Are you on the lookout for a good mystery novel ? Have you had the opportunity to read "Envy" by Gregg Olsen - also reviewed on the Phantom Paragrapher?
If so, get set for Book #2 in the series Empty Coffins :
Review: Betrayal - Book #2 Empty Coffins Series - Gregg Olsen - September 2012
Gone are the joys of a quiet community where nothing happens as it seems that Death is upon this small community. Back are the Ryan twins - Hayley and Taylor and with them comes their gifts and knack at solving incidents. Moving closer to the truth of what they can do and all about it, it leads them to a shoebox in their mothers wardrobe - a box filled with newpaper clippings from the Bus Crash - which will be revealed if the crash was an accident or something more sinister ? In the box , they also find clippings of a young girl named Valerie who went missing from the Prison, during an electrical fault. Who is this girl and how is she connected to the Ryan family ?
In other news, murder and death has struck this comuunity once again and this time the victim is an exchange student from the UK - Olivia . Was Olivia the intended victim or was it a case of mistaken identity ? If Olivia , wasn't the target then is somebody out there waiting to be slaughtered next ? Who killed Olivia and why - was it Bree and her boyfriend Darren ?  With their spidey instincts tingling and random texts - it now looks like its up to the Ryan twins to once again solve the day and make it look like the police have done their work using their excellent investigation skills.
Once again, another amazing book and I look forward to reading more in the Empty Coffins series as they are released.

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.

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...
