Review: Ghosts in the Machine

Ghosts in the Machine by Richard Farr
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I received a Kindle edition of this book through a Goodreads Giveaway.

This book brought up some interesting food for thought with regards to what consciousness actually is and when it came about. The pages and pages of Morag's inner thoughts, particularly about Kit, started to get to be a bit much after a while. Other than that, the book was a decent read. On to book 3!

Review: The Fire Seekers

The Fire Seekers by Richard Farr
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Reading this was like stepping into an episode of Ancient Aliens only a dramatic fictional version. It was page turner and fast read. I do love the universal questions this book explores. Ancient history has always fascinated me. I am definitely jumping into the next book! It was a great way to pass the time during my lunch breaks.

Review: Black Death at the Golden Gate: The Race to Save America from the Bubonic Plague

Black Death at the Golden Gate: The Race to Save America from the Bubonic Plague by David K. Randall
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I received an ARC of this book through a Goodreads Giveaway.

I never knew the bubonic plague made it to the US until I read this book. This is not a book for germaphobes. I also found it interesting that some of the political tactics and games politicians play are still the same a century later.

Review: City of Ghosts

City of Ghosts by J.H. Moncrieff
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book was suspenseful and keep me turning pages. This was a very good ghost story. If I didn't have a fear of traveling, I would visit and experience China. I would love to visit places similar to what the book describes.

I read this book as part of the PopSugar Reading Challenge 2019 - A ghost story.

Review: The Atlantis Gene

The Atlantis Gene by A.G. Riddle
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a wild ride. Once I got a few chapters into the book, it was very hard to put down. I love how the story of Atlantis and theories of human origins were meshed together. I am looking forward to getting into the next book of the series.

Review: Red Dragon

Red Dragon by Thomas Harris
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I may be in the minority on this, but this book was not as engaging as I hoped and the movie was better than the book. I was really excited to start reading this book, but as I read I felt it was just dragging on and on. I do not mind creepy books, but after a while it lost its creep factor as boredom took over. Hoping Silence of the Lambs is better.

Review: The Invited

The Invited by Jennifer McMahon
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I received an ARC of this book through a Goodreads Giveaway.

I have been looking for a really good paranormal/ghost story that has nothing to do with vampires or monsters. This book was the one. I loved the historical and genealogical aspects. It had its moments of creepiness. I found myself thinking about it constantly between reading sessions.
