Review | Slayer by Kiersten White

11.28.2018 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

***Disclaimer: I received a free early access copy of Slayer by Kiersten White from NetGalley and the publishers for review purposes. Thank you to them!

I was late to the Buffy-verse.  I never watched the show when I was growing up, and I still haven’t seen the movie.  I started watching the show in university thanks to a friend who had all of the seasons on DVD and got through several seasons which inspired me to go out and seek the rest of the show myself.  I still haven’t seen all of Angel, and I haven’t ready any of the comics, and I’ve only watched through the show once, but I loved it.  I fell in love with the characters and the stories that they were telling, so when I heard that Kiersten White was writing a novel set in the Buffy-verse, I was super excited.  When I saw it on NetGalley, requested it, and actually received an eARC, I was so excited.

Review | The Curses by Laure Eve

11.10.2018 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

***Disclaimer: I received a free, early advanced reader copy of The Curses from the publishers and NetGalley for review purposes.

This is going to be a different kind of review. The Curses by Laure Eve is the second novel in a series; it follows the events of The Graces, though it takes on a different point of view.  This is not a review for The Graces, but as the The Curses is a sequel, and I don’t want to spoil any of the events of first novel if you haven’t read it, so I won’t be doing a synopsis like I usually do and I will try to be vague about textual details.  I will admit that I was really excited to read this one. I finished The Graces in the summer and I was super impressed, so I wanted to read the sequel immediately.  Imagine my disappointment when I saw that it wasn’t coming out until December 31st. However, imagine my excitement when I realized that I had been given permission to read the eARC.  I was super happy.

Review | This Lie Will Kill You by Chelsea Pitcher

11.03.2018 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

**Disclaimer: I recieved a free eARC of This Lie Will Kill You from NetGalley and the publishers for review purposes.  Thank you to them for letting me read the book.

This Lie Will Kill You by Chelsea Pitcher is a YA mystery novel.  The main characters are five teenagers: Juniper, Ruby, Gavin, Brett, and Parker, who are all in their final year of high school and who have all been invited to compete for a mysterious $50000 scholarship by participating in a murder mystery party.  Each teen is asked to bring something to the party. The competition is held at a creepy semi-abandoned mansion. Pretty quickly it is revealed that things are not what they seem and perhaps this scholarship isn’t quite as legitimate as it might have seemed.  Could it be connected to the fiery death of one of their classmates the previous year? Who knows.
