Review: Sister, Maiden, Monster by Lucy A. Snyder

Review: Your Turn To Suffer by Tim Waggoner
Your turn to suffer is the kind of book some people will hate, and others will love. As a reviewer, I go beyond just the overall story; I look at structure, characters, style and the overall plot.

The overall story wasn’t my typical go-to genre, however I loved everything else about it.
