If you haven't read The Eighth Day, stop reading and see my review. This may give away details of the first book. I loved this series. Unknown to "normals," there is an eighth day between Wednesday and Thursday called Grunsday. The people that know about this day are descended from King Arthur, Me...
The eighth day was filled with horrible people who blew up entire families during engagement parties, used blood for magic, and imprisoned a teenage girl just because her ten-times-great-grandfather had been a legendary wizard. -- Chapter 17 This book. Wow. I really enjoyed it and I'm excited t...
The Caged Graves really grabbed me from the very beginning. It was not as creepy as the description made it sound, but that was ok with me. There was a mystery to figure out and while I figured most of it out pretty early on I still enjoyed reading this. The book is meticulously researched. The time...
3 to 3.5 starsI enjoyed The Caged Graves but it didn't grip me enough to warrant a greater rating. I really enjoyed that the author took two genuine graves that locals know surprisingly nothing about and created her own story (even using the accurate names). I did enjoy the mystery Salerni created ...
"A love triangle and you gave it 4 stars?" But there is a reason for it, so for all of you who are weary of reading this book because of the dreaded love triangle, please don't be!

This is the second book set in the 19th century I've read in as many days, but with drastically different results. You see, this book is good. The setting is authentic. The mystery is compelling (althou...
The Caged Graves was one of the Cybils books that I had heard some buzz about before I read it. This turned out to be because it’s a really nice book, full of rich historical detail and nice characters. Although there’s a flashback/prologue at the beginning, the story really opens with Verity Boon...
My Thoughts - 4 out of 5 unicorns - I really liked it!!**Received the ebook as part of the tour for an honest reviewThe cover is beautiful and alludes to usual superstitions with cats, the moon, and the number 13. I think it is a very fitting cover even if the stories do not revolve around those pa...
Review: I absolutely loved this book. It is a small story, one that doesn't take on the end of the world, or some monumentally epic adventure, or anything of the sort. It is about a girl - Verity Boone - who returns to her hometown of Catawissa, PA fifteen years after the death of her mother, Sa...
