Review: Marla by Jonathan Janz
Synopsis: From beloved horror author Jonathan Janz, Marla is a slow-burn, full-throttle horror novel about the families we inherit, the guilt we carry, and the terrible gravity of a gaze you can’t forget.

Review: Home Sick by Rhiannon Grist
Home Sick is an interesting time to say the least, with Grist’s ability to render atmosphere doing a lot of the heavy lifting but not only. For, even though this is not your typical haunted house – the tagline of the book is after all “The house isn’t haunted. She is” – the claustrophobia is real. Except, instead of the physical walls of a building closing in on you, it is the metaphorical walls of the protagonist’s stream of consciousness-like narration that makes you feel short of breath.

Review: House of the Dragon season 3
“It feels a lot like empty spectacle.” House of the Dragon Season Three was a controversial subject among Game of Thrones and A Song of Ice and Fire fans even before it was released because George R.R. Martin wrote a blog post criticizing the changes that showrunner Ryan Condall made to the story described in […]
Review: Valor (The Faithful and the Fallen #2) by John Gwynne
