ARC Review: Killer House Party

 I received an ARC of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. This did not affect my opinion of the book or my review itself. 

The Deinhart Manor has been looming over the town, full of rumors and eerie legends. Arden’s parents now own the manor as part of their real estate business, which means Arden can finally let loose and throw the biggest party the teens in town have ever been to. Which is going great…until the walls start to bleed.

This was a creepy book, perfect for spooky season. The manor is scaarrryyy, not just the blood from the walls, but all the other things it can do. Once the blood appears, the book does not let up. I would recommend this book.

ARC Review: The Serial Killer Guide to San Francisco

 I received an ARC of this book from the publisher and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. This did not affect my opinion of the book or my review itself.

The star of this book is Capri, who not only gives tours about serial killers around San Francisco, but is also the granddaughter of a supposed serial killer. So when murders start in San Francisco, murders that are copies of her grandfather’s crimes, Capri is immediately drawn in. This becomes especially true when Capri’s former mother-in-law is the next victim, and Capri and her daughter are the prime suspects.

This was a fun read. The mystery was a good one, with some well-executed twists, especially the dual big reveals at the end. I really enjoyed the little sprinklings of the tours throughout the story, as well as the mystery from the past with Capri’s grandfather. There is even a little hint of romance as well. I would recommend this book.
