The Flip by Michael Phillip Cash
By Michael Phillip Cash The Flip [Paperback] - Michael Phillip Cash

I have been dying to get to read this book. I love ghost stories, I love haunted houses, I also love history. This book had it all for me. 

 

Julie and Brad a married couple find houses fix them up and flip them. After their latest house closing Brad decides to take the scenic route home. Julie spots a For Sale sign for a dilapidated old Mansion and immediately is drawn to it. Against Brads judgement they buy it. 

 

Brad is the brawn in their flipping. He does most of the remodeling himself. Strange things and feelings start almost immediately when he begins work on the house.  His attitude changes and he is very short and cross with Julie whenever he is at the house. 

 

Brad wants nothing more then to finish the house and sell it as soon as possible. Julie on the other hand wants to keep the house and tun it into a B&B. After their house mysteriously burns down they move into the mansion and things really get strange. And dangerous. 

 

This was a short book and at times the timeline felt a bit rushed, but it was still a great story. It bounced between the present and Gerald and Tessa (the ghosts) past, filling you in on the history part of the story.  Michael Cash also added in that the house was a stop on the Underground Railroad. Which one really did exist in that town but not at this made up house.  The town is real, some of the people are real, and the Underground railroad was real. I really enjoyed everything about this book. It is not really scar the are some creepy parts to it though. 

 

 

I was given this book by the Author for reviewing purposes. The thoughts in this review are my own and not because the Author wanted me to say so.

Monsterland
Monsterland - Michael Phillip Cash

Another square for Halloween bingo. I wanted this to be the Vampire Vs. Werewolf square, but they weren't really weren't against each other, so I will go with the YA horror square.

 

A plague has spread across the world affecting parts of the population and turning them essentially into zombies.  Dr. Vincent Conrad has the perfect solution for the World’s zombie problem.  Countries have them contained, but cannot come up with a decision on how to move forward.  After Dr. Vincent discovered the last of the populations of Vampires and Werewolves, he has decided to open theme parks- Monsterland- across the world with attractions such as Vampire Village, Werewolf River Run and Zombieville.  With a mission stated to research and find a cure, Monsterland opens with a bang.  Lucky enough to land a special invite- Wyatt Baldwin, his brother and a few classmates are among the first guests.

This is a Young Adult paranormal, a bit like Jurassic Park but with Monsters. I really liked the theme park idea, but some of the monsters fell a little flat.  Although, they were probably as realistic as monsters could get; if Vampires, Werewolves and Zombies existed, the Werewolves would hide in the thick Everglades, the Vampires would be a dying breed who can only turn others with sex and can survive on animal blood and the Zombies would be plague victims able to be killed by any normal means. I was not surprised by how quickly they revolted once they realized they were prisoners in Monsterland.  The suspense built quickly and the action quickly turned gory.  Steeped with teen drama, many of the students were more interested in their relationship status.  Dr. Vincent was the most intriguing character.  His intentions seemed devious from the start, but I had no idea how far he would take it.  I was very surprised by the ending when his plan came to the surface.  Another character that shone for me was Wyatt’s best friend, Melvin.  Melvin is completely obsessed with Werewolves and is not afraid to be exactly who he is.  I think he probably came out with the best deal. Overall, a good concept with a bit of a different twist on the classic monsters and some good parallels to concentration camps.

 

This book was received for free in return for an honest review.

#PBwkendread Review: Monsterland
Monsterland - Michael Phillip Cash

I received this book to give an honest review.

 

The first thing that popped in my head was Jurassic park I just knew this was not going to end well at all. 

A man has a dream to get all the monsters that people fear and place them in one place, though this place should be to where nothing can get free or at least so you think. Wyatt and his friends get special passes but what exactly is so special about it? Will they be able to survive the opening night that is the question. 

We see how Wyatt being a young teen has a crush on the girl he can not have while trying not to be in the spotlight from her boyfriend Nolan. 

 I wanted more scariness with this book I felt it lacked that. There could have been backstories with the vampires or the wolves heck even the zombies. I wanted to know how did this virus come about as it was mentioned hence the need for the park. 

I think this book might be for the teens as the plot is not really in depth. There is really no gore or scariness to it. I think for me the coolest part was with the wolves and the collars came about towards the end. 

To me the book was okay something I would probably let my 10 year old read if he would like to.

The History Major by Michael Phillip Cash
The History Major: A Novella - Michael Phillip Cash
This is a novella with a difference! Amanda wakes up after a heavy night to a reality that doesn't seem right. Things - and people - are different. She ends up in a class that she didn't register for, and doesn't want, but seems to have no choice. Through a series of 'lessons' that spark her memories, she learns about herself. 
 
The History Major is a difficult book to categorise - on the one hand, there is a hint of the supernatural/paranormal to it, there is the hint of danger that is present throughout, plus the whole dreamscape sense to the story. 
 
It is very well-written, with no editing or grammatical errors to disrupt the flow, and is sure to make you think about Amanda's lessons once you have put the book down. Definitely recommended.
 
* Verified Purchase - July 2016 *
