Most days I wish that I could create my own hybrid Algonquin Round Table and use my razor sharp wit to amuse my (fake/dead writer) friends. While I wish I was a good person all the time, I’m actually “best” when scathing…it’s a blessing and a curse. As I’ve grown up, I think I’ve tucked away most of these tendencies but I still think about my perfect round table. My line up shifts here and there over the years but always at the table are […]
Evil Doesn’t Die, It Waits and Gets Stronger
I was languishing in my bed these past two days seemingly dying from some horrendous stomach bug that two of my three urchins brought home. Luckily for me several things happened the other day: 1. I didn’t die. 2. I read Prisco’s review of a different book by Jonathan Maberry and at the end of the review he gave a shout out to the Pine Deep series. 3. I had a lot of time on my hands because I was quarantined in my bedroom 4. […]
The Human Condition Peppered with a Wee Bit o’ Horror
A bunch of grisly murders involving all the victims’ genitalia being savagely ravaged (that’s a fun phrase when it’s not about you, isn’t it? It kinda just rolls off the tongue) occur in the small, remote town of Thussock. As dumb luck would have it, these murders only begin after Scott Griffith and his blended family move to this tiny town, as they run away from their own terrible secrets in the hopes of beginning anew. But things don’t go the way they want […]

Tom Petty Got it Wrong, Choosing is the Hardest Part
When I picked up Wolf in White Van at the library, I didn’t even read what it was about. I judged it by its title…and the title scared me a little. It was ominous, it was predatory and I? I was curious. I honestly don’t know how to write this review and I don’t know how or who I’d recommend this book to because I flew through the book, I had certain expectations that were met but at the same time, I kept waiting […]
