Cabin Eight (The Millersville Series Book 3) by Susan Specht Oram – Review by Jenni Bishop

Cabin Eight (The Millersville series)Cabin Eight by Susan Specht Oram

Cabin Eight is the third book in The Millersville Series which is full of lies and deceit, suspense and danger in this psychological thriller with sci fi elements.
The characters are well developed, and the story will have you on the edge of your seat. Tensions are palpable as our MC finds herself facing her greatest fears……
Seeking solace at a mysterious remote resort she is faced with much more than she thought she could ever find herself in. Miranda has no sense of self-preservation. Curiosity definitely killed the cat and is she next?
With horrors and dangers, dark conspiracies, eerie games of life and death and surprising twists they make for an interesting read.
It’s a fast-paced crime thriller where the pages turn because you want to know what happens and how it ends but you will need to grab a copy yourself to discover what happens.
I am looking forward to seeing what Susan does next.

A Curse of Ash and Iron by Christine Norris – Review by Jenni Bishop

A Curse of Ash and Iron by Christine Norris (2015-05-21)A Curse of Ash and Iron by Christine Norris by Christine Norris

3 stars
A Curse of Ash and Iron is a YA Historical Fantasy tale set in Philadelphia in 1876. It is also a charming Cinderella adaptation with elements of Steampunk. It is a mixture of scientific inventions, machines and magic.
Christine’s passion of childhood stories shines through in the narrative of this fairy tale. She has woven historical facts with fantasy and romance. I nearly gave up as I found it hard to get into as the beginning is very slow but after a while it picked up, so I stuck with it.
The story is told from different POVs which everyone knows I love because you get an in-depth look at the characters. However, I found it hard to fully connect with the characters. The “insta-love” between Ellie and Hamilton was not quite believable but the story is a fantasy.
There is a little twist at the end and the author provides extra details on what she researched and what is historical fact which is quite interesting.
I would recommend this adaptation to anyone who likes retellings.

REIGN: The Rise of the Lich (The Silver Blood Knight Book 2 by Carol McKibben – Review by Amber Howard

REIGN: The Rise of the Lich: The Silver Blood Knight (Book 2)REIGN: The Rise of the Lich: The Silver Blood Knight by Carol McKibben
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is actually the first break that I’ve read by this author. I somehow missed that it was the second in the series, however not reading the first one didn’t take away from this one. It was easy to grasp what was happening.
The most intriguing part is that a few of the are hybrids. Vampires mixed with wolves. The story is very original and entertaining. I couldn’t put the book down. Definitely a great read for those who enjoy the fantasy genre.

She’s used to cleaning houses and getting down in the grime. But the dirt she just dug up could kill. 

Miranda Diggs longs for absolution. But when she tries to purge bad memories and accidentally sends a motel up in flames, the regret-filled young woman seeks peace by checking into a mysterious remote resort. Driven by insatiable curiosity and venturing beyond “No Trespassing” signs, she’s horrified after stepping into a rundown barn that the doors slam shut… and lock.

Seeking a way out, Miranda pries open a trapdoor and follows the tunnel beneath into an eerie game that seems to know all her closest-held secrets. And as the trials morph from subtle emotional prods into life-or-death situations, her fight against the ever-closing walls threatens to become fatal.

Will her phobias push her mind past the point of no return?

Cabin Eight is the tense third book in The Millersville thriller series. If you like startling twists, dark conspiracies, and explorations of the dangers of technology, then you’ll love Susan Specht Oram’s gritty search for survival.

All The World’s A Stage, As They Say

In 1876 Philadelphia, Benjamin Grimm knows real life is much like the theater—people play their parts, hiding behind the illusion of their lives and never revealing their secrets. When he reunites with his childhood friend Eleanor Banneker, his delight turns to dismay. On learning she has been under a spell for the past seven years, forced to live as a servant in her own home, he realizes how sinister some secrets can be.

Ellie has spent the long years since her mother’s death under her stepmother’s watchful and unforgiving eye. Bewitched and hidden in plain sight, it seemed no one could help Ellie escape. Not even her own father, likewise bespelled. When she encounters Ben one evening, he seems immune to the magic that binds her. Her hope rekindles along with their friendship.

But time is running short. If they do not find a way to break the curse before midnight on New Year’s Eve, both Ellie and her father will be bound forever.
