The Gothic nature of the story, the tense atmosphere and the dark plot line all contribute to making this a chilling read. As they soon realize, Maddy’s ghost is no hoax and she is a threat to all three of the ghost hunters unless they agree to help her in her desire for vengeance. Set in the 1920s, both the men are veterans of World War I and have physical and mental scars. She also isn’t prepared for the arrival of Alistair's assistant, Matthew Ryder, whom she is immediately attracted to. Sarah doesn’t believe in ghosts, but she finds herself confronting something that is both real and terribly angry in the barn. Maddy hated men in her life and acts up if a man tries to communicate with her now. Sarah Piper is sent by her employment agency to assist Alistair Gellis in his investigation into the spirit of Maddy Clare, who is haunting the barn where she committed suicide. This is a fascinating story about ghost hunting. I thoroughly enjoyed The Haunting of Maddy Clare by Simone St. It’s a safe bet that many of us remember where we were at the time the attacks happened, and the story Colin retells is so chilling that I remember where I was while I was listening to this portion of the book: I was putting my 6-month-old baby to bed, rocking him to sleep. Colin’s mom was the NYFD’s doctor and Colin recounts her experience on the ground the day of the 9/11 attacks. The most chilling, impactful story he told, however, was one that centred around his mother. Bart’s had to be one of my favourites, and the anger in Colin’s voice on the audiobook as he describes what happened to him at the Google offices had me laughing out loud. I think his surfing story with Jimmy Buffet in St. I was so excited when he announced he would be writing a book that I preordered it on Audible as soon as it became available to me.Ī Very Punchable Face did not disappoint: Colin tells tales of his childhood, of his time as a SNL writer and everything in between. I enjoy his banter on Weekend Update with Michael Che, and he has written some of the funniest sketches in the last decade. That being said, this review won’t be very long, but what it will be is glowing.Ĭolin Jost, Head Writer of Saturday Night Live, has been a favourite of mine in recent years. I’m a little annoyed at myself for not writing a review for A Very Punchable Face right after I read it last summer, but I guess I was busy with other things (mom life during a pandemic! Who knew it would be busy?) and didn’t get around to it. Unbeknownst to Jen, in an act of desperation to protect his unborn child and mate, Decebel strikes a deadly bargain with the Great Luna-his life in place of his child’s. With each passing day, Decebel grows more distant, causing Jen to wonder what toll the impending loss of their child is taking on him. The thought of losing Decebel’s child constantly threatens to overwhelm her. Meanwhile, Jen’s pregnancy progresses and the fateful due date draws ever nearer. Now Cypher must decide not only how to protect his newfound mate and his people, but also how to destroy the only family he has left. But Reyaz, brother to Cypher the warlock king, has vowed retribution for a life that was taken from him. The powerful witch, Desdemona, has finally been killed by an alliance of wolf, elf, and fae. As one evil falls, another rises in its place.

How all the characters were linked to Nolan, and all the motives they had for plotting to kill him were well written and explained, but I felt I was expecting some of the character reveals and plot points. Teacher-student romance, kissing someone you’re not supposed to be kissing, kissing someone when you’re dating someone else…it felt a little cliche. I found too many similarities between the girls from ‘Pretty Little Liars’ and the trouble that went down in that book. Unfortunately for me, it was the character arcs that let me down. I absolutely ripped through this book, I’m surprised the pages didn’t burn at the ages with the heat of my page turning. There was always just enough evidence to incriminate, but not enough to charge. I was as baffled as the girls and, sometimes, the police. I completely and honestly didn’t see the plot twist coming. Just when they were safe, something came up to keep them sweating in the limelight. When I thought the girls were going to be in serious trouble, new evidence came to light. Sara Shepard knows how to keep her readers on their toes. In one sentence: did the girls murder Nolan Hotchkiss, or not? Answer: ?(!)? Bring out the body, girls, let’s see what you’ve got. For me, this was another hit, a book I enjoyed more than PLL…but that’s probably because I loved a good murder mystery. I read ‘Pretty Little Liars’ in order to prepare myself for ‘The Perfectionists’ and get a little taste for Sara Shepard’s writing.
