Sawbones
by Melissa Lenhardt
"SAWBONES is a gritty and intriguing Western"
Posted June 15, 2017
I have to admit that I was actually a bit stunned on how

by Amanda Quick
"A murder mystery story set in the 30s California among the stars of Hollywood!"
Posted June 4, 2017
I have to admit that I'm quite besotted with this cover.
I like how different it is, the crisscrossing of colorful
squares over the image of the girl and I love the
combination of the colors. Now, you should not choose a
book just because of the cover, but Read more...

I have never read a story by H. P. Lovecraft. However, I
