The Halloween Tree (1972) #31DaysofHalloween
“Everything seemed cut from soft black velvet or gold or orange velvet.

The novella … Continue reading
Jack the Ripper (2006) #31DaysofSpookyBooks
It’s weird to say that I have a favorite crime case. The Ripper case is STILL fascinating people and still holds its place as one of the most brutal mysteries of our time. True crime also holds place as a popular genre for a lot of you, so it wouldn’t be fair to not include … Continue reading
