Meyer does it again with this prequel to her popular Lunar Chronicles series. Fairest is technically a prequel as it sets up events years before Cinder but it was released between Cress and Winter. But since it’s such a stand-alone you can read it before, after or in between. The main point is to give…

Insomnia by Sarah Pinborough I figured I should have just one more spooky book to close out Halloween. Well technically it’s more thriller than horror but it has several hallmarks such as crazy killers, superatural threat and the prevailing theme that seeps through ever horror and thriller, who can you trust and can you ever…

Meyer creates a spooky horror atmosphere in her sophmore adventure of The Lunar Chronicles that continues the adventures of fugitive Cinder and takes on the Red Riding Hood tale.
