Looking for a supernatural read ? Something to inspire you about the Afterlife ?
Today's VBT# is author Terri Bruce and her new book "Hereafter" , here today on The Phantom Paragrapher.
Review: Hereafter - Terri Bruce - August  2012
This is one of those books where I first fell in love with the cover as I admit , I Paula Phillips am a book cover junkie . I am a sucker for the cover of books and fall into more often than not the cliche of Don't Judge a book by it's cover as I do. Sometimes it doesn't pay off and the book ends up BORING as a few I have read or tried to read but other times it is not only an amazing cover but also an amazing book like Terri Bruce's new novel "Hereafter".
Ever thought that dying would be awful , it's like that once you are dead you can no longer have fun , sleep around and have a good time if that's what you do etc . For me , I am so hoping that there is a great afterlife as it would be boring to think Oh, after I die Im just going to spend the rest of my life buried in the ground with insects eating at my body :P.
In Hereafter , we meet main character Irene who after a night of bar-hopping with her friends , hops in her car and ends up well .... DEAD . But instead of all the crossing to the otherside like where read in books and watch on TV shows like Medium and The Ghost Whisperer . Irene ends up as what Melinda Gordon on Ghost Whisperer would call - an Earthbound ghost. Though Irene is about to discover that being a ghost and stuck on earth is no fun as she cant do anything that she did when she was alive on earth and to make matters worse , the only person who can see her - isn't even a hot guy , it's a geeky fourteen year old genius who is obsessed with Ghosts and the Afterlife.  Can Jonah , the kid get Irene to the afterlife or will she find herself stuck on Earth forever and with only Jonah's company ?
A fun and enjoyable novel ,  for those who love the feisty heroine that we often read in Paranormal and Supernatural Fantasy novels will love Irene and the flavour that Terri Bruce has given her.

Review: Steel Princess - Rina Kent

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
