4 Nuts As Halloween draws near I’ve been thinking more and more about my childhood Halloween traditions. School Halloween parties, trick or treat, and of course the telling of supernatural tales. When I was young there were two series that I loved to read at Halloween, BUNNICULA by James Howe and the MAGIC SHOP series […]
4 Nuts Well now this is unexpected. I’m still not really clear if these SAN ANDREAS SHIFTER books are in the same canon as Parasolverse or not but I find myself hoping that it is. Even if it’s not, this little prequel is telling me that I’m probably going to love it anyway. MARINE BIOLOGY […]
4 Nuts WHAT DO YOU MEAN I HAVE TO WAIT!? Yes my friends, this is the end of the Parasolverse binge. Not because the author has ended the stories in the universe, oh no. There are more to come. BUT NONE OF THEM ARE OUT YET! COMPETENCE is book 3 of 4 in the Custard […]
4 Nuts Now this is what I remember loving when I think of the Uglies Trilogy. Where UGLIES is the intro to this world PRETTIES is the exploration of the meat of it. The world the Pretties live in is very different from that of the Uglies and the books are sort of the same […]
4 Nuts Well who would have thought I’d like Major Channing? Not me. I’ve always thought him one of Miss Carriger’s least likable supernatural characters. Major Channing is a major ass. However I suppose even the unlikable beast can be tamed by the right person. For Channing, I suppose that’s an American with a “scandalous” […]
3.5 Nuts Lawd, we’re back to weird. This book follows in more the vein of NEW EVIL than in the original trilogy. Meaning: it’s very weird. However, there’s plenty of good in this one to counteract the weird and the worst of that is mostly confined to the end of the novel. But I digress. […]
3 Nuts What in the devil’s hell is this? As a young reader who had decimated all the age appropriate books long before my peers, I moved on to these scary little novels quite early. And I loved them, reading every single one. Somehow though, even though I KNOW I read this book, I […]
4.5 Nuts “Guess who’s back. Back again. Corky’s back. Tell a friend” And so here we are, the last book in the original Fear Street Cheerleaders series. Of course there are 2 more, plus the origin story (which is technically a Fear Street Saga but I totally consider it part of the Cheerleaders canon as […]
4.5 Nuts And we’re back in Shadyside for another round of cheerleader murder. You know, I think the fact that these were my favorites says a lot about me. There may have been a few moments I rooted for The Evil. But enough about that, let’s continue! The Evil is at it again, but who […]
3.5 Nuts Well now, it’s this a spooky blast from the past. As it is October I decided to go back and read one of my favorite nostalgic horror series from my childhood, The Fear Street Cheerleaders. This spin off series from the regular Fear Street novels features “The Evil” of Sarah Fier, later Fear. […]
