Amazing Paranormal Fantasy Book!
I can't express how amazing this story is. The author does a fantastic job bringing her characters to life and you truly feel that you are a part of the story. If you enjoy anything involving the paranormal, karmic debt, reincarnation, or just an amazing story with some shocking surprises then you must read this book. I really enjoyed learning more about the spiritual realm and the author does a fantastic job of incorporating the information and including it into the overall story to make it interesting. Be prepared to read the entire story in one sitting, with all the twists and turns you won't want to put this one down.

This is a really good paranormal read full of action and many twists and turns. A great beginning for a new series.

I really enjoyed this start to the series. I love mermaids so that's a plus. The beginning was a little slow but picked up very quickly. I loved all the twists and characters. She wasn't your typical mermaid which I also loved. I enjoyed the mystery mixed with paranormal. Very enjoyable, can't wait to read the next.

This was an amazing steampunk paranormal adventure with a goodbit of romance thrown in. The characters were well developed and just got better as the story went. The action just kept moving with twists and turns. My only complaint was there was no falling action. It went from climax to resolution. Otherwise it was a magnificant read.

[Beyond the Fortuneteller's Tent] by [Kristy Tate] was a great twist on YA romance. It involves time travel and finding your true love. The adventures and twists make this story different than your typical YA paranormal romance (a genre too filled with vampires).
I compared it to the [Outlander] series but PG because I would be disturbed to see my students reading [Galbadon] but would gladly recommend the [Beyond] books.

Slightly disappointing ending
Lake Mungo delivers some eerieness but outstays its welcome
Contains spoilers, click to show
Lake Mungo is a found footage/documentary style hybrid horror movie that tells the story of a family whose 16 year old daughter drowns, but then continues to appear to her family and in footage and photographs in the local area.
Without wanting to spoiler anything, I will just say that the director manages to create a quite unsettling atmosphere, almost akin to that created in the first 3 paranormal activity movies, using CCTV footage and phone camera footage to add to the eye witness statements and interviews with the family.
The film is a little longer than it needs to be, the last section felt like it began detracting from the earlier scenes as they add a few last twists, but overall it is a well made film, with a strong sense of unease throughout.
Well worth a look if you like Paranormal Activity, and that style of film.

fantastic read
A quick amazing read by this author. This book is exhilarating, steamy, action packed with some paranormal elements thrown in. The characters were really well written with amazing hot chemistry between them. The story flows perfectly with a few twists and turns. This maybe a quick read but its definitely worth the time. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.
Highly recommended read
I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book

This is a light-hearted story about magic with a side interest of romance. The story and relationships in the book flow very naturally but don't expect everything to be straightforward! There are some twists and turns in this book, some that are explained and some that aren't. This book drew me in from the start and the time passed very quickly whilst I was reading it. Very enjoyable both as Young Adult and as a Paranormal. Further books in this series are now on my wish list.

Gripping horror/thriller that is a story in 2 parts
This film starts off as a paranormal horror film, a family apparently being haunted by strange forces, but suddenly turns completely around into something much more realistic, though still thrilling.
No spoilers given, but I loved the sudden twist and the "aaaaah" moment where the viewer realises what has been happening, as the first half is re-told from a different perspective.
The film builds to a gripping conclusion and has several more twists and surprises along the way, keeping the viewer guessing.
One gripe is the music - loud blaring horn used to build up tension becomes very annoying very quickly.

Lindsay (1732 KP) rated Ghost Moon in Books
Jul 28, 2020
Ghost Moon is something different. Though not by ghosts or paranormal. Just different in a way that it tells a story but given that it more mystery and romance than paranormal. The title does not give away much about what this book is about.
We meet Lark as she is driving to the new place that she inherited. When she arrives she sees someone in the front window. Things get even more interesting and enjoyable once she comes goes into the house. Her cat is my favorite. How he reacts is funny. I guess if your pet is acting weird you might want to think about it. They seem to be able to sense something or someone.
Kathryn Knight writes a well-written story. Though it seems this one was very heavy in the romance department. He also meets Jesse Holt. What is happening at Holloway House seems to affect Jesse neighbor Lark. He meets him and he comes to Lark recuse the first night. He offers to talk to his mother and her friends to find out who this ghost is.
If you enjoy ghost or ghost stories, this one is good. It seems it should be ghost mystery or at least paranormal mystery. This is good for fans of mystery and or romance as well. My favorite part is the paranormal which is the ghost in it. Why I do not know, could be that I want to know what happens to the ghost and why she there. There are many twists and turns throughout. You will be trying to guess along the way as to what happens and what does this ghost want until the end.
