Review: The Last Love Note by Emma Grey

The Last Love Note by Emma Grey My rating: 3 of 5 stars In THE LAST LOVE NOTE by Emma Grey, I embarked on a journey filled with conflicting emotions.

While my personal experience may differ, many readers have found this book highly enjoyable, so I e

Review: The Curse of Penryth Hall by Jess Armstrong

The Curse of Penryth Hall by Jess Armstrong My rating: 4 of 5 stars THE CURSE OF PENRYTH HALL by Jess Armstrong is a compelling blend of mystery, magic, and historical drama. Set in post-World War I England, the story follows Ruby Vaughn, an American heiress with a mysterious past, as she confronts old wounds and dark secrets in the haunting Penryth Hall.
