ARC Review: A Linguistic Mystery

Book Review: A Western Horror
A review for the novel The Unkillable Frank Lightning by Josh Rountree. This story is a retelling of Frankenstein but set in the Old West and features a woman doctor. I found the story to be quite riveting and not as horror filled as the cover might suggest.
ARC Review: Curse Bearer #2
A review for the second novella in the Curse Bearer series by Veronica Roth. . To Clutch a Razor is just as dark as the first book and just as riveting. I love the characters and the themes of betrayal, vengeance and what it means to be a monster are well done.
