In the mood for a Serial Killer Mystery ?


The Survivor. by Sean Slater
Review: The Survivor - Sean Slater- March 2011
Have you ever wondered what happens when you watch too many movies or read too many books , every now and again- I suffer from it as we start to read too much formula fiction and eventually some things just start melting into each other . For me, what drew me to this book was the fact that the Ice Hockey mask reminded me of the Friday 13th Movies starring Jason Vorhees and It got me wondering whether anyone else could see it or was it just Ive watched too many movies?.
The second thing that drew me to this book was that the main setting involved a school shooting and for some reason, I always find these tales intriguing from Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult to The Hate List by Jennifer Brown. In the Survivor, it takes a twist as Detective Jacob Striker is called down to the high school as his teenage daughter has been skipping school again. During the conversation , he hears gunshots coming from the Cafe and rushes to the scene in time to see three men in ice hockey masks gunning down students. Was this a random halloween prank or are the dead being targeted ? What happens next is a twist as one of the Killers gets away and goes on a spree to find the missing student who was supposed to be killed, the journey with Jacob Striker hot on his tail ends with Raine, Que and Jacob's daughter Courtney . Which of the three will die as only one barely makes it out alive ?
Find out all this and who is  "The Survivor" left standing?

Review: Steel Princess - Book #2 Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent - December 2019 At the end of Book #1, we were left on a cliffhanger of Elsa being pushed into the pool. At the beginning of book #2, she is saved by a newcomer to the school - Knox.  We can see some friendly flirting but nothing more going on between these two, but it riles up Aiden who still has this mindset of "if I can't have her, no-one can" especially since he is supposed to be engaged to Silver Queens. During Book #2 Elsa starts to recall some more memories and goes to Dr.Khan in hopes that he can open her Pandora's box and can restore her full memories of what happened before she was seven years old. We also catch a glimpse during this book of her past and why Aiden King's father blames her for his mother's death and why Aiden considered Elsa a ghost. I liked this book as it was more intense with Elsa's memories and past returning. In Book #2 it is revealed about he...

  Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas - October 2016 As soon as I read Bully by Penelope Douglas, I was in love with this author. So when she released a new one who had my favorite theme of penpals and that whole friend to lovers going on, I knew I had to read it. The book started out with a bit of background where we learned about how Misha and Ryen were placed together in a classroom project penpal program. The pair continues to write to each other right through the year, and then they take it to the next level and continue through the rest of their schooling. Fast forward to high school Misha is in a band and Ryen is out with her friends and they complete a scavenger hunt form. Ryen is not what Misha expected especially from her letters. Tragedy occurs, and Misha turns up at Ryen's school under a fake name. This doesn't go over too well as Ryen is nothing like her letters, in fact, she is as fake as can be and Misha aka Masen hates her, in fact, she...
