreciate. It wasn't overly SyFy or fantasy based, and it had a little bit of a horror undertone to it.    The Story is based around nineteen year old Carmen and her little brother Tommy. They live in a tight-woven small town, and it's Halloween night when a child goes missing. An old woman who keeps to herself and lives in a little house on the top of the hill is accused of the c...
