The Witch Is Back | Sophie H. Morgan

pick

Really cute witchy rom-com but probably could‘ve been shorter! Loved all the characters though.

Quarantined | Joe Mckinney

pan

San Antonio, Texas has had an outbreak of a particularly virulent & deadly form of flu & have been cut off from the outside world by a perimeter wall built around the city. Hundreds are dying every day & have to be buried in mass graves. Det Lily Harris works collating burial statistics & notices a body that doesn't seem to have been autopsied & a bullet wound suggests that this is a murder victim hidden amongst the other dead.

OutsmartYourShelf As the police investigation intensifies, they uncover a conspiracy involving those in charge who are intent on hiding the truth from the public.

To say this was originally written over a decade before Covid, it sure got a lot of things right: masks, lockdowns, & staying so many metres apart. It could have been really good except for the fact that the MC, Lily, is a horrible person using fatphobic & homophobic language to describe people. 3w

OutsmartYourShelf In books like this where the MC is fighting for survival, the reader has to become invested in their story, but I really couldn't care less if Lily survived the pandemic or not. 2⭐

Tastes Like Candy: A Slasher Novel | Ivy Tholen

pick

Violet & her friends are the lucky eight girls who receive an invitation to the annual scavenger hunt for 2020. This year they have to break into the Poison Apple Carnival after hours & collect an item each. When they reach the park, they split off into smaller groups to cover the area more quickly, but a masked madman starts to attack them. One by one the girls are picked off in a series of bizarre & gruesome killings.

OutsmartYourShelf A competent slasher horror read. I thought the setting of the Poison Apple Halloween carnival was great - plenty of scope there with the rides, stalls & attraction. Some of the deaths were brutal - one girl dies by candy floss! The characters were actually not completely annoying for a group of teenage girls. I did find the motivation of the killer a bit blah though. I mean, really?! 3.5🌟

TWs: drug use (mild), violence, murder.

so-so

This one isn‘t in the database but it‘s on KU. The cover is indeed a treat, but the story itself is just so-so. It‘s an insta-love story, and that‘s just not a fave romance trope for me. But it‘s really short (about 50 pages) so I‘m not totally mad about it! 🤣

The Venue: A Wedding Novel | T J Payne

pick

Welcome to The Venue! Enjoy your wedding in luxurious surroundings whilst we take care of every last detail. Invite your estranged family & frenemies - it'll be a wedding to die for!

When Amy receives an invitation to childhood friend, Caleb Hunt's wedding in an exclusive resort, her first thought is to wonder why he has invited her & her parents. They haven't been close ever since they left school. (continued)

OutsmartYourShelf They haven't been close ever since they left school. They decide to go anyway & at first the resort is everything they could have dreamed. It seems strange that the guestlist is full of people who aren't exactly Caleb's closest friends & relatives but it all becomes clear when the bride & groom announce that everyone is locked in & you can only leave if you kill another guest first! 3w

OutsmartYourShelf This was a fun read in a sick, twisted kind of way. Caleb & his bride Lilith decide to wreak revenge on those they believe have wronged them. Is it over-the-top campy horror? Yes & I'm there for it. Note that this book has a high kill number so please check out the TWs before reading.

TWs: strong language, suicidal thoughts, drug use, violence, murder, blood, gore.
