Review: 
Alice and her crew are making a documentary about a village called Silvertjarn, a town where over 850 residents just disappeared without a trace and when someone did make it to the village there was a woman with mental difficulties stoned to death and a crying infant in the  schools nurse's office in town. Everyone else in the town disappeared into thin air, taking none of their belongings and leaving no indication to where they went. Alice and Tone have personal connections to this village because Tone's mother was the baby found and Alice's family was some of the village to disappear.
As Alice and her crew start the documentary Tone ends up spraining her ankle pretty bad when she stepped on a not really stable piece of wood. As time progresses the crew start to get eerie feelings of being watched as some things start to occur such as screams, voices, giggles are being heard on the walkie talkies.Then when Emmy leaves tone to talk to her mom on her cell phone Tone disappears. As they are trying to put together the clues to see if she left on her own accord to go to the doctor, did someone kidnap her or did something more sinister happen that is connected to the village.
I really enjoyed this book with all the eerie feelings going on and the mystery on what happened to the people! I liked that the book switched into the present and into the past to give you an overall picture of what was happening as it was happening then and now. I definitely recommend this for anyone who likes horror or anything like the blair witch project. Definitely a book I will reread because it was that good!!! Check out The Lost Village when it is released in March 2021 you will not be disappointed and just a piece of advice do not read this one in the dark!
Thank you Netgally and Minotaur books for the opportunity to read this one!

Title: His Secret Starlight Baby  Author: Michelle Major Expected Publication: February 23, 2021 Publisher: Harlequin Special Edition  Genre: Romance  Pages: 224 pages  Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review:  It's soo cute and I loved it! Cory has a secret, a secret that her grandmother's dying wish was for Cory to let her son meet his father. Jordan is a retired NFL player and he had a one night event with Cory and when she snuck out of his bed in the morning he went ahead and left Atlanta and started his new non-NFL life. So later when Cory goes to see Jordan he is surprised but not as surprised as he is when Cory tells him he has a son. So now they are pretending to be in a relationship and they are going to Jordan's fathers funeral. Now, this game gets too serious when Cory starts to actually get feelings for Jordan and Jordan is too stubborn to tell Cory he has the same feelings. This is a cute quick read and I loved it and binged it in one night!

Title: The Golden Couple  Author: Greer Hendricks & Sarah Pekkanen  Expected Publication: March 8, 2022 Publisher: St. Martin's Press  Genre: Mystery/ Thriller  Pages: 336 pages  Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review:  OMG This is one that I was really enthusiastic to read because I have loved EVERYTHING that these two authors have written and just a little secret (they didn't let me down! I was glued to my kindle the last 40% of the book!) Marissa Bishop sought out Avery Chambers to help her with her marriage. Marissa had a fling and she wanted to tell her husband in a controlled environment, where she and he could work out their differences and heal their marriage. Avery is just the unorthodox therapist to do this, see she only takes clients that she can help in 10 visits because she has a system that works. So while they work through her program they can be in a different place than when they first came to see her. So, while it seems that the Bishops are getting through their

My Review of The Shadow Man by Helen Fields

Title: The Shadow Man  Author: Helen Fields  Expected Publishing Date: Feb. 4, 2021 Published by: Avon Books UK  Genre: Mystery/ Thriller  Pages 400 pages  Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5  Review:  This is a different kind of thriller/horror book. An American profiler and psychologist is called in to help aid when a high profile abduction of Elspeth occurs after a murder of a similiar woman. Along with Detective Baarda she and he follow the abductions of a 12 year old child and of a parapalegic man. Trying to figure out the end game is all they can try to do and the twist and the turns of the case is absolutely horrifying. Fergus abducts them all to try to create the family he never had, not long after his introduction the reader can realize that he is not only physically but also mentally sick. He is so sick and twisted it's not even funny. This book follows the investigation and also gives an insight into Fergus's mind, and what an adventure that was. I definitely recommend this b
