Paroxysm of Fear, Book Two by Chad Miller, Hear Our Voice LLC


 

When I think back on reading Prisoner of Fear by Chad Miller, I realize two things: One, I enjoy the light horror stories set in the 19th century; Two, I found a new favorite author that I will stalk and buy every book he writes and make him sign every single one of them (as long as my wallet says it’s okay). 


Then, Chad Miller released book two, Paroxysm of Fear, and I learned another lesson. Miller is just now getting started in what I think will be a very long productive writing career. He really kicked it up a notch on this second book. 


All those feelings from book one? They are twice as dark and devastating. There is more evil and gore in this story, and I loved every single minute absorbed in it. The format of diary entries is the exact same which makes moving from book one to book two, smooth and easy to jump right back in. You form a stronger bond with the main characters in Paroxysm of Fear, the world and scenes are vivid and clear as day, so you get to feel the emotions and fears while the story progresses. The story starts off right where the first book ended, and it just keeps rolling with punches to the gut and in the end you yell to the walls…”noooooo!!!!!”. How could you Chad?? 


Put this set on your TBR list. I want to know what you all think of the ending!!

  Thank you #NetGalley and author #LuluMayo for sending me a copy of this fantastic book 101 Super Cute Cat Things to Draw!! This is such a cute book!

From there on, the author shows up 101 ways to draw a cat. Such as a cat dragon, a mushroom cat, a cat cabbage, and cats drawn as zodiac signs! Even if you don't draw all of the cats, this is definitely a must-have for all cat lovers!

The Trunk by Mia Dalia

  This was a crazy story! It starts out smooth as molasses and then gets all twisted and dark. It’s one of those stories that escalates quickly going all outta left field. Bogdan and his wife buy their first home together and it comes with a basement… with a trunk in the basement. Nothing else is down in the basement but this weird trunk. He doesn’t think too much of it at first. Until he finally decides to open the trunk. Mia Dalia writes fantastic stories. She has quite an imagination to give her stories lots of twists and turns. She told me once that she enjoys psychology and I think she writes with that in mind. Her writing style invokes humanity’s inner demons and pushes the mind to harrowing events. If you are in the mood for a quick horror story with a psychological twist, you need to read The Trunk and Smile So Red by Mia; she will dig into your brain.

At Home with the Horrors by Sammy Scott

  This book of short stories is fabulous! I enjoyed every single story. They varied in true sense of horror, but they all had horrific endings, most you won’t see coming. What We Have Here is a heartwarming and terrifying story about a married couple who have some communication problems.  Theresa is a never ending love story. This one will stick with me for a long time.  Blackbird is when a dream becomes a nightmare.  In the short story Sisters, a daughter needs help moving her mom to a retirement home. The mom doesn’t want to leave the home she grew up in. Peeping Tommy is your average neighborhood boogeyman. Or is he…. In Becca ; Becca and Bryan need help with someone watching their house at night. He keeps standing there staring and then starts to make some noises.  Sleeptalker is an odd story about talking in your sleep. The couple use their phone to record what is being said. Re-birth is an outstanding story. I don’t want to give anything away, but the t...
