What an incredible read! Written from the perspective of a child experiencing a haunting this books unique voice grabs hold and never lets go…kind of like the evil haunting this family. It moves at such a pace you don’t want to put it down, even though you’re flooded with dread and anxiety. The best supernatural book I’ve ever read.

vlibs reviewed The Shadow Murders by Jussi Adler-Olsen
Penultimate cliffhanger
4 stars
After 9 books, Jussi still knows how to tell a compelling story. Not as gritty as some of the others in the series, this definitely has its twists and ends with the ultimate cliffhanger. Can’t wait to read number 10 and see how the series comes to an end!

The world has ended, some have survived, and an unlucky few have been taken into an extreme religious cult. As the “holy” will do, they subjugated, mutilated, and beat women into submitting to their righteous views. Written as a diary, the story is compelling, and heart wrenching at times. Wonderfully written it drips with the pain and emotion of the main character. Her story, and thoughts evolve leading to her destined end. Really enjoyed

vlibs reviewed Motel Styx by Jonathan Butcher
Raunchy but fun
3 stars
Content warning Ending spoiler
With deeply disturbing visuals and gore this book is very over the top. But even with that, the overarching message of the main character being the bad guy came through loud and clear. Low brow, it’s a book about fucking corpses. High brow, it’s a book about dehumanizing women, abusing us, and throwing us away like trash. But in this case, the abuser becomes a very welcomed victim
