Monster Till Midnight

Halloween! We have arrived, people.

I’ve picked stories after species up until now, but today I went with the story that had a pumpkin on the cover, and I did not regret it for a second.

Monster Till Midnight by E.J. Russell is a delight. I haven’t read anything by Ms Russell before, can’t even remember seeing her name which I must have because I realised she has quite a lot out there, but her books must have swished by in my feed without me noticing. Not any more, though. I really enjoyed this.

Brady loves Halloween, he loves haunted houses, costumes, and scary props so of course, he’s gonna have a haunted house. He spends days arranging it, advertising in town, and perfecting everything, but no one comes.

Well, someone comes. Rej, arrives and shoots Brady’s vampire. While talking to Rej and contemplating calling 911 he realises the pumpkin mask he’s wearing is blinking when he’s blinking, frowning when he’s frowning, and smiling when he’s smiling.

Rej is an Interdimensional Law Enforcement officer out hunting bad guys through different time threads…or something, time travelling is way too complicated for me LOL, and he recognises the evil mastermind behind Brady’s transformation.

I loved this story and I will head over to E.J. Russell’s website and see what else she has to offer. This will not be the last thing I read by her.

Wrong Order

How to trade with a demon

Only one day to go to Halloween and it’s time for some demons… I have to admit that demons aren’t my thing. I haven’t read many demon books, and those I have read have mostly been M/F. There are a few I know I’ve read that I can’t remember the title of, we’ll see if I find them when going through my collections.

But, since I don’t have many demon books, and I don’t have many angel books, I thought I’d put them in one collection together. You’ll see it here.

So yeah, demons… Yesterday, we did monsters, and I talked about the Halloween Giveaway I’d found. I looked through the books, on the hunt for a demon book so I could read it and write a blog post.

I found one! Wrong Order by Morgan Noel. I haven’t read anything by Noel before, and with demons, you never know what you’re getting into, do you??

So… I think I’ve been cursed or something. This is the third book in a row I’ve read with tentacles – I’m not really a tentacle kind of girl LOL.

Josh wants wealth and fortune and summons a demon to get it. Things go a little wrong, though, because Josh didn’t bring the virgin he needs in order to trade with the demon. But he really wants that wealth and fortune…

This is an erotica story, so I’ll let you guess what happens next, and this demon has tentacles!

Dead Men Don’t Wash

I guess there’s truth in the title…

I’ve read Dead Men Don’t Wash by Ally Blue. It’s one of those stories I’ve seen swish by in my feed now and then, and I guess the title stuck with me. The reason I read it now is that I downloaded Still Waters by Alex Gabriel. Goodreads keep recommending to me so I thought I just have to read it, but when I downloaded it I tried to remember what that other book with water I’ve meant to read was LOL.

Dead Men Don’t Wash is one of the craziest stories I’ve read. We have tentacles, vampires, demons, Sherlock Holmes, and soap made of a dead man. I’m glad I didn’t read any reviews before reading it. If I had I probably would’ve skipped it.

I’m not big menage. To each their own is my motto in life, but I tend to stay away from menage books, two pairs of limbs are quite enough to keep track of…and here we have tentacles as well. But, this story is so crazy Ms Blue could’ve thrown in as many people as she’d wanted to and I still would’ve read it.

Don’t read this if you’re looking for something serious or touching, but if you’re in the mood for a few laughs and in my case a little cringing and some staring at the screen with bulging eyes, then go ahead.

I didn’t download it, I don’t think it’s available in the shops, but it’s up on Ally Blue’s website.

I’m putting this in my shifter collection. To see what other shifter stories I’ve read, click here.
