One thing about this book I loved was the main character's development. The way her monster was described I would definitely have a hard time dealing with it. Very disturbing, crazy creepy and scary for her. She pushed through and became stronger in the end, which who doesn't love a strong heroine overcoming her deepest fears.
One of my favorite book boyfriends was in this book and was it bad I was rooting for the other guy because I wanted Evander to stay single? Lol That shows how well his character has been written. I want him all to myself. Hooray for Book Boyfriends :) Without spoiling too much there is a fun twist that I he might have competition on the book boyfriend list.
There are also some major hints to what is coming for the next book and I loved seeing old characters make an appearance in this book.
Another knock out book. Check out all of N. L. Hoffman's books, you will not regret it!

CREEPY! More than just jump scares and there are plenty of those,  true creepy (especially when played at night with no lights on). I am so glad Capcom went back to RE' s roots with a truly scary creepy story line and creepy creepy atmospheres.  I'm playing on the PS4. They give you time to figure the game's mechanics through play at the beginning so you can jump right in. I'm about half way through the game and am chomping at the bit to get home to play more. I'm aure to play this for alternative endings and what ifs. I want to say more but am afraid of dropping spoilers. I'm recommending this game to all my gamer friends

Oh. My. Jesus. I don't usually read horror or suspense stories mainly because I am a huge chicken. I am happy I read this short story even though as I sit here typing this I am still a little freaked out lol. Max being the new kid was an easy target for bullies and their pranks. However the prank they planned for Max took a very...deadly turn. E.h. James I tip my hat to you!

Whoa! What a ride! A terrifying menacing story of a woman who falls in love with the wrong (very wrong) man. This really unnerved me and had me spellbound. I read it in one sitting staying up till 3 am as I just could not put it down. The plot didn't particularly surprise me, as I basically knew what was going to happen but the sheer suspense kept me glued. It is a very frightening scenario, especially as a woman, to read. Cannot wait for the author to write a second book!

This story was beyond creepy, with great characters, and a very, very unique plot!  This story will play on fears you already have or help you gain new fears!  For me, old toys are scary because you never know who owned them before you or where they've been.  Another easy way to scare me is to involve children in a horror story; they are so innocent-or are they?  AND as if that's not enough already, I find it extremely scary when one has to question his/her own sanity or the sanity of a loved one.  This story was filled with action and creepy goodness.  Highly recommending to all fans of modern horror!

It's refreshing to read a book that's not part of a series. Especially one that held my interest so well and freaked me out along the way. I'm a sucker for scary things. Horror movies, books, whatever! Poblocki did an amazing job of creating a spine-chilling novel! It was completely freaky throughout. I mean, who isn't scared of creepy figures in your room at night watching you?

'The Nightmarys' is a story told through Timothy. He was partnered up with the new girl in his class, Abigail. Things seem to be normally strange for Timothy but after Abigail is in his life, it goes from strange to bizarre. They suddenly find themselves on a quest to rid themselves from these nightmares that happen whether they are sleeping or not! It was definitely creepy! Poblocki doesn't reveal too much info about the characters so it leaves a lot to imagination. And I love that! I love that I can read about a character and just being able to picture what I think they look like from head to toe.

Poblocki's other novel, 'The Stone Child' is definitely being added to my "To Buy" list. If it's half as good and creepy as 'The Nightmarys' I know I'm going to love it! Poblocki definitely delivered with 'The Nightmarys.' As usual, this was another book I was holding off from and it turns out, I loved it! haha. Can't wait to read 'The Stone Child.'

I didn't know it was a 'zombie' book until I started reading it. I usually read at night to fall asleep. OMG I was so scared. BUT, I couldn't put it down!
I HATE horror movies, scary stories, being scared in general. BUT this book held my attention. I decided to stop reading at night, and ended up reading it the next Saturday morning. I didn't put it down until I was done. Super intense, but SO GOOD! The story was really well told, and kept me guessing. When I was done, I watched the trailer for the movie, but I couldn't get through the trailer, it was too scary LOL

Wow...what a scary book.  Normally I don't scare easily but this book got me.  Definitely well written.  Well worth your time to read if you enjoy scary reads.  So looking forward to Mixi's next book to see if she can scare me even more.  I received a free copy of the book but my review is completely voluntary and unbiased.

If you want a real thriller this book is for you!! I was thinking this was a horror movie. It sure would make a great one! I really loved how this book put me in suspense and wondering what would happen next! The author is amazing and definitely kept me scared and wanting to know how they would get out of their situation. I was surprised at the ending.

If your looking for a book that is non-linear, is scary, has gore, rich characters and scary villians, you will LOVE this book. I started and finished it all within the same day and it was great. A.R. Wise has proven himself to be an innovative author when it comes to the way in which he tells a story. This book will confuse you, scare you and by god creep you the f*** out!! Fantastic novel and I can't wait for the next one!

I loved it! There was nothing "expected"  Ialways read the book late at night, which just heightened the "scare" factor!

I chose this book as my monthly pick, I'm so glad I am so glad I did! This book was wonderfully written, and kept me on the edge of my seat. I usually don't like books that have flashbacks or skip around, but the flow worked perfectly. This was on of the first books in a while that I couldn't wait to finish, and sat and read most if the day. It is horrific and scary, in a good way, with out being overly graphic. You really feel like part of the garden at times. I can't wait to read more from this author!

I've just recently finished this book. Yes, there are some things that are not "great" about it. The dialoug sometimes is forced and other times the "lovey dovey" dialoug is hurried and not fleshed out. With those being the ONLY two things I found wrong with book it's an EXCELLENT read. There are scenes in there that give me goosebumps when I REMEMBER reading them! Not to mention the delicious fear I experienced when I was reading the book.
I thoroughly enjoyed this novel and if you like to be scared, you will too.

A couple of weeks ago I sat down and did a search for the "scariest" book out there. I was sure that I would find a ton of things I didn't want to read, but the one book that kept coming up over and over as everyone's favorite scary read was:
Haunted Lily, The Nightmare Ball by: Sidney Fox
I thought, wow, what a unique name and promptly looked it up. The cover art was intriguing and I thought "could it possibly be?"
So I asked our library to purchase it. When I explained that it was supposed to be scary our librarian asked me to read it and tell her if it held up to the hype because she is always getting requests for spooky good books.
Well, I just finished it! It was remarkable, tantalizing, vivid, a "Final Destination" movie put to words! Plus there's a good looking Brit I wouldn't mind meeting.
The first night I began to read it I was up really late in my room unable to put it down and I ran out of water. I decided that I didn't need a refill THAT bad!
I have to admit.......... This was the first book that actually got me creeped out since I was 9 under the covers with a flashlight reading true ghost stories!
I highly recommend this intriguing book!
Bravo! Sidney Fox!! Can't wait for the encore!

Please let me know what you think! I am dying to know what everyone else thinks! Get your local library to purchase it so we can support new artists!  And check back because the cover of Haunted Lily says there is another book due out soon!
