Everyone who knows me knows that I am obsessed with anything by Karina Halle, and Donners of the Dead is no exception. This book has everything- a main character who is very likable, a love interest that is rugged and manly and sexy as hell, and horrifying zombies! Eve doesn't seem to fit in anywh...
Karina Halle has a knack for knowing how to creep me the hell out when reading one of her books. The foreshadowing had me on edge, the romance squealing and it made for a unputdownable read! “Sometimes the truth is more gruesome than fiction.” ____________________________________________ ♦...
My second book from Karina Halle, and it was less creepy than The Devil’s Metal despite the man-eating zombies premise. It was a decent book for the mostly, only a tad unbelievable at some parts, but I’ll excuse that. The romance was not as exciting as I thought it would be though. Given that these ...
Apparently history class in Canada is lacking. I had never heard about the Donner Party so I went into this book with an open mind. It's probably a good thing. Donners of the Dead is one spooky book. Donners of the Dead is loosely based upon the events of the Donner Party who in the mid-19th cen...

Save us from deus ex fucking machina. This is not a bad book at all. It had its very creepy moments, and I enjoyed it for an e...

This is a book I thought would be better than it was. The premise of the book sounded great. A group of people out on a quest, a bit romance and some monsters. It wasn't bad, don't take me wrong, a solid 3 star rating right through, and that's was my problem, I thought it would be much better. The c...
***This review has also been posted on Tangled in Pages A while ago, for a Top Ten Tuesday post, we were asked to list the top 10 books we wished would exist. One of the things I wanted more of was a historical romance book that wasn’t set in England or Europe for that matter so you can imagine w...
