My Pet Werewolf by James Kaine




Releases September 26, 2023

This story, at times, feels like a young adult horror novel, and at other times, it is an adult horror novel. I normally don’t read young adult, so there were times I was a little bored. But then something extreme happens and I love it again!

Brady and Brandi are twins who are surviving their last year of highschool. There is a lot of highschool drama in this story, but there is just as much horror going on for Brady and Brandi at home. Lies within the family, secrets that ruin relationships, and the supernatural to fix it all and make it better. 

In the beginning of the story, there is a lot of character development and setting the scene. I enjoyed getting to know the characters and grew close to Brady. It took quite a while to get to the supernatural part of the story, though. There were some sentences that just took me out of the moment in the story and a tiny little plot hole. If you can, try not to let that deter you from reading it, though. It really was a fun story. I won’t be sharing those details because they would be spoilers!

Overall, while the story is predictable, it was a satisfying story to read. If you like the extreme young adult genre (is that a thing?) then definitely give this a go. If you want something quick and slightly gory, read this. 

Thank you, James, for sending me a copy of the book. I appreciate your kindness.

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...
