Imagine losing the love of your life, marrying a near stranger, moving completely off-grid… and then having a dead man show up at your door. My rating of Call Off the Dark: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5 My thoughts: Call Off the Dark by Hallie Shepherd is definitely a twisty genre-bender.

I gave this thriller five stars, and apparently I need to defend that decision. So, let’s talk about Little Red Death by Alexandra Benedict... I was given this book as an ARC from Poisoned Pen Press in exchange for my honest review, so thank you to Poisoned Pen Press, Alexandra Benedict for writing this story, and NetGalley for facilitating it all.

But there were some moments in this psychological thriller that absolutely worked for me, and the ending? SO GOOD. I genuinely didn't see everything coming, and I love when a thr

DID YOU HEAR? They say a girl died here… Anna and her family have just moved to Harper’s Creek, a little nowhere town with a dark history. But that’s all been resolved, so why is Anna feeling trapped? Why is her little sister afraid that she’ll be next? And WHY is Anna’s grandmother spinning out of control with paranoid episodes? I had the opportunity to read They Say A Girl Died Here early through an advanced listener copy (ALC), so first, thank you to Sarah Pinborough for t

It's been two years of plot twists, final girls, historical mysteries, and the absolute BEST community on the internet. Today marks exactly 2 years since I started my bookstagram account! To celebrate, I decided to air out some of my bookish confessions. Honestly, I think that launching Books With Brittani was the best decision ever. Finding this little part of the internet filled with people who love creepy atmospheres, unhinged characters, and mysterious historical drama as
