The Third Twin, CJ Omololu
I don't tend to share the books I dislike here because the point of this blog is to recommend books. But The Third Twin holds some promise and some people might enjoy this one. This is another book that I bought digitally and then grabbed it on sale at the bookstore. I really need to… Continue reading The Third Twin, CJ Omololu
Home Before Dark, Riley Sager
This one is well-reviewed, so I will skip the summary I normally do. I read this one because I live in Vermont and I love a good horror story. I felt drawn into the situation immediately because the creepy vibe similar to Amityville was strong. I liked how it was told from both Maggie and… Continue reading Home Before Dark, Riley Sager
Some Choose Darkness, Charlie Donlea
I read The Suicide House last month and didn’t realize it was a book 2 when I had requested it as an ARC. I am not a fan of people comparing books by the same author, but I feel it’s necessary here. The Suicide House was a 5-star read for me. It had several points… Continue reading Some Choose Darkness, Charlie Donlea

Bad Parts, Brandon McNulty
Holy cow, the intensity on this is through the roof! I thought the idea that you could trade your bad body parts for new ones intriguing, and I had a feeling Ash wouldn’t like the restrictions that come with the trade. The thing I loved about this one is that there were quite a few… Continue reading Bad Parts, Brandon McNulty
Catching Up
I wanted to post and let everyone that doesn't follow me on social media know where I've been at. I took a much needed, week-long break from reviews. Sometimes this feels like a very tough, unpaid job, and breaks are a necessity. I am in the process of deleting the Rae's Reading FB page. I… Continue reading Catching Up
