Book of Night by Holly Black review

This is such a fun read! if you like dark stories with cool twists you will like this one. The main character Charlie Hall has spent most of her life working for gloamists who are magicians who manipulate shadows. A lot of her past follows her and it is exciting to see all the danger she gets into and if she is able to escape it. Very gripping and exciting read. I recommend. I love Holly Black. I have read a few of her other novels such as the coldest girl in cold down which was one I really enjoyed.

Thrillers/June reading: Sometimes I lie and Neverworld Wake

I am reading 4 books for June but I wanted to focus on these two because they are thrillers. I will be posting reviews and discussions on my youtube channel: Eternal Wynter so please check them out there. Are you reading anything fun this Summer? I love adult fiction and also young adult fiction. Nothing wrong with YA and Neverworld Wake is fantastic so far! It deals with the main character Beatrice and her group of friends who get stuck in a place called Neverworld after a car accident. A world they are not able to get out of and deals with the disappearance and mystery of their friend Jim. The story kept me on the edge of my seat so far and I can't wait to finish it. I definitely recommend this book. Sometimes I lie is a fun crazy story told through the eyes of a woman in a coma who can hear everything around her. There are twists, turns and surprises at the ending that most will not see coming. It is really fun and I hold a discussion on my youtube channel if you want to chime in and give your opinions, questions or answers. What are you guys reading this summer?

Book Review: Girl on the Train



This is a book I think some goths will love. It is a macabre and sullen thriller set in England about voyeurism, obsession and love. I dived into this book and immediately couldn't put it down. Finished reading in a few days. I didn't have all the time in the world to read it usually if I do I can finish a book in a day but I have learned to take a breath and leave time for other things being the bookworm that I am. I hope some of you get a chance to read this book. It literally kept me on the edge of my seat til the very end. It was also extremely visually stimulating and made me want to ride trains more. It makes you think about the lives of others, how you view them, envy them and how others envy you. The grass is not always greener on the other side ;)
