October Book Review 1: "The Weight of Blood" by Tiffany D. Jackson
Why not start the spooky season off with a horror book review? Well, you got it, and you don't want to miss this review. I simply knew what I was going to rate this book and it was an easy 5 stars. I just enjoy a good horror atmosphere and sometimes retellings/adaptations too. And yes, I know that most times retellings/adaptations don't always hit that original peace of beautiful work as the classic copy does but with this book you won't be disappointed. You see this retelling is a retelling of the Stephan King's classic novel "Carrie". So yes, you won't be let down with this one.

Book Review: House of Salt and Sorrows
When I tell you that this book had me gripped from the first page, I'm being totally serious. I read a lot, and there are many books that I read the first chapters of and just put down forever. I was so in love with the characters, the fantasy aspect, the murder! The banter between characters, the hopeless romantics that all the sisters are, and the charm and brazenness of the family. It had my attention for an entire week. I can crack through a book in a few hours if I want to, but this one I decided to savor. I read a chapter every night and had to will myself to wait.

Book Review: Omen of Ice
I got this book as part of my Owlcrate Box for August 2023 "Through the Seasons" monthly box. It was a beautiful book with a custom cover and blue-dusted edges. In the past this was not something Owlcrate did, but in the last couple of years, they have really started doing custom covers, sprayed and flourished edges, fully custom hardcovers underneath custom dust covers, and included author's letters inside the books.
