Got My Eye On (May 2018 #1)

Image
Need more books? Maybe something here will tempt you the way it did me :) I saw a post over at  Mailbox Monday  that was encouraging readers to share their best finds of the week via their  Books That Caught Our Eye  posts. I love, love, love that idea so this is my warped version of it. Please take a moment to visit my lovely enablers if you want to spend all of your money! Laura @ FUONLYKNEW Sarah by Teri Polen Laura posted a little snippet from this book on her "Teaser Tuesday" post and now I must have it . Here's what it's about: Seventeen-year-old horror fan Cain Shannon thought helping a ghost find her killers would be the supernatural adventure of a lifetime. Now, he just hopes to survive long enough to protect his family and friends from her. A bet between friends goes horribly wrong, resulting in Sarah’s death. When she returns to seek justice against those responsible, Cain agrees to help her. But when he discovers Sarah has b...

I love, love, love that idea so this is my warped version of it. Please take a moment to visit my lovely enablers if you want to be as broke as myself! Daniela @ Noctural Devices The Girl From the Well by Rin Chupeco Daniela says:  " OH, CALAMITY. You discover you aren’t the baddest ass in town! There is something eviler! So, you say: bring it on ! Evil Japanese yūreis  cat-fight! " Here's what it's about: You may think me biased, being murdered myself. But my state of being has nothing to do with the curiosity toward my own species, if we can be called such. We do not go gentle, as your poet encourages, into that good night. A dead girl walks the streets. She hunts murderers. Child killers, much like the...

Maybe something here will tempt you :) I saw a post over at  Mailbox Monday  that was encouraging readers to share their best finds of the week via their  Books That Caught Our Eye  posts. I love, love, love that idea so this is my warped version of it. It's been too long since I got my act together and posted one of these. Sorry about that. My laziness and my fuzzy brain from back pain haven't allowed me to do a lot of blog snooping. As always, please take a moment to visit my lovely enablers if you're in need of more books :) And, really, aren't we all?! Greg @ Book Haven Bad Girls With Perfect Faces by Lynn Weingarten Greg got me with this line:  " Bad Girls With Perfect Faces is so twisted. Deliciously so. I mean really, I've read a ton of thrillers in the last year, and enjoyed many of them, but in some ways this might be the most twisted one I've read." Here's what it's about: From the Ne...

I love, love, love that idea so this is my warped version of it. Here are the six books I've added to the very top my wishlist with credit to my lovely enablers :) Char's Horror Corner My horror reading friend, Char, has given me not one but four must read books to seek out this week. Click the linky above to check out her blog. October by Michael Rowe Char says,  "OCTOBER will join Rowe's last two books on my list of favorites. It's beautifully written, evocative, brutal and surprising all at once. I only wish it could have been a little longer.  Highly recommended to fans of LGBT and dark , dark fiction!" Here's what it's about: The time: the waning years of the 1990s at the dawn of the millennium. The plac...

Here are the books I've added to the very top my wishlist with credit to my lovely enablers :) Chuckles Book Cave Cannibal Creek by Jon Athan Who doesn't want to read a dastardly book filled with stupid people getting chased by cannibals?! Chuckles has tempted me into this one with her words:  "This book is perfect for fans of the classic 70's/80's horror films. There is gore, cannibalism and sexual violence as you would expect from this slasher type book in the genre. " Here's what it's about: While traveling through West Virginia on a camping trip, the Bakers and the Riveras—two close-knit families—have the misfortune of running into a peculiar hi...

It's been awhile because I have been unable to get my act together but it's baaaack and more eclectic than ever! I saw a post over at  Mailbox Monday  that was encouraging readers to share their best finds of the week via their  Books That Caught Our Eye  posts. I love, love, love that idea so this is my warped version of it. Here are the books I've added to the very top my wishlist with credit to my lovely enablers :) Kelly (and the Book Boar) Side Effects May Vary by Julie Murphy I wasn't thrilled with Julie Murphy's Dumplin'  and I'm not the hugest fan of YA but Kelly says this one has a young heroine who is an asshole and now I am intrigued.

So she convinces her best friend, Harvey, to help her with a crazy bucket list that's as much about revenge as it is about hope. But ju...
