Literary journey of an office career escapee
Genavine’s life has never been easy. Not since she was sixteen and an apocalypse had turned her world upside-down.

How could young Gena... Continue Reading →
I have always thought about the horror genre as something that is focused on making readers’ spines go cold with terror and their stomachs churn with nausea.

A huge fan as I am of Kelly Miller’s work, the fact that I’ve already read the story of the angel of death coercing Mr Darcy into entertaining him as his guest at Pemberley so that he could study the mortals’ ways didn’t stop me from purchasing this book.

It’s been such a sweet, heart-fluttering experience to return to Everwood Falls. The enchanted elk with their antlers glowing in the dark – too much sugar is bad for anybody, but this is the only spoiler you are getting from me! – and carnivorous spruce trees, prone not only to looming ominously over hikers and...

Well, something doesn’t feel right here. Just a short time ago, I declared the previous book that I’d read in the Americana series to be my absolute all-time favourite. And now I loved the one I’ve just finished so much, racing through its pages like a horse set on winning Royal Ascot, laughing and crying... Continue Reading →
