Adam who is a pastor finds himself questioning everything he thought he believed in. Told from the point of view from each family member the truth slowly begins to unravel. Stella has never been your average child, she is the type of girl that lives life by her own rules. Yes, she has been a bit wild but could she ever kill someone? Adam certainly doesn't believe she could do something like that. While Adam sets out to prove Stella's innocence, Ulrika does everything to hold their family tog...

 4.95 out of 5 A beautiful, disturbing, and haunting  ghost story.  Two years after Layla kidnapped from a family outing at the beach she returns to visit her younger brother Gale. The only thing is that Layla returns as a ghost. I will give trigger warnings of rape, kidnapping and child death. The story gets very dark without getting too graphic.  Let me just say that I did spend a good amount of time crying

 5 out of 5 stars Thank you to netgalley and the publishers I will say I kind of grade romance differently from say, a mystery. This was definitely a super fun and cute mystery. I liked the magical premise and the setting. All of the characters were fun and the couple was very easy to root for.  

 4 out of 5 stars Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers It has been a long time since we had a Greer Hendricks book. I keep hoping for more from her and her writing partner but I fear we will not get anymore. For that reason I was super happy to get something new from her. I really enjoyed this. Ghostwriter Anne was offered the chance to ghostwrite Melody Wells (health and lifestyle guru) as Anne falls deeper under Melody's spell Anne begins to work longer and longer hours, following Melody's advice and taking her supplements. When Anne mentions to that she her husband and their twins are cramped in a tiny  Manhattan apartment Melody mentions she that she knows of  a sublet Anne jumps at the chance. Lets just say things don't go swimmingly.

  4.25 stars out of 5 Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me to review this This was just what I was looking for. A cute, fun paranormal mystery filled with all kinds of interesting and magical creatures. I really enjoyed this narrator, she did a fantastic job being the voice of Olivia Kendrick. I love the town of Nightmare and would love to live there.

 4.9 stars Thank you to Netgalley and  Macmillan Audio for an advanced copy of this Mira Grant wrote of my  favorite horror books that I reread every single Summer, Into The Drowning Deep which is a fantastic dark mermaid tale. It is very hard to find dark mermaids. She did it again with aliens this time. One afternoon toddler Stasia goes into the dark woods and when she returns she insists on telling everyone that crosses her path that she is an alien in human form. She tells them that someday they will come for her and one day they do. Lets just say that this is not a great family reunion.
