Don’t Breathe a Word by Holly Cupala

Don’t Breathe a Word by Holly Cupala is a very intense novel. It is about a girl called Joy Delamere who runs away from home to escape the confines of an abusive relationship.

Never to Sleep by Rachel Vincent

I really didn’t expect to enjoy this novella very much as Sophie has never been a character I have particularly taken to. She has always appeared to be an archetypal ‘mean girl’, with little or no redeeming features. Her antagonistic relationship with her cousin Kaylee has never endeared her to me.

It describes what happened to Kaylee when she was first overwhelmed […]

With All My Soul by Rachel Vincent

With All My Soul is the final book in Rachel Vincent’s Soul Screamers series and what a book it was. While it did not suck me in as much as If I Die (which remains my favourite book) it was a worthy end to a truly fantastic series that managed to shock me with every twist and turn. I am sad to have reached the last book in the series and it is hard to […]
