Danika reviews House of Hunger by Alexis Henderson
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link On paper, this should have been the perfect book for me to read Halloween month.

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link I love a good horror movie, and can never resist a classic haunted house, so when I heard that The Girls are Never Gone is about a podcast host investigating a 30 year old murder and possible haunting of a dilapidated old mansion, and it’s sapphic, I jumped on it.Read More
