Mistress of all evil book review read November 2022
Title: Mistress of all evil
Auther: Serena Valentino
Number of pages: 320
Genre:
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This Disney Villans series is one of my absolute favorites! You get a deep dive into each Villans past and get an understanding as to why they become so evil. You really start to feel bad for them. In Mistress of all evil, we learn about Maleficent's past, who as a small child was outcasted by all of the other Faires in the kingdom because of her horns and green skin, with no one to confide in but the crows and ravens that found her as a baby abandoned only to be found by a fairy named Nanny who took her under her wing as a daughter. Even under Nannys care Maleficent is still outcasted and treated like a monster and never the fairy she is. The treatment of the other fairies despite all the love she was giving from Nanny, causes her to become something she never meant to be. This is the fourth book in the series, and I'll be honest I didn't read them in order at first, π so this was the third book I read out of the series "The beast within" being the first and "Poor unfortunate souls" being the second book I read a few years ago. I didn't know, I thought it was like the twisted tale's series (I'll be reading those soon π) where they are not serializing.
Pros: Well written, goes well with the movie.
Cons: Felt like there could have been just a tad bit more details.
Recommended to: Disney and fairy tale fans
Fairest of them all book review read in November 2022
Title: Fairest of them all
Author: Serena Valentino
Number of pages:256
Genre: Teen and young adult fantasy/Fairy tale/Folklore
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
In Fairest of them all we get a glimpse of the evil queens past. We read about how wonderful the queen first was to everyone around her especially Snow White who is a child for most of the book. We learn how happy she was to have a family and in love she was when she first married the king, but we soon find out how tragic things truly become when the king goes over seas to battle with his men but does not return. π’ While grieving she loses the bonds she had with Snow White and those around her in the castle by keeping to herself in her bedroom day after day, and after given a certain gift by the cousins of the king who she had banished for doing something horrible to Snow, things get out of terrible out of hand for the queen who was manipulated and couldn't control herself anymore feeling like she is losing not only her mind but herself. This is the first book of the villain's series, I love how wonderfully written it is, the era, the way the characters speak to each other, you really get an understanding of why the queen becomes so evil it's not some sloppy writing story that doesn't make sense or didn't work with the movies we know and love. I honestly hope Serena Valentino writes about all the Villans! π
Pros: Beautifully written
Cons: Too short! (More of an opinion then a con, I couldn't find anything I disliked about it)
Recommended to: Disney, fantasy and fairy tale's lovers.

Diary of A Haunting book review. Read October 2022
Title: Diary of A Haunting
Author: M. Verano
Number of pages: 336
Genre: Teen and young adult supernatural/mystery/thriller
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
I can honestly say I liked this book a lot...until the end. π Written in an online journal format, Paige talks about her day-by-day experiences in her new home, an old mansion in Idaho, which is a big change from LA. Paige starts to realize that things are going missing and when they return, they come duplicated, she also starts to witness her younger brother Logan behaving oddly, not to mention the spiders and flies, and to top it all off, their neighbor who lives in the basement acts really weird like he is hiding something, as if he knows something about the house, but when Pages asks him questions he doesn't answer any of them, and when he did tell her things it left her with more questions than answers...Kinda like me. I found the ending super confusing, π I just had so many more questions. I understood what was happening, but I felt like I was missing something, I did like the plot a lot in this one, it has enough spooky parts, left me really guessing. If I'm not mistaken there are two other books, But I don't think they have anything to do with this book. I will be reading them when I get a chance, when I do, I'll make sure to review them. π
Pros: Great story plot.
Cons: Leaves you with questions.
Recommended to: Those who like a typical haunting story.
Escape Room book review. Read October 2022
Title: Escape Room
Author: Maren Stoffels
Number of pages: 224
Genre: Teen and Young adult mystery/thriller/suspense
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐
We all love a great escape room, especially when you pay for a real experience, but what if the experience IS real? When sky invites his friends Alissa, Mint and Miles to one, they didn't expect much. They figured they would simply be figuring out a few puzzles and find a few clues to unlock the room in 60 minutes and they would be out and done with it. Sounded simple enough. But when they start to really listen to recordings that were meant to be clues playing on the speakers, they realize the recordings tell a story of someone who wants revenge. When the game becomes too real after someone gets hurt, they begin fighting their way to the finish, fighting for their very life's. π± I've done an escape room once and I really enjoyed it, so I figured I would like this book, and I wasn't wrong. Oh, though I did think it could have used some more action, and it dragged a bit at first, π I thought this book was also pretty well written, it did keep me reading. I liked the plot, I also like the characters and there were a few things I didn't expect to happen. I wouldn't say it was scary, but it was suspenseful. Oh, though I predicted the twist halfway π
Pros: Good plot with good characters.
Cons: Drags at first a little, lack of action.
Recommended to: Anyone who likes escape rooms and a good suspenseful thriller.

Horror Hotel book review. Read October 2022.
Title: Horror hotel
Author: Victoria Fulton & Faith McClaren
Number of pages: 256
Genre: Teen and young adult thriller/fantasy/suspense/supernatural mystery
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Do you believe in Spirts? Do you think they walk among us? What if you were the only one to see them? Well, all I got to say is I personally wouldn't want to see anything like what Chrissy saw! Chrissy is our main character who along with her friends Case, Kiki, and Emma have a YouTube famous Ghost hunting group called Ghost Gang. But while Case is the money, Emma is the tech, and Kiki is the smooth talker, Chrissy is the one who can see the dead, so when they decide to do a live stream of them investigating a hotel where a young girl who was traveling on her own was found in a water tank on the roof a few years back, Chrissy's anxiety skyrocketed. Will she be able to handle whatever awaits them? This book has a great mystery. it has its spooky parts and a bit of a twist, but if you're anything like me you can kind of figured it out right away π Out of the 9 books I read this October I must admit that I found this one to be one of my favorites. Despite the fact that it's literally about the Cecil hotel just with all the names changed and a more modern setting. I've always been fascinated by that darn hotel and its tragic past so when I went on a hunt for horror books, I had to include something Cecil. Being that there were very little books on the topic, when I found this one, I didn't hesitate to order it! But if you're not into the whole taking a story from real life and just changing up the names things then you may find this book cheesy, especially the ending, but that's really my only complaint hence the four stars instead of five.
Pros: Great story plot, spooky
Cons: Based on the Cecil hotel so if you're not into that you won't like it.
Recommended to: Those who loves a good spooky, mystery.
