Merissa (12776 KP) rated Pyromancist (7 Forbidden Arts #1) in Books
May 20, 2023
This story starts with Clelia waking up in the woods. She is safe, as she has her wolf dogs protecting her, but she is worried that she may be the cause behind the multitude of fires that have started recently. There is a strong bond between her and Erwan, her grandfather. The story takes a twist when it is Erwan who is suspected of causing the fires. More than just the police are interested, and Erwan makes the decision that both he and Clelia are going to disappear. Clelia doesn't get very far before Josselin meets up with her, although she had already seen him, but he doesn't remember it.
This is a fast-paced action/adventure with a splash of paranormal. There is plenty of Alpha Male growling going on whenever anyone else looks at Clelia, but Josselin isn't prepared to admit his own feelings. The scenes between Clelia and Josselin are very intense, and steamy in places. The difference between Clelia and Josselin is very obvious - in the fact that Clelia has a quiet strength that grows throughout the book, but is very submissive towards Josselin himself. As for him, I personally found his possessiveness/jealousy a bit much, but Clelia seemed happy with it, so that's all good 😉
A steamy adventure with parts of paranormal, I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants a different take on action/pnr.

I cannot begin to express just how much I loved reading this book. I wasn't even halfway through it and I had already purchased the second book in this series.
This is truly a creepy read as it blends young adults, an old and abandoned asylum with portions of it turned into dorm rooms, vintage pictures and of course an eerily paranormal factor. Edge of your seat, spine tingling read that pulls you in right from the very beginning and overwhelms your senses with a strong story line, well developed characters and the world building was fantastic.
I can't wait to start reading the second book as I must say that I was completely impressed by the author's skill at storytelling and the goosebumps I got while reading this book.

Demon Kissed (Demon Kissed #1) by H.M. Ward
In this book you have the age old tale of good versus evil - angels versus demons - demons versus hunters - which ever way you want to look at it. In this they are Martis who are good, and Valefor who are bad. But then throw in a twist or two and you have a really good story.
The character development for all of them is good but I do have to say that the main female just irritated me at the beginning. She does get better as the book goes on though. The plot and storyline has a good pace to it and enough action to suit most.
Recommended for YA/Paranormal fans.

Chris Hooker (419 KP) rated Jenny Pox (The Paranormals, #1) in Books
Jan 12, 2018
[Jenny Pox]by [J.L. Bryan] is a different twist on teen paranormal. No stupid sparkly vampires here! Instead teens with special powers all in the same small town.
Jenny can kill with a touch but does her best to protect everyone even though it brings her ridicule and bullying.
Seth can heal people with his touch.
Ashley can control people with hers and she does for her own benefit.
No one knows about these powers except the person with them until an accidental encounter between Jenny and Seth. All the pieces begin to fit.
This was a really enjoyable story and the fact that the teenagers had normal teenage personalities and issues made it all the better. I look forward to reading the other books in the series.

Was better than expected
Contains spoilers, click to show
So Jamie is from a town called Raverns fair and his wife is killed by the ghost of Mary Shaw a ventriloquist who was killed by some people in the town years before Jamie was born.
As the story goes on your looking at people to suspect and up until he died I thought it was the cop, a real paranormal thriller that kept me on the edge of my seat, the ending of the film left it open for a sequel as well.
I'd love to see the producers expand more on the back story of Mary Shaw and her dolls and have someone stop her.
It was well worth watching better than the likes of the boy ect and other doll horrors.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
I loved all three of the books in this box set!
The men: Cade, Noah, and Grant are all alpha (dragon) males, and I loved them all. Cade was my favorite. He is very protective and exciting. The women: Hope, Claire, and Freya are all independent women. My favorite was Hope. Maybe because her story is with Cade!
Ridley did a great job on character and world-building. All three books flowed together well, and it was easy to fall into reading and envision her words.
I would recommend this box set to paranormal lovers. Especially if you love dragon shifters! All in all, these books are exciting and worth the read.

Intelligent conversation
Fantastic Research
Mysteries and the paranormal from around the world, from Dyatlov Pass and the Bloop to the Money Pit and the Black Monk of Pontefract. Scott and Forrest discuss the whole case, with excellent research support from the Astonishing Research Corps, and all of the possible explanations, from the very sensible to the utterly outlandish, without being judgemental, but with a healthy dose of scepticism. It can feel a bit like listening in on a conversation between two old friends, talking about the weird and wonderful backed up by a library of esoteric knowledge. With the research corps including astrophysicists and professional researchers, you can be confident that any topic has been thoroughly investigated from all angles.
A fascinating podcast, great to listen to for sceptics and believers alike.

This is the story of Caislyn and Jax, two very different women with attitude!
Jax has run away from an abusive relationship and started a new life. She considers herself wholly human in a world where the 'paranormal' exists.
Caislyn is a witch whose parents are missing and the world, including her lawyer, presume dead although she refuses to believe this.
Throw them together and what have you got? A fast-paced, punchy book that made me laugh with their humour and search along with them for answers. Vampires are "alive and kicking" in this book but are not, for once, in the hot seat but more a back seat driver which makes a nice change.
Will definitely be getting the second and third books in this series.
