I love to read. I'm usually reading at least 3 books at a time. They're not all good... some are really bad. I have trouble not finishing books though. Now CBR has doubled down on that trouble, because I want to get credit for reading the bad ones too!

Supernatural eco thriller!

Eden by Tim Lebbon

April 27, 2023 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

Ooh this one was interesting. It’s called a “supernatural eco-thriller / eco-horror”, which sounds a little nuts, but really describes the story well. We start out somewhere in the (not too distant I feel like) future where global worming has almost irreparably damaged the Earth. The world powers have come together to combat climate change by setting up a dozen Virgin Zones in remote locations throughout the world. They’re devoid of people or industry, guarded by soldiers, and nobody’s allowed in. They allow nature to […]

Finally posting my first read of CBR 15! I did actually read it in January, but I’m behind on reviews !!

The Enola Holmes (movie) book

The Case of the Missing Marquess (Enola Holmes #1) by Nancy Springer

December 30, 2022 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

This book was pretty short. I think it was about a five hour audiobook. I liked the narrator though and the story moved along. If you’ve seen the Enola Holmes movie, you know the general plot of this book. The movie was not fully true to the book, but I could understand why the movie changed the parts that it did. I pictured Millie Bobby Brown as Enola the whole time though. Watching the movie first doesn’t actually spoil the book either, which was fun. […]

Charlotte is a good person

What We Forgot to Bury by Marin Montgomery

December 30, 2022 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

Man I seem to read a lot of books where people are straight up lying to each other. And if they’re not straight up lying, they’re gaslighting, so it’s either just as bad or worse. This book has a combo of both! You know something bad happened to Charlotte in her past, because she’s scared to leave the house, jumps at any sound, and leaves her basement door locked up tightly. We of course don’t get the story right away, but in short snippets throughout […]

A creepy little short story

The Line Unseen by Joe Hart

December 30, 2022 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

Boy was this a short book! I’m not really sure that I fully remember what happened in this book. I do remember being fully creeped out though. I’ve read at least one or two Joe Hart books in the past, and they’ve been mostly zombie related. This one was a little different, but it did involve an element of the supernatural / fictional creature. This is basically the story of a guy who finds out his wife is cheating on him, and tries to do […]

Evelyn went a little cuckoo, but she’s ok now

Evelyn, After by Victoria Helen Stone

December 30, 2022 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

Evelyn thought everything in her life was fine. She had a good kid, a successful husband, and a nice house. She gets a late night call one night that her husband has been in a car accident and she needs to come pick him up immediately. She can’t call the cops or tell anyone about it. She thinks it’s a little bit weird, and when she gets there, he’s not alone. He says his patient freaked out at the office and he had to take […]
