Review: Killer Potential - Hannah Deitch - March 2025

It’s equal parts murder mystery, romantic suspense, and biting social commentary—all wrapped up in a sharp, unforgettable narrative.

The story kicks off with Evie Gordon, a scholarship kid who’s done everything right but still finds herself treading water post-college, drowning in student debt and tutoring the super-rich SAT crowd in Beverly Hills. Evie’s mundane routine is upended when she stumbles into a crime scene at the Victors’ estate: the parents are brutally murdered, and their blood-spattered mansion hides a bound woman Jae crying out for help. Without a second thought, Evie rescues the stranger, only for the two of them to be spotted and mistaken for the perpetrators. In a flash, Evie and her new companion—a mysterious, near-silent woman—are thrust into the spotlight as the prime suspects in a case gripping the nation.

Evie’s transformation from anonymous tutor to notorious fugitive is a wild ride. One moment she’s a nobody, the next she’s being labeled the next Charles Manson.

There’s dark humor sprinkled in the tensest moments, romantic tension that crackles between Evie and her mysterious accomplice, and layers of suspense that keep you glued to the pages. The LGBTQA+ representation is seamlessly woven into the narrative, and the slow-burning bond between the two women adds emotional depth to the pulse-pounding plot.

Killer Potential is a thrilling exploration of ambition, privilege, and the lengths we’ll go to in the name of survival. Hilarious, heart-pounding, and unflinchingly bold, this one deserves a spot on your shelf. A new adult thriller with a razor-sharp edge!

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...
