Make Up Reading

5 out of 5  Thank you to Netgalley and Thomas & Mercer for allowing me to read an advanced copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review. I first found D.M. Pulley back in 2014 when I found The Dead Key on Amazon as a Amazon Unlimited offer and I was immediately impressed. The Dead Key was in my top five books of that year as it was such a different type of book. When I saw that this book was up for an advanced read I know I had to read it and I am so glad that I did! If you are looking for a good, haunted house book just in time for spooky season (which for me starts in the middle of August because I am that obsessed with Autumn and Halloween!) Then this book is for you! If I had the time to binge this book in one day I would have. As it is I did finish it in two! There is something about Rawlingswood Manor that captivates potential buyers so much they feel that they must have it. Built in Shaker Heights in 1922 for the Rawlings family who became the first victims ...

First I would like to thank Netgalley and Graydon House  for allowing me to read an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review! Let me just say that I am not sure  exactly what genre this books is but I guess I would call it a historical paranormal romance and let me tell you that I am here for it! I just loved this book. I was intrigued by the cover of the book that the blurb but I did not expect to enjoy this as much as I thought I would. This is the perfect book to read on a chilly Autumn evening by the fire. It is warm yet gothic, romantic, lovely and yet heartbreaking. Lydia Montrose has known for a long time that she was different  and she can even tell you the exact day it hit her that something was off, she was around five and she hurt a crue little boy without touching him. After that her Mother warned her to never do that again. Though she didn't understand how she did what she did she tried her best to hide who truly is. In fact she did such a good job ...

Thank you so much to Netgalley and Diamond Book Distributors Lion Forge for allowing me to read this in advance! This book was so good! I loved the art and the story so very much. Marjorie is a girl that feels invisible She just feels as if she will never belong in this world.. She spends most of her time running her family's failing  laundromat as her Father is just too depressed to do anything except lay in bed overcome with depression from the loss of Marjorie's Mother. She also loves to lose herself in books. There is someone in Marjorie's life who happens to also be a ghost named Wendell. Suddenly Marjorie isn't all alone and she has someone to help her save her laundromat. This is a beautiful story of grief, loss, loneliness and strength.. It shows that nothing is impossible with hard work. I loved Wendell and Marjorie and I am sure you will as well. This is a must read!
