Maggots Screaming
By Max Booth III
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
THE FAMILY THAT DECAYS TOGETHER, STAYS TOGETHER
On a hot summer weekend in San Antonio, Texas, a father and son bond after discovering three impossible corpses buried in their back yard.
This book had me thinking about it even when I wasn’t reading it, to the point I’ve talked my husband into reading it and he doesn’t read. I’ve given it the full 5 stars simply because my god this had me never wanting to dig up the garden and to never watch the Simpsons again in the same way. The writing was so good it had my skin itching and crawling, I now have a new phobia decomposing while alive. It’s super graphic but put in a way that you actually feel it happening to this family. So entertaining but don’t read while eating or if you have a weak stomach!!
I received a review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Clair (5 KP) rated My Sister's Bones in Books
Sep 29, 2017
Kate Rafter is a journalist who works in some of worst places in the world, seeing some of the world's worst atrocities. She returns home on the death of her mother. Her sister Sally has never left Herne Bay and is an alcoholic, who hates Kate. The book is split between the main events of the story and scenes in a police station where Kate is being assessed on her mental health. We know that Kate keeps hearing and seeing a young boy in the family garden - but her experiences in Syria which have left her traumatised means that no one believes her.
Marketed as a rival to The Girl on the Train (I wish they wouldn't do that), I enjoyed this book and would ideally have given it 3.5 stars.
Negatives first...I didn't think it was that well written, there were plot holes that annoyed me and I found the characters one dimensional.
BUT the story was fast moving and intriguing and then there is a major twist which I didn't see coming which made me gasp.
Paige (277 KP) rated Plant Nanny in Apps
Nov 24, 2018 (Updated Nov 24, 2018)
Plant Nanny is an innovative app that contributes towards incentivising water consumption, sequentially promoting good health. As inferred by Healthline, sufficient water consumption can contribute towards enhancing energy levels and brain function, or preventing and treating headaches, indicative of the prospective health benefits associated with sufficient water consumption.
To elaborate on my prior inference, Plant Nanny is also an exceptional app attributable to its user interface, which is user-friendly to a considerable extent. This contributes further towards incentivising the continuous use of this app.
However, to deliberate the negative aspects of Plant Nanny, which are minimal, it takes an approximate 5 days to level up your plant, which grows at each level, until level 5, from which the plant is then placed in a garden and a new plant can be selected and henceforth.
To conclude, Plant Nanny, an innovative app, is highly recommended to a considerable extent attributable to its ability to incentivise water consumption which is often overlooked, sequentially contributing towards promoting good health.
