Alex North's The Whisper Man

The Whisper Man, written by Alex North was published by Celadon Books on 08/20/19. I'm just going to stop you right now and tell you to go get this book IMMEDIATELY.

When Tom Kennedy's wife dies, he believes he and his son Jake need a new start and they move to Featherbank. Featherbank is the home of a very dark past. 20 years ago, 5 young boys were abducted and murdered by a man named Frank Carter. He was nicknamed "The Whisper Man" because he would lure the boys out of their rooms at night by whispering at their windows.

After Tom and Jake move in, another little boy vanishes and the events are almost identical to those of Frank Carter. It is up to detectives Amanda Beck and Pete Willis to find the boy before it's too late, even if that means they have to confront The Whisper Man himself.

They better hurry, because Jake is starting to act strangely. He's hearing whispering at his window.....

YOU GUYS. I 👏COULD👏NOT👏PUT👏THIS👏BOOK👏DOWN👏. It was so amazing. It was thrilling and scary, everything I hoped it would be. This was definitely one of the books I wanted most out of this year, and I'm so glad it didn't disappoint.

The events in the book were so CREEPY. I know of several people who wouldn't read this at night, or alone. As for me, I took it to read in a hotel room when I was by myself in a strange city for a week. It made me so entirely uncomfortable because I felt like someone was at my door. I kept hearing whispers that weren't there.

I will probably read this book once a year because I loved it so much. I'm so happy I got the BOTM edition. If you haven't, pick it up before it sells out!

This was easily one of my top books of the year. My score should be a no-brainer.

Is One Truly the Loneliest Number?

I was given a digital copy of One? by Jennifer L. Cahill. She reached out to me through Twitter, and she was so sweet. I couldn't wait to dive into her book.💙 The Plot (From Goodreads): It's London in the mid-noughties before Facebook, iPhones and ubiquitous wifi. Zara has just moved to London for her first real job and struggles to find her feet in a big city with no instruction manual. Penelope works night and day in an investment bank with little or no time for love. At twenty-eight she is positively ancient as far as her mother is concerned and the pressure is on for her to settle down as the big 3-0 is looming. Charlie spends night and day with his band who are constantly teetering on the verge of greatness. Richard has relocated to London from his castle in Scotland in search of the one, and Alyx is barely in one place long enough to hold down a relationship let alone think about the future. One? follows the highs and lows of a group of twenty-somethings living ...

Wine or Lose by Amanda Chaperon

I was so freaking disappointed by this book. I bought the alternate covers (which are absolutely stunning) at Romance Con and I expected to read about (PER THE AUTHOR) small town charm, office rivals to lovers, and a happily ever after. Unfortunately for me, I didn’t feel like I got any of that. The first problem lies within the setup of the relationship. Amara and Cal meet in a club, fall in love after like 2 hours, and go back to his place before Amara realizes that Cal is the new CFO that her dad just hired for their family’s winery. He calls her a party princess, she storms out, and fast forward to five years later, when they’re both still holding onto that. How have you seriously not gotten over that one interaction in the span of FIVE YEARS? Second, Cal hates women. You can’t convince me otherwise. When he was trying to prevent Amara’s father from giving her the company, he ONLY talked to her father, shook his hand, and plead his case with him. He paid no attention to ...

Twisted by Emily McIntire

Man, I’m obsessed with these books. The Never After series is probably my favorite series of all time because each story is just SO 👏 GOOD 👏 This one is an Aladdin reimagining, where the Aladdin character is a whiney little bitch, the Jafar character, Julian Faraci is a snack, and poor little Yasmin Karam has no choice but to marry him and suffer under the weight of his muscles and good looks. I devoured this one. If there was one thing I could ask for in my life, it’s that Emily McIntire write more of these stories because I’m almost at the end of the series and I’m not ready. 😭 If you’re into dark romance and alternative views to the fairytales we grew up with, run, don’t walk to these. If you don’t like them, read them anyway. She just might surprise you.
