Terror in a Small Town
Michael Jecks: The Malice of Unnatural Death
I’ve been a fan of Michael Jecks’s Knights Templar series for a number of years now, and although he pretty much grabbed me with the opening scene of that series’s very first book (and never mind that that particular book did come across as more of a typical “early” book later on), I keep enjoying […]

Halloween Bingo 2019 PreParty — Question for 08/08 (Day 8): Favorite Past Halloween Bingo Squares?
Being more of a mystery than a horror reader, of course I like all of the mystery squares — as well as the squares adding diversity to the game (“Diverse Authors”, “Terrifying Women”, and the new “International Women of Mystery”) and the squares that allow me to sneak in a Terry Pratchett book or three […]

Joy Ellis: Their Lost Daughters
Why, oh why did anybody think that this book’s title (!!) needed an appendage such as “a gripping crime thriller with a huge twist” on Amazon (and likely thus also on every other site that draws its feed from Amazon and where there aren’t any librarians to do away with this sort of nonsense) in […]

REBLOG — UPDATED: Halloween Bingo Lists by square
Reblogged from: Murder by Death I posted a few days ago about the lists from last year, but I’ve since created lists for the new squares and I figured it would just be easier to re-do the post from scratch, using the list of squares Moonlight Reader posted in her game announcement. So by […]

REBLOG: Halloween Bingo Lists
Reblogged from: Murder by Death For last year’s (Inaugural) Halloween Bingo, many of the participants contributed to lists by square, as a resource for anyone struggling to find books that fit. This year, several of the squares/categories are similar to last year’s, so I thought I’d post them here again. These lists can definitely be […]

Halloween Bingo 2017: My Reading Pool / Shortlist — and My Bingo Marker!
Aaaargh … decisions, decisions. Ask a Libra to make a snap decision, and you’ll be waiting ’till doomsday. So, in true Libra style, I haven’t managed to narrow my list down to a single book for most of my card’s squares yet — but I’ve at least come up with a pool from which to […]
