Of Mice and Wolfmen by Joe Pasquale




Joe Pasquale has given us twelve amazing short stories that are a blast to read. There are so many with twists at the end I didn't see coming. It was usually just the last sentence or two that just threw me for a loop! I enjoyed every single story in this collection, I am ready to read some more!


The Umpire Strikes Back. A hilarious dark story about the afterlife of a man killed. This is a freaking amazing story. It has a major plot twist. I can’t figure out how Pasquale came up with that ending!


The Underwearwolf. Another story with an amazing plot twist at the end. A guy goes to see a new therapist because he thinks he is a werewolf. 


The After Effects of Love. This is a story about the first humans to give the coronavirus vaccination a try. Epic conclusion.


Abracadaver. This story is more mellow than most in the collection, but just as enjoyable. It’s about the afterlife and Houdini.


Granpire. Can vampires have babies? Read this and find out. 


No Regrets. This was a fabulous story. A wicked revenge story


The Spinster. Speed dating gone wrong!! Ha! I will never do one of these.


Annus Horribilis. (The name of these stories, right??) Nostradamus’ prediction of our future!


The Living Room. Literally a fantastic story. A husband in mourning is approached by a weird guy and talks about death.


Pussy Cat, Pussy Cat, Where Have You Been? An unusual story about the circle of life.


The Curse of Draclia. No, not Dracula, but Draclia. Draclia isn’t getting the life he wants. He decides to let it all go. 


Velvet Elvis. Elvis lives!! Or does he? Very entertaining story to end the book. 


Joe Pasquale is quite entertaining with his stories. I can imagine having him at the party and having everyone laughing in no time. Only to come back with a plot twist in his stories that will have everyone asking “how?” How did you come up with these, Joe?

Intergalactic Exterminators, Inc by Ash Bishop

  Thank you to #NetGalley, #AshBishop, and #VictoryEditing for letting me read and review #IntergalacticExterminatorInc.  Russ and Nina are in need of some financial help and a break from the stress of just trying to live a regular life. Then one day, Russ finds a rare gem in his late grandfather’s book shop. He asks his grandmother about the stone, and she does not know anything about it. She tells Russ to take it to Nina, who might know what it is. Only, Nina has no clue, as well. Thus begins a story unlike any Earthling could imagine. This story gave me many Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy vibes. There is planetary traveling, portals, humor, odd creatures, witty banter and a smidgeon of romance.  If you enjoy the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and need something similar, I highly recommend Intergalactic Exterminators, Inc. There is so much potential for more of this story, I am hoping for a series. I would love to learn more about the Intergalactic Exterminators cre...

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...

  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! Lulu Mayo teaches us how to draw some of the cutest little cat things. It starts out with a section of using a color wheel. I love the title of one of them "Pawsitively Pretty Pastels". 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!
