Author: Kay Hooper
Release Date: 2012

ISBN 13: 9780515152883

Rating: 10/10



Tucker Mackenzie is a fairly well off author searching far and wide for a psychic... A  REAL psychic. 

When he finds Sarah Gallagher, a psychic that continues seeing her own death, the two end up on a cat and mouse chase while trying to figure out the reason it is all happening.


Will Sarah Gallagher escape her death with the help of Tucker Mackenzie?

And will Sarah be able to help Tucker Mackenzie with his life long questions?


There is one fact they will both have to embrace... The two of them are about to go on the journey across the nation looking for an answer that might not even be there.


For those of you that like the Supernatural, this is a very interesting Mystery for all ages!

Review: As the story begins, Tucker meets Sarah outside of her burning house in the search to find a real psychic. Unlike most people, Sarah seems not to care that her home is on fire and watches soberly as the local authorities question her of any enemies she may have.

As the plot thickens, the house fire begins to look more like arson and Tucker has to convince Sarah the fate she sees for herself may not actually happen.

While the two work together they face an unknown enemy, one that they need to understand before its too late!


This book is really well written and interesting. There are also scenes of romance entangled within the mystery.

As I write this review I am reading the second book in the 3 part series.

Definitely not a book to put down.

The Amityville Horror by Jay Anson

In December 1975, the Lutz family consisting of  Kathy and George along with their two sons and daughter 'Missy'  moved into their dream home which was well below their budget and it was a luxurious masterpiece.

However, soon after moving in, their presence in the house seems to be unwanted and for the next 28 days they try to convince themselves they are living in their dream home, and not some dark place more terrifying than their deepest nightmares.
Did the Lutz Family buy their Dream Home... or a Death Sentence?

Review: I remember reading this book in the series as a teenager… it is one of those books that gives you goosebumps and when reading it at night it feels like some dark entity is watching you through the pages. 

It is an amazing horror novel that will send chills down your back.

TommyKnocker by Stephen King

**Note: This Book Review was originally added as a Mock Review in May 2023.**
**This Review was updated in October, 2023**


Book Information:
Author: Stephen King
Release Date: 1987
ISBN 10: 0451156609
ISBN 13: 9780451156600
Genre: Horror Fiction
Rating: 9/10


In the small town of Haven, Maine, Roberta Anderson, a western fiction writer that goes by the name "Bobbi" stumbles upon a metal object sticking out of the ground in the middle of the woods.
Upon showing her long time best friend James Eric Gardener, the two begin to attempt to dig up and unearth the object. As the weeks go by, Bobbi's obsession for diggin the object which reaches several feet underground increases and soon she begins getting help from other members of the village.
James Eric Gardener or "Gard" begins to feel worried about the towns' behaviour and its relation to the metal object they are digging up and begins his attempt to understand it and dissarm it.


This book, TommyKnockers is an amazing piece by Stephen King. It is not only an erie Horror novel to read on a late night but it is also a page turning Science Fiction novel as well.
I feel Stephen King is one of the greatest at Horror, and often times his Horror novels slowly make their way to the Grimy, Adult Science Fiction his fans have come to enjoy.
If I could recommend any of Stephen King's books to someone new to his work, TommyKnockers would be in my Top 5!
