A Supernatural Urban Fantasy 

Looking through the upcoming releases on Goodreads a couple of days ago, I stumbled upon this book for the first time. I can tell you it’s rare I get chills from the blurb alone but this one had my heart race in nervous anticipation. You have to agree that this sounds scary!! After that I checked out the author’s Facebook page and saw she describes this book as “A supernatural horror novel about two teens surviving the end of times.” which piques my interest even moreso. If you know me, you know I love my horror and suspense, so this is definitely right up my alley!

What’s are you waiting on?
Leave me a link I’ll go visit! =)

    Certainly sounds fresh and original. I always love discovering new books. I love it even more when they’re good, though, so I hope this one goes well for you when you get the chance to read it.

    Wow what a fabulous choice for you Waiting on Wednesday!! It sounds super suspenseful! I don’t read a lot of horror novels but I will definitely have to give this one a try 🙂 Thanks for sharing!

    Wow, this one definitely sounds creepy. I’d probably pass out from fear if I ever got a message like that being a wimp of rather epic proportions. This one is new to me, thanks for featuring it Giselle!

    It does sound rather scary!! And the 666 in the eye on the cover??? Equally as scary! Perhaps a hint as to what’s inside the story?? Great pick!! Adding this to my TBR list right now! 🙂

    I absolutely love how the summary is laid out. That’s probably one of the most creative ways to hook a reader. Great pick, Giselle!

  42. Books And Beyond

    This book looks gr8. I love books like this too.
    U know whats kinda cool? I also said my WOW was “right up my alley” this week. It was kinda neat to see someone use that expression in their WOW post..I know I am corny huh? lolz.

    I was wondering if you could recommend a good place to see upcoming book releases? Is there a 1 stop shop or a few good thorough sites I can go to? I have a heckuva time finding upcoming releases sometimes.

    Have a wonderful night 🙂
