You will find that in previous reviews I have of Claire Contreras books that I go on and on in the beginning about how great she is, how much I adore her and her writing. Like, she is also super pretty and so talented and kind…. and eventually someone is going to get sick of […]

[Emily’s Review]: Mad World by Hannah McBride
I’m Madison.
I spent the last seventeen years in a trailer with my mom as she rolled from one addiction to the next. All I wanted was to survive high school and get out of this place. Finding out I had a long lost twin sister on the other side of the country seemed like something out of a movie.
Too bad I didn’t realize it was a horror movie.
Now I’m Madelaine.
We were only supposed to switch lives for a summer. But then the unthinkable happened and now I have the chance to be my twin for the rest of my life. I get the fancy house, the rich father, and the elite school.
But all of those things come with a price I don’t think I can afford.
Maybe taking over my dead twin sister’s life isn’t as easy as I thought it would be.
Mad World is the first book in a new series by Hannah McBride . It contains dark themes (including bullying, drugs, and mentions of past/implied assault) that may be triggering for some readers.
[Diane’s Review]: The Last Beautiful Girl by Nina Laurin
Perfect for fans of Black Mirror! What starts out as your typical “teenage girl moves to a new town outside of the city” quickly morphs into a suspenseful story of social media and the unceasing urge to remain relevant. The Last Beautiful Girl accurately depicts the struggle of competing for popularity and individuality in a […]
[Emily’s Review]: The Girl in the Headlines by Hannah Jayne
The first page, heck the first chapter of this book was super intense. WHAT A HOOK! I was somewhat let down after that first chapter. The Girl in the Headlines had so so so much potential. The blurb sounds like a true crime lover’s dream. But actually it was a true crime lover’s nightmare. There […]
[Portia’s Review]: Twisted Circles (Secret Society #2) by Claire Contreras
Again, actual footage of me when Claire announced a 2nd book with Secret Societies (this is a throwback to my original review of the first book in the series, Half Truths <- click to read) : I could start this post off by raving about how amazing and wonderful and talented and pretty Claire Contreras […]
[Portia’s Review]: The Wives by Tarryn Fisher
The final book of the year for me in 2019 was The Wives by Tarryn Fisher. I really have a love/hate relationship with her books. Well, I guess I dont entirely HATE any of them, but some are just… meh, for me (Mud Vein is still my fave by her). So because of the back […]
[Bre’s Review]: Gypsy King by Devney Perry
“I’d been waiting for my Gypsy King.” This story is the perfect mixture of small town and motorcycle club romance that will get your heart pumping and melt it on the same page. In one book, Devney gives us murder and secrets alongside family and loyalty. What else could you want? I’ve been waiting for […]
Half Truths by Claire Contreras
Actual footage of me when Claire announced a book with Secret Societies: I know I go on and on about how amazing Claire Contreras is every time she release a new book, and I’m not going to stop now. I was SO FREAKING EXCITED to get my hands on this, and once I had it […]
