Personal Review: Eden has been avoiding the Halloween festivities, content with seeing her alpha crush around campus as she works up the courage to speak to him.

A true Halloween themed read set in October, where the highlights are scares and revealing costumes. It's entertaining and short. Nothing spooky, instead it's a whole lot of freaky. Jump into this one, where an angelic omega gets some demonic loving.

hey broke my halo.

Burned my wings.

Sent me plummeting straight to Hell.


When I’m captured by demons and forced into the fighting pits of the Seventh Circle of Hell, I need to stay alive long enough to claw my way back to Heaven and destroy the archangels who betrayed me.

Four dangerous men stand between me and my vengeance.

A deadly Nephilim in self-imposed exile. Hunger incarnate, ravenous for an angel. The heir to Satan’s sinful throne. And the prince who bound my soul to his until I win my[more...]



Personal Review: We've all dressed up as a hot angle or demon during at least one Halloween. Melisande has fallen and landed herself in hell. Her halo broken, her wings blackened, and her heavenly magic corrupted, there is only one thing on her mind. Vengeance. She didn't actually fall, she was pushed, now she must fight to survive in hell, and try not to lose her heart to hell's most dangerous men. A great read for this Halloween season. I mean all devil's and ghouls originate from hell. The story is action packed and fun. It's cool seeing an angel be kind of hellish. The story also heats up as men she shouldn't fall for, are already falling at her feet, despite the intense bickering between them. It's a story that portrays the saying, "How can something so wrong, yet feel so right?"

Two things are impossible to walk away from: death and vintage clothing. Trust me. I've tried.

Moving across the country and opening a costume shop was supposed to be my chance for a normal life. What I wanted was a fresh start, one where the biggest danger would be a carelessly wielded sewing needle.


What I got was the ghost of a murdered reporter demanding[more...]



Personal Review: No Halloween booklist should be without a plot with a haunted house and murder mystery!! Kali just wants to move on from her sister's death, and do what she loves, make costumes for the Halloween celebrators. But life has other plans, when a trip to a haunted house, turns into a criminal act of murder and mayhem. Now Kali is seeing the dead man that she quite literally found herself tripping over, much like how she once saw her dead sister. For some reason she can't let this mystery go, this one she has to solve. The book was entertaining and like most mystery reads, left a puzzle to solve by the reader. The protagonist frustrated me, having almost no self preservation and thought out plans for the consequences she would have likely faced. Honestly, I considered stopping, but this one is a real page turner and despite my frustration, I admired the bravery and tenacity of the heroine. By the end of it I was ready for book 2. It's a perfect start for your Halloween, take a peek into this haunting mystery!.

Last week I accidentally and publicly raised the dead. Now I’m the only necromancer at Ravenhold reform academy.

Ravenhold detains dangerous juvenile offenders on a remote Scottish island, where their magic is useless and escape impossible. I’m told I’ll leave after rehabilitation, but nobody will tell me how or when.

Dorian Blackwood rules over the vampires, shifters and witches in the academy's halls. As the only vampire-witch hybrid in existence, he has unparalleled supernatural abilities and few people dare confront the cruel and charming savage.

But the academy's two other powerful hybrids want him deposed[more...]



Personal Review: How is it a Halloween themed list without witches? Eloise has only known her very powerful family and the act of being a good circus clown for her family's rivals and friends, by showing off her very illegal powers. Unfortunately for her, she uses her powers at the wrong time and lands herself in a rehabilitation institute, filled with snarling, murderous, hybrid men, and very suspicious staff. It's a nightmare in its own right, and all she's looking to do is keep her head down and be released. This read was an unexpected mystery. What's happening in that so called rehabilitation academy, makes for an interesting plot, that is sure to draw you in. If that doesn't, then the enemies to lover romance is sure to. I mean how can anyone love such evil men? And yes men, because this is the beginning of a reverse harem romance. The characters are interesting, freaky, and slightly creepy, each in their own way. This is a read perfect to keep you entertained by its mystery and romance. Let's not forget that you begin to find out that many are not who or what they seem!

Meet Darby. Coffee addict. Homicide detective. Oh, and she can see ghosts, too.


There are only three rules in Darby Adler's life.

One: Don't talk to the dead in front of the living.

Two: Stay off the Arcane Bureau of Investigation's radar.

Three: Don't forget rules one and two.


With a murderer desperate for Darby's attention and an ABI agent in town, things are about to get mighty interesting in Haunted Peak, TN[more...]



Personal Review: One ghost story is never enough. Darby talks to the dead. Not a very useful power for her I'm her day to day, but very useful for her job as a homicide detective. Insert murder, and hot guy, whose not what he seems, a gay best friend who rather turn away from oddities around him rather than face them, and a sassy ghost, who takes no one shit. What do you get? A fast paced art of badassery. This is a story perfect for reading on the go. Short and sweet with a lot to eat!!!! You'll definitely be consumed by this first book in this series. The heroine is a cranky, shit talker, whose braver than most, since she not only catches bad guys, but deals with ghost regularly. It had action and laughs, a potential enemies to lovers romance, and you know, a whole lot of dead people. Its perfect for this Halloween. Don't miss out on this one, find out who haunts this ghost talking, shit talker, and what she learns of her power.

The Emperor needs necromancers.


The Ninth Necromancer needs a swordswoman.


Gideon has a sword, some dirty magazines, and no more time for undead nonsense.


Tamsyn Muir’s Gideon the Ninth unveils a solar system of swordplay, cut-throat politics, and lesbian necromancers. Her characters leap off the page, as skillfully animated as arcane revenants. The result is a heart-pounding epic science fantasy.


Brought up by unfriendly, ossifying nuns, ancient retainers, and countless skeletons, Gideon is ready to abandon a life of servitude and an afterlife as a reanimated corpse. She packs up her sword, her shoes, and her dirty magazines, and prepares to launch her daring escape. But her childhood nemesis won’t set her free without a service[more...]


Personal Review: All Gideon wants is to escape her life if servitude to someone she deems wicked. With petulance and defiance galore, she makes another attempt to escape her life, and fails. Now she's tempted to help those she despises, if only it may mean her freedom. This is a read that originally wasn't meant for this list, a personal read, meant for my spare time I've had, so its very much an unfinished read. But it's too captivating to not share. Its filled with a morbid hilarity and a potential love hate romance. It's perfect for this list not just because of the necromancer and all the bones and death, but also its haunting and sense of utter defeat lingering in its first pages. You feel for the character immediately. Feeling her captivity and frustrated at being outplayed by her nemesis. A nemesis that I hope may be a lover. Such an interesting read that I implore all to indulge in this Halloween season. Don't miss out on this great one, filled with a smart-ass swordsman, her necromancer nemesis, and a few nudie mags.
