What a wild and crazy ride I never wanted to get off of! Inside the devil's nest had it all! Action, gore, heartfelt moments. I was hooked from the very beginning and hated that I had to do life and put it down! I'm terrified of water and this did NOT help! Reaffirms for me if I can't see the bottom, I'm not going in! 

⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️Spoilers!⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️

I was really hoping for a happy ending for Allie and her family! I really liked Allie and Holly was the epitome of a mother fighting tooth and nail for her kids. I was never a fan of Anthony because I thought he was a dick from the beginning. The ending had me on the edge of my seat and screaming just kill the bastard already! 

I absolutely loved inside the devil's nest!
Stories I Forgot by Chaz Williams

What a wild ride! Stories I forgot made me miss home more than I thought it would. Seeing all the Chicago references and even the news station! Chicago scares me and this book is the exact reason why. 

I felt angry, sad, hopeful and creeped out while reading the stories. The last one, I want to wake up, just broke my heart and I cried a few tears. 

This world is cruel. Stories I forgot show that the real monster is in fact humans! The hate in this world just hurts my heart. 

Chaz, your words moved me and I absolutely loved your book!

Oh this book was so so good! I absolutely love Gage Greenwood! This book did not disappoint! I loved all the shout outs in the book as well to all the BoH authors! That brought a smile to my face! 

On a clear day had me all in my feels with the dad, Brian just trying to get his family out of debt and just looked at as a junkie, poor little Angela being alone her whole life. All the characters just spoke to me in different ways and the trauma bond is so real. 

Gage painted a "world" that is terrifying and I could smell the smells, taste the salt air, hear the roars, see the fog. The monsters were terrifying and the back story sent chills down my spine. 

This book definitely needs to be read and Gage is an author that you need to keep on your radar!

Candy dish is such a good collection of horror stories. Some left me saying WTF, some left me saying I need more, and all had twists that were deliciously frightening and so spine tingling good! Matt is an amazing author and he leaves me wanting more!!!!!!

This was hard to read. It was a disgusting book. How desperate for money are you if this is the result?
