Horror Novella Review: The Secret Skin by Wendy N. Wagner

Image
I finished this book yesterday, wrote a review and posted it to my blog. Who the heck am I?! The Secret Skin by Wendy N. Wagner Released October 2021 Dark Fiction   |   Goodreads   |   Amazon   |  Bookshop The Secret Skin by Wendy N. Wagner is a sawmill gothic that begins with June Vogel’s return to Storm Break, her family’s estate. Things in the great house aren’t what they used to be. Doors slam in the night. Faucets turn on, untouched. Something is always watching, whatever June does. And when her brother returns with his new bride, deceit and betrayal threaten to destroy everything she loves. My 2 Cents For Free! This review is my personal reading experience. Yours may differ. Don't be blaming me if it does! The Secret Skin is a quick gothic read. It has all the spooky things you’d expect in a gothic and a few surprises too! June returns to the family estate, a looming mansion on the coast, to care for her 9-year-old...

One Yellow Eye by Leigh Radford | Horror Fiction Review

This started out great but disappointed me in the end. My 2 Cents for Free! One Yellow Eye by Leigh Radford Released July 2025 Source: Audible Purchase See more @ Goodreads It’s been ages since I read a zombie novel and read this along with the Horror Spotlight discord https://discord.gg/xQuPPJus6U .

She’s told everyone he is dead but the moans and groans and noises coming from her home tell another story. She’s been accepted into a secret group called Project Dawn who are working on the cure (and the other things) and uses her knowledge hoping to ...

PSA: I Might Not Like Your Book And That's Okay

I'm making this post a sticky post because it keeps having to be said! Sorry for yelling but seriously, it is okay if I do not like your book. I am but one person in a sea of readers. Most of who probably have better taste than I! There is no need to come on over to my review (or anyone's) at Goodreads and tell me how much of an idiot you think I am. It will not change my opinion about the book but it may change someone's opinion about you. A bad review is also never a reason To Start A Petition to force Goodreads to change their TOS to suit you. I love books, I love authors, I love to read, to review and I love nothing more than to spread the word about books. But I'm not always going to like your book. In fact, I will probably dislike at least one thing about it because I'm a bit of a jerk like that and that's okay too. There are very few books that I think are perfect. The first one that comes to mind is Geek Love by Katherine Dunn. It is my comfort ...
