WOLVES AT NIGHT BOOK REVIEW

 


                                       WOLVES AT NIGHT 

                                   Review

                           by Tamera Lawrence 


When Eleni decides to meet up with her old lover in a secret reunion, she has no idea what’s in store. She hadn’t seen Ben in years. He has never met his son. Their time together holds a special place in her heart, but there had been a horrible infraction, keeping them apart. Ben had been accused of a horrific murder. A young, beautiful woman had been tortured to death. Eleni knows her Ben would never commit such a horrible crime. Sure he was bit protective, controlling- but that was because of his love for her. If only the truth would come out and Ben could stop running.  They could be a family.

With her heart dictating her common sense, Eleni drags her young son into a cold, dark nightmare as she leaves the safety of normal society to meet Ben and opts for a cabin in the Alaskan wilds to the very cabin in which Jacob was conceived. Danger lurks all around. Wolves and the elements are just two of her horrors, as her situation only escalates when visitors arrive.

It is rare these days that a book can keep me moving through the chapters, but WOLVES AT NIGHT by Sarah McDermott Jain did exactly that. This story pulls you in even as your hating the dread in your soul. Eleni’s character is full of surprising as her survival mode kicks in.

I highly recommend this awesome read and look forward to reading more books by this talented author.

NOVEL TOURIST BOOK CLUB

 



THE NOVEL TOURISH BOOK CLUB OF PHILADELPHIA Oct 30th 2021

I was pleased to have the Novel Tourist Book Club read and review my newest book ASYLUM. This wonderful group of people came to visit  the old "Pennhurst State School & Hospital" for their history tour. Afterward, I met this group at the Spring Hollow Golf Club in Spring City for lunch and a book discussion. We had a lively talk about Pennhurst, the history as well as the ghostly happenings in some of the buildings. 

What a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon.

THE THINGS YOU FIND IN ROCKPOOLS Book Review


 



REVIEW

Billy Wheatley is not your average kid. A bit on the loner side, Billy likes to explore Silverlea beach and likes to do research on hermit-crabs at a place he calls the rock-pools. Living with his dad, Billy feels he can’t measure up to his dad’s expectations, especially when it comes to surfing. Young Billy hates the water. He has an unnatural fear of surfing, a bit of discourse between father and son. Things get stranger when a teenage girl goes missing. Billy becomes his own detective, trying to solve the case, but trouble is just around the corner as he begins pointing the finger to a suspect. Things get crazier as Billy’s dad becomes more obtrusive. As Billy unravels the mystery and gets himself into trouble with the law, Billy’s dad has a new mission – force Billy to surf and face his fears. But does Billy have a right to be afraid of the water. Things are not what they seem.

THE THINGS YOU FIND IN ROCKPOOLS by Gregg Dunnett was a good read with a few unexpected twists.

 I thoroughly enjoyed this "fishy tale."

WITCH: Book Review

Witch (Family Values Trilogy Book 0)



 Living in the vast swampland, Anne LaForest is well known with the locals, who believe her ground is infertile due to her husband’s grave on her property. Annie falls on desperate times., barely able to survive. But if that isn’t bad enough, she has a three-year-old daughter to care for. In desperation for food, Anne takes to stealing a neighbor’s vegetables. When the haughty neighbor comes knocking one day, Anne fears the worse – she’s been caught. But after the women share a cup of tea laced with that extra special ingredient, good things begin coming Anne’s way. Anne finds herself suddenly blessed with money and food. Childless, women suddenly bear fruit. People treat her with respect. But then it happens. Anne’s fame with barren women has reached outside the swamp - 

If only she didn’t open that door...

And so, it begins -  a nightmare of ill proportions.

WITCH written by Patrick Logan reminds one of a dark fairytale – one you can’t help but read. This eerie tale grabs you right from the beginning, leading you into Anne’s plight and hope for resolution. But even as you pull for Anne, you realize things are going to go south and so they do, taking all your emotions with it.

Like creepy tales – this one does the trick. I loved it.

WITCH is Available on Amazon.com

SPLIT

Movie Review: by Tamera Lawrence

Survival. There are those of us who will never encounter a terrifying life and death situation. But for those that do, one can only imagine the impact on those people’s lives. But to really understand the struggle to survive, one would have to take part in that reality. A grim perspective – indeed.
Have you ever come upon someone talking to his or herself? Then they see you and freeze. Embarrassment slips over their features. Perhaps they flush.  Or maybe they don’t care. It’s not a big deal, like singing in the shower. I have been guilty of taking to myself on occasion. I suppose there’s no shame in it. I think we’ve all done it.  

But what if you came upon someone who was not only talking to themselves but having an actual disagreement? It would be even more troubling if this person’s voice altered between identities. Then you discover there’s more than one personality lurking inside.  Maybe more. I’m sure you wouldn’t stick around to see the outcome. But what if you didn’t have a choice.

Three young women are abducted by a stranger. Terrified, they try to find a way to escape or at least survive. But to outmaneuver their capture, they must first understand what he wants from them. But how does one do that when your captor holds multiple personalities, each unique in his or her own way. But there is another personality about to reveal himself – the beast. And he is very, very, hungry.

Want to be immersed in dread? Split will leave you panting. This intense flick keeps you guessing on the outcome. It does not disappoint.

Nerve Wracking.  Those two words sum up the feeling pretty nicely. Go see it!
