If I Were A Carpenter…
It has been an age since I wrote a “blog”. An entire age of Middle Earth no less! Last time I wrote a blog Feanor was still in exile. Well, time to tap the keys once more. As I have written, the song “Rasputin” by Boney M is in my Top 5 of all time. I gathered as many covers as I could and wrote a blog. Please seek it out. Your life will be all the better for it.
And today I bring you another of my

A good review. I agree that the horror elements were great, the character dynamics not my cup of tea. As noted in my review, I was rooting for April!

"“The Shuddering” by Ania Ahlborn started out red-hot right out the gate which always makes me happy as a reader. I love horror and at first, I started to enjoy the characters and the suspense that came with what exactly was going on. Ahlborn does a n"

| This book would make a very decent horror flick, I believe. There's some real tension in the build-up, despite us knowing from the beginning the kind of threat that is out there. The setting (snow and dense trees) where shadows shift makes for creepy ...more | |

| Surprised to find this was a debut. Very well written with good pacing, setting and tension building. There was a good mix of quirky horror (reminded me The Wicker Man), outright gore (author grew up in the 80s maybe??), and unsettling fear. A couple ...more | |

Finishing this book was like coming home after a journey away - I feel like I've lived in the marsh with Kya. In those pages, I watched her grow, felt her pain and rare moments of joy, and imagined a world I have never seen. Beautiful, mournful, soul- ...more |

"My little space-loving heart couldn't handle this book... it has all the wonderful aspects of The Martian but with ROCKY. Lord. Rocky. I don't think I've loved a character like this in ages. If you know, you know.
Lots of nerd science and dad jokes, " Read more of this review » |

“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
