#Review – The Zed Conspiracy by Meera Masen

Leave a comment

Previously published under S.M. Phoenix
Based on a writing prompt.

These short stories will have you second guessing how much control the government has over its citizens and whether zombies can be created in a science lab.

PART ONE
On trial for murder, Jonathan Bigwell must prove his innocence after killing what he thought was a zombie. But how innocent is the judge?

PART TWO
Successfully creating a genetic mutation isn’t easy, but scientist Tonya Farris did it. What will her new gene do and why does the government want it?

PART THREE
The government elite must now tie up loose ends and figure out their next move. Will they successfully launch Project Zed?

This was a fun short little zombie read. The government has a gene created that can turn people into zombies. Nothing could go wrong with thay right? Clearly these people have never watched a zombie movie in their life. The story shows the gene being created, the zombies being formed and an attack from some zombies. Cause again, creating zombies is alwahs a good idea. Insert eye roll here. The story also shows a court hearing and how one guy gets convicted of murdering a zombie. While this is just a story, it makes me wonder if it could actually happen. Good thing I’ve watched a lot of zombie movies. You know…for research purposes and all.

#Review – Sewer Rat by Meera Masen

Leave a comment

Ben Jansen has been bullied relentlessly since the third grade by his ex-best friend, Jimmy Norton, after he spills an important secret that destroys not only each of their families but also their friendship.

In an odd twist of fate, Ben finds friendship and comfort in a new and unlikely ally under the city streets. His new friend, Henry encourages Ben to stand up for himself.

Armed with newfound confidence, Ben seeks revenge on Jimmy and his Goon Squad, one by one.

This is an extreme psychological horror story. If you are not familiar with the genre, please note that this is extremely dark and twisted.

I really liked this one. I knew something was off, especially when the author said that she hopes the ending makes the reader mad. But I wasn’t sure how it was going to play out.

Ben had been bullied by the Goons for years for reasons that he truly honestly believed happened. But did they?

He ends up meeting a rat, Henry, and this rat and his family help Ben. Not sure it ends exactly how Ben expected though.

I read this one in a single sitting and while it was short, it didn’t feel like it. I think it packed the perfect punch for the length it was. I can’t wait to read more from this author!

#Review – Gaping Wound by Meera Masen

Leave a comment

Caden always knew that he was different and now he would stop at nothing to match who he is on the outside with who he is on the inside. With a mother who doesn’t share his ideologies, Caden begins research on the deep dark web, looking up do-it-yourself gender reassignment surgeries.

This is a splatterpunk/extreme horror story. If you are not familiar with the genre, please note that this is extremely dark and twisted.

This story instantly hurt my heart. To not have the support from your parent where you have to take things upon yourself in the most drastic way. I know this is just a book but I also know that so many people in the world, feel exactly like this character does. I also wonder just how many people do these kinds of things on their own. This was my first book from this author and I can’t wait to read more. This story is extreme and has several triggers. It made me wince and take deep breaths at times. Which is saying something, given the books I’ve read in the past year. Most of all, I loved that Delilah is finally happy. But oy, what a way to find that happiness. Makes me sad that she had to go through all of that.

#Review – Tapewyrmin’: An Extreme Horror Short by Judith Sonnet

Leave a comment

Clyde thinks he’s in luck when the hottest babe on campus starts asking after him . . .
Until he’s confronted by her ex. A jock, who claims that Amira isn’t all she seems to be. And that getting her into bed . . . might not be a great idea.
Ignoring his warnings, Clyde meets up with Amira, hoping to have some fun.
But he quickly learns that something unnatural is going on inside Amira’s body.
Something . . . inhuman.

WARNING: This is an extreme horror short. If you don’t like crude content or gore . . . don’t read this story.

This book was gross in the best of ways. I just love the way Judith always comes up with something utterly disturbing in her stories and makes it awesome.

So we meet Clyde who is nothing super special. He’s not popular and only okay looking. He can’t get the ladies either.

After an unexpected encounter with a popular and beautiful girl, his world takes a turn for…the better? I guess it depends on how you look at it. 

This book is a short and super quick read and doesn’t disappoint in the odd department.

#Review – 100% Match by Patrick C. Harrison III

Leave a comment

“What The One Minute Manager was to business, 100% Match is to relationships.” -PC3 Books

Bart is thirty. He is bald. He is overweight. He wears glasses. He is a fry cook. He hates cats. And kids. Bart occasionally does very bad things. He is looking for his perfect match. He has done his research.

“Depraved, deranged, and blackly hilarious. PC3 does what he does best here, and doesn’t hold back. I suspect 89.3% of you will love this story. The other 10.7% are humorless prudes.” -Chris Miller, author of Dust and Dub-Town Blues

“Vile, repulsive, and smart, with a kick-in-the-ass ending. You know, all the stuff we’ve come to love about PC3” -Rayne Havok, author of Necrosis

“Get ready to squirm, cringe, and maybe even laugh! Patrick C. Harrison III’s prose is as slick as it is sick, and 100% Match is one you won’t want to miss. Especially if you’re deranged and looking for love.” -Judith Sonnet, author of No One Rides for Free

“If you like your fiction sick and twisted, this one will be a 100% match for you. PC3 gives us a glimpse into the mind of the truly depraved, and despite the nature of spending time in such a nasty headspace, the story is entertaining as hell. Just don’t read it on a full stomach.” -Robert Essig, author of The Circus Oasis and Tweaker Creatures

Ok this book was so much fun and so random at times, that I couldn’t stop laughing and thinking “WTF am I reading?”

We meet Bart who is trying to find his perfect lady and 100% match. We find out his daily routine and how he lives his life. The things he does, are vile and disgusting at times. The scenes aren’t in the greatest detail but the way the author wrote them, it almost makes it seem worse. It’s like he wrote it in a way that you’re forced to use your imagination and if yours is anything like mine, that’s not a good thing.

I really enjoyed this book and it’s the first I read by this author, so I’ll definitely be picking up more from him. I also absolutely loved the twist at the end.

This book was so entertaining and one I won’t stop thinking about. Oh and I’m never eating a fast food place again.

#Review – Vasectomy by R.J. Powell

Leave a comment

Scott has an appointment for a vasectomy. Dr. Mudgett has other plans in mind.
Reader discretion is advised.

******
“R.J. Powell returns with a story that is sure to leave you wincing in pain and second guessing your next medical procedure. The stuff of nightmares.” – John Lynch, Author of The Warrior Retreat

Other books by R.J. Powell include Dollface, Madness in Tandem, and Eight Cases of Jane.

Well this was fun in a painful disturbing kind of way. So I know there’s such a thing as medical voyeurism on the dark web, but I’ve never actually read a book about it. Until now.

Scott is going in for a standard procedure. After his wife had their twins, they decided they shouldn’t have anymore kids, so Scott is getting a vasectomy. Seems pretty normal, right? 

Much to Scott’s dismay, the procedure does not go like he thought it would. 

After some hardships and money issues, Scott’s wife takes it upon herself to use him to get paid. In quite unconventional ways.

This was a quick extreme little reason that I read in a single sitting.

#Review – Dollface by R.J. Powell/Ryan J. Powell

Leave a comment

Papa has his victims, but Dollface holds his heart. His perfect little Dolly. Now, she’s awake and ready to seek revenge for all she was forced to witness and endure. *TW: Contains SA

***
Other works by the Author include Madness in Tandem and Eight Cases of Jane.

I came across a TikTok video about this book and without even listening to the whole thing, I instantly added this book to my KU library and read it in one sitting.

This little story is short, disgusting and so much fun.

We meet Papa who is a monster. Literally. From the things he does to his victims, the ages of said victims, and how he treats them, his final outcome was far too soft for him if you ask me.

Papa has a doll, Dollface, and she is his everything. Until she isn’t.

With the help of Dollface, Rebecca is able to seek her revenge. But what lengths do these two actually go through to avenge all of Papa’s victims?

If you like extreme horror, I suggest picking this one up! There are possibly triggers in this, so please read with caution.

#Review – Slay All The Way (Silent Frights Book 1) by Nova Kane

Leave a comment

SLAY ALL THE WAY

Santa’s got a new suit, and it’s stained with blood.

Killer clown, killer clown,

Stalking through the snow,

Ribbons tight, silent night,

Nowhere left to go.

Killer clown, killer clown,

On his blood-red sleigh,

You can’t escape his twisted shape,

You’re all his to slay.

Blood-red bows, icy toes,

Underneath the tree,

With twisted glee, you’ll never be free,

His gift to you is he.

This is my favourite book by Nova Kane so far! I was intrigued by Johnny when we first meet him in the Cirque Du Desir books. But by the end of book 2, I had to know more about this psycho clown.

I read Slay All The Way in a single sitting and stayed up way later than I originally intended. I love a good reading session like that!

So we meet Alaska, who is trying to salvage things between her and her boyfriend Mark. He’s a tool by the way. But Alaska is getting no where. All while this is happening, she feels like she’s being watched. I wonder by who? 😉

Johnny is obsessed and is determined to make Alaska his. When they finally cross paths, it’s off the charts HAWT. While I was reading, I kept thinking, I know I probably shouldn’t like Johnny but I really truly do. Clearly there’s something wrong with me. Especially after he leaves Alaska a present.

I can’t wait to binge the rest of Nova’s books and to read every single thing she releases. 

She definitely has a new fan for life!

#Review – Maison De Fous (Cirque Du Désir Book 2) by Nova Kane

Leave a comment

Sequel to A La Folie

This is a PITCH BLACK EROTIC HORROR. Please mind the trigger warnings.

Are you ready for the show to begin?

Cirque Du Desir : The Dark Harvest – A Night of chaos, carnage and contentment.

Coming soon to a town near you.

Holy moly this was sick, twisted, disgusting and depraved and I loved every bit of it!

We are back with our lead couple, Indie and Lux, who run Cirque Du Desir. They are the King and Queen and everyone knows it.

We’re also introduced to Johnny a little bit as well and I have to say and I can’t believe I’m saying this especially when you read about him, but I was very happy whenever I read his chapters. So much so that I can’t wait to read his Christmas book. Johnny and Christmas doesn’t sound like it should go together.

This book is everything you could ask for in a horror erotica. Between lots of bloodshed, super hot intense times, and moments that make you question on why you like it, it’s definitely a must read if you enjoy the darker side of things.

When Lux, Indie, Johnny and the rest of the cirkies, create a night they hoped for and more, things take a twisted unhinged turn.

Please note that this book is NOT for the faint of heart but I can’t wait to see what’s next for our King and Queen!

#Review – Spunky (The DNF Series, #1) by Haley Tyler

Leave a comment

If your book boyfriend came to life, would you do anything to keep him?

Of course you would.

And I would too.

Ian and I only have 72 hours together before he disappears back into his book, and the only way to keep him with me forever? True love’s j*zz. That’s right. I need all the creamy, spunky goodness he has to offer. And I’m willing to do whatever it takes to make him mine forever, even if that means marrying a fictional man.

Ok this book was awesome! I came across it in a book group I’m in and boy am I ever glad I decided to give it a shot. It’s so cringe and off the wall but I loved it! It was definitely a nice break from the heavy stuff I’ve been reading and writing. AND it’s a nice change and takes you out of life stuff in general.

So we meet Lyric (I love this name by the way), who is desperate to find her true love but she doesn’t think it’ll ever happen.

After speaking with her friend who gives her a way to make her book boyfriend come to life, she does it and it works! But there’s a catch. They don’t have long together. So she has to do whatever she can to make sure they can stay together forever.

The descriptive word choices for…uh…things had me rolling. I couldn’t stop laughing. But at the same time, it was also super hot.

This book is short and filthy, with the most asinine ways you could ever think of to describe things and I absolutely loved every bit of it.
