Night Shoot by David Sodergren Book Review

Image
If you like a fun slasher film you are going to love Night Shoot! Night Shoot by David Sodergren Released May 2019 Dark Fiction   |   Goodreads   |   Amazon   Source: Received for Review Consideration A group of desperate student filmmakers break into Crawford Manor for an unauthorized night shoot. They have no choice. Their lead actress has quit. They’re out of time. They’re out of money. They’re out of luck. For Crawford Manor has a past that won’t stay dead, and the crew are about to come face-to-face with the hideous secret that stalks the halls. Will anyone survive…the NIGHT SHOOT? A delirious homage to the slasher movies of the 1980s, Night Shoot delivers page after page of white-knuckle terror. My 2 Cents For Free! Night Shoot is a wild slasher flick in novel form and it is a ton of fun with plenty of dreadful characters who couldn’t die fast enough! Elspeth is our main character. In order to receive her degree in film &a

The Oh-So-Sad DNF Collection: Take 3

Image
I have had a good run of books lately but there have been a few that didn't quite work out for me. I don't like to DNF but I also don't like the idea of struggling through a book that doesn't get along with me. Here is a little collection of books I had to give up on/skim-finish because I am a quitter and I have entirely too many books in my tbr pile. Family Business  by  Brett Williams I had to DNF this audiobook at 20% because of the animal abuse. I suppose I need to be better about researching books before I agree to review them. I prefer going in blind and reading reviews after I've read the book so as not to get my opinion tainted, or accidentally snatching a phrase. It usually works out for me but sometimes avoiding blurbs and reviews bites me in the butt. This is one of those times. I can stomach almost anything but too much animal abuse is something that haunts me and this book is filled to the brim with it and it is explicit. TW: Rape, Animal C

Tired of Feeling Meh

via GIPHY Hello book people. I've been feeling very disorganized and stressed and just meh about a lot of things these past few years. It's probably been apparent from my sporadic posting on my own blog and I hate that. I always tend to put my blog last on the long list of things I need to do and I need to stop that. I still love books, but I've had a very long think and I need to change how I spend my time. I've wasted way too much time on social media and it does nothing but make me feel terrible no matter how well I try to curate my feed. I'm finally pretty close to being done with the daily scrolling.  So, I'm going to go back to basics and will focus more of my time on Goodreads and my blog and interacting more with people who actually love books and less with the people who do it to push books for fame and fortune or whatever the heck they're trying to do. I am tired and prefer genuine readers to any of that nonsense. If you're new to my blog, here
