A sexy, sultry, and smart summer read was something that I’d been missing so far this season, and I certainly found a book that fit the bill in Karina Halle’s latest standalone romance release, Racing the Sun. Amber and Derio have wound their way into my heart, and I’m glad that I got to spend […]

I’ve always been interested in the stories about organ transplant patients who suddenly start displaying behaviors or preferences that they didn’t have before the surgery, and these are sometimes found to be the same as those of the organ donors. A fantastic podcast that I listen to weekly, Mysterious Universe, has covered the topic […]

Hydra has published solid horror titles this year, and after reading and loving Consumption by Heather Herrman, I dug right in to William Todd Rose’s novella, Crossfades. While novellas can sometimes leave you feeling like there’s something missing, or maybe story isn’t as well developed as it could be with characters that you don’t get to […]
Hi, everybody. I am so happy to have the wonderful Heather Herrman here today for her TLC Book tour for her fantastic debut novel Consumption. Horror is my favorite genre and I reviewed Consumption last week. I’ve often found that when I recommend such great books that just happen to be firmly rooted in the […]
Horror is my go-to genre, and I’ve read so much that it’s hard to find a thing that hasn’t been done to death (pun-intended) or overcooked until it’s mushy and just tastes sub-par on the palate. Heather Herrman’s debut Consumption is chock full of gore and depravity on a scale that makes sense in a […]
