It's Chloe Neill Day!!!

By Book Whisperer February 23, 2016

Chloe Neill is with us today and she has graciously answered a few of the questions that you all submitted to her. 1. Is there a chance of a spin off series that focuses on the next generation of these characters? I have many ideas for book series of all varieties, but there are no concrete plans at this time. There will be 13 Chicagoland Vampires books and at least 3 Devil's Isle books. 2: Does Merit have shifter blood in her lineage? Nope! She was entirely human before becoming a vampire. 3: Does Mallory become an Ombusdman in this book or is she still going to become connected to House Cadogen as discussed in House Rules? Mallory is not an Ombudsman employee, and she doesn't work for Cadogan House. She does volunteer for both. 4: Midnight Marked is the second to last book in the Chicagoland Vampire Series. How do you feel about being so close to end of their story? I'll begin writing the last Chicagoland Vampires novel very soon (probably ...

Review of I See You by Clare Mackintosh

By Roxanne February 21, 2017

Review of I See You by Clare Mackintosh Thank you to Netgalley and Berkley for a copy of the eARC in exchange for a fair review. Zoe is a normal Londoner going about her daily business when she catches a picture in the adverts that takes her by surprise. Her picture, but she puts it out of her mind when she brings it up to her family and they aren't for sure it is her, until she sees and recognizes another picture.

PC Kelly then takes it to the murder squad and attempts to get on the case. Zoe is getting more and more paranoid especially after she trips and almost falls in front of a train. When she sees the man who saved her twice more after the rescue she begins to feel like she is lo...

Fans of Neil Gaiman, R.L. Stine, and the Witching Hour will LOVE Grimm House!!

By Book Whisperer February 12, 2016

Ohhhh This book!!! This is the second Karen McQuestion book we've been lucky enough to review on our blog and her stories just get better and better. This book is written for middle schoolers so think age range between 12-14 years old. That being said I read this book with my 9 year old son and he and I both LOVED it. This book has so many shades of creepy it's hard to pin it down but I'm going to try. If you were a kid in the 90's you probably read a lot of R.L. Stine and his wildly successful horror series Goosebumps. This book is like a combination of that and Neil Gaiman's Coraline. It's creepy and hauntingly beautiful. The book begins with a young 10 year old girl Hadley whose parents are away on a cruise trip. Hadley is a dancer she has natural talent and the dedication to practice for hours to improve her natural talent. In other words Hadley has PASSION for dancing. This is important to note because passion is what the two "Aunts" are a...
