Book Review: We Used To Live Here by Marcus Kliewe

Book Review: We Used To Live Here by Marcus Kliewer 5 🌟

Synopsis:

One calm Friday evening as Eve waits for her partner Charlie to come home for a quiet night in a mysterious family knocks on her door. Their father claims he used to live in the house and would like to show his family.

Relunctantly Eve agrees and the madness that follows after is a wild and spooky ride.

This book lived up to the hype for me and exceeded my expectations. It was the perfect book to celebrate spooky season.

From the beginning of the story this sense of dread and foreboding starts and doesn’t let up til the end. The pacing was immaculate. And I felt all the thrills, chills, and spooks. Plus it totally blew 🤯 my mind and has me contemplating EVERYTHING.

Highly recommend to add this book to your spooky season TBR.

Had to balance out all the spooky reads I'm reading right now with this sweet fluffy romance for my bedtime read or I wouldn't be able to sleep a wink. Do you read more than one book at a time?

📚Book Review: The Wager by David Grann 5 🌟

📚Book Review: The Wager by David Grann
5 🌟

I didn’t expect to care about British Naval seamen as they set out on a mission to intercept and attack a Spanish galleon to retrieve the bounty it carried but alas I was hooked.

Grann’s ability to write about historical events in a captivating and engaging way allows you to immerse yourself in these events and become invested in the outcome.

The revelations about human nature under extreme trial and the psychological changes that occur when basic needs are threatened such as food, water and shelter. How easy it can be to slip into a savage and barbaric mindset.

How an empire’s lustful desire for power launched a wild campaign that ended in little victory.

Thoroughly enjoyed this novel and looking forward to reading more from David Grann in the future.

📚️ Book Review: Dracula by Bram Stoker 🦇⁠
⁠
It's practically a mortal sin that I, a self-professed lover of all things vampiric, have never read Dracula until now. And wow, it did not disappoint.⁠
⁠
The eerie, unsettling gothic vibes were immaculate, and I had a general sense of unease and trepidation as the story unfolded. ⁠
⁠
Dracula is the most sinister and villainous vampire. I read with bated breath at each twist and turn of the tale. ⁠
⁠
It was truly a remarkable experience and the perfect way to kick off spooky season.⁠

5 🌟⁠

Dracula-Bram Stoker
My first spooky season book and I’m having a delightfully spooky time so far.

The vibes and atmosphere are exquisite. And the slow intentional buildup of intrigue has me anxious for what’s to come.

📚Book Review
LA Weather by Maria Amparo Escandon

This book had potential but unfortunately the lack of depth into the characters stories and lack of growth and progress of multiple characters it felt empty to me and I couldn’t truly connect with the story.

3 ⭐️

All The Dangerous Things by Stacy Willingham
3.5 ⭐️

Unfortunately this story didn’t work for me I felt it was average and I struggled to connect and like the main character. So sad since it was such a success for others and came highly rated on Goodreads.

Still looking forward to reading her other novel A Flicker in the Dark.

📚Book Review📚
Violeta by Isabel Allende 5 🌟

This book has definitely made it to my list of top books of 2024. I was so compelled by this story and felt as though Violeta was real not some fictional character in a book!

I can’t recommend it enough especially if you enjoy historical fiction it’s an absolute masterpiece 👏🏾
