A Vow For Breaking by L.M. Riviere
"It's a brilliant book – I devoured it (pun intended) – and I particularly loved the black, dark, humour. Sloane reminded me of Shirley Jackson’s Merricat; Sloane too thrives on isolation; coming from a dysfunctional family, she is sent to the Magdale" Read more of this review »

A Vow For Breaking by L.M. Riviere
"This was such a cool spooky tale that really ramps up as you read until I could not put it down when I hit the second half. It hit all the right notes for me and there are some scenes that will live in my head for a long time. Definitely recommend. "
