What I’m currently reading… The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. Schwab

By Leave a Comment

WHAT AM I READING? “The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue” and I picked it because of the HUGE love for it by my book twin Tasha, and also Jackie. IT IS SO GOOD ALREADY!! YAY ME!!

Tasha J: I finished it. 5 stars. I can’t voice my thoughts or feelings cuz they’ll spoil it, but holy moly do I have them.

Jackie: I just finished The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue on audio and am absolutely blown away. First off, Julia Whelan does an incredible narration. This is not my genre at all, I tend to steer clear of anything referenced as fantasy, so this took me a bit out of my comfort zone. But what a payoff, hands down the best book I’ve read in quite awhile. It’s a story to get immersed in and just so very different, all the stars-or should I say 7 stars (inside Addie LaRue joke). read more

Book Review – Penpal by Dathan Auerbach

By Leave a Comment

Penpal <— THIS ONE IS TOUTED AS ONE OF THE SCARIEST BOOKS (at least per the scary-book lists online right now), and OMG look at all the awesome reviews. HOLY MOLY. And you know me, I’m all for finding that next super-scary, sleep-with-the-lights-on book… especially right now, on the cusp of Halloween. YES. PLEASE!!!! 😲😬

So I one-clicked it, and saved it for a scary-craving moment and now… I devoured it. Oh and… I went in completely blind, other than that creepy title, and the fact that it was making so many “scary must reads” lists. read more

Reader Question – Will there be a book covering Mitch and Mary’s story from R.L. Mathewson’s Neighbors from Hell series?

By 2 Comments

Gauri is hoping for this one, and we have an answer! And how we LOVE this series (so hilarious – the heroes are so infuriating and fun – and yet equally heartfelt and totally relatable), so I totally get why we’re looking for more. 😀

She asks:

Hi,

Is there any book covering Mitch and Mary’s story? They were the characters from R.L. Mathewson’s Neighbors from Hell series.

Mitch was Jason Bradford’s childhood friend and Mary was Hayley’s friend.

And R.L. Mathewson answered!! 😀 read more
