My Review: Wake the Dead by Stacey Rourke


Wake the Dead
(The Journals of Octavia Hallows Book 1)
Written by Stacey Rourke
Genre: Dark Fantasy
Release Date: Feb 28, 2019
Preorder: Amazon

Blurb

With a touch of her hand, Octavia Hollows can restore life. Yet, she couldn’t save the man she loved from the horrific accident that stole him from her. Octavia thought she could outrun the pain, but ghosts from the past refuse to be silenced. Out of options, she chooses to retrace her wayward journey across the country in search of answers. Surrounded by baffling mysteries of the undead, what she learns about herself along the way might become her greatest weapon.

Seattle, Washington: Land of cloudy skies and a great cup of coffee.

Octavia blew into town in search of information, only to get swirled up in a paranormal predicament even she couldn’t fathom. A neonatal nurse is dead, and her young patient is aging at an alarming rate.

Can Octavia unlock the secrets to this confusing curse before time runs out?



Review time!!!!

This is the first time I’ve read a book about a necromancer. I love Stacey Rourke’s take on it. I absolutely CAN NOT WAIT for the next one. I’m addicted to this series like I am to Bacon 🐖 💕.

I’ve had a book hangover for awhile and I honestly thought it'd never go away but this “delightful display is what’s known as a Cosmic Bitch-slap” and has restored my love for reading again.

This story has the bad ass, Octavia, find out who she really is and learn not to go by what others think she is or will become. She becomes comfortable with herself and her powers and I think we all need a bit more of THAT in our lives. 

I give this ......


Great job Stacey Rourke! This was better than some hot and spicy Menudo for my "hangover." Many thanks for letting me read this. It means a lot to enjoy reading again.

Blurb: Max and his best friend/guardian angel, Jones, are on the run for a month before the first clue leads them to Sin City, Las Vegas, to find the Nephilim of Greed, Nikolai.

In the sequel to Sins of the Fallen, Karina Espinosa pulls readers back to the saga unfolding in the world of angels and demons—a world in which everything begins to fall apart.

Welcome To My New Blog!

So I am not big on blogging. Just starting out. The only reason I started blogging any book reviews was because a dear friend of mine, K.B. Miller, insisted I get comfortable with the idea. "Your opinions matter Chuya!" That's what she always said to me. She pushed me into contributing for her blog. Not only to keep her blog active but for myself.


 You see my dear friend was battling MS and I won't get into that part of Kym's life...it never kept her down if she could help it. She wanted to keep planning for the future and always had me in mind to help. I never could say no to her. She was a force to be reckoned with. She loved books. Reading them, writing them, talking about them, blogging and reviewing them. Reviews help authors and she knew it as the #1 rule to writing. So to honor my friend I will continue reading and blogging my reviews. Even if no one ever reads this....my opinion is out there and matters. Kym said so. I'll always love her for that.


I am currently selectively accepting the following genres;
Paranormal
Fantasy
Romance
Historic Romance
Western Romance
Erotica
Anything that doesn't involve hurting children, animals, or incest. Because that's just... wrong.


The formats that I accept are;
Ebooks; mobi or ePub. 
Paperbacks are always awesome!

Please email all request to;
Chuyasreviews@gmail.com
I currently have a 2-3 week turn-around time on reviews.


My rating system is as follows;

5 = Family will starve tonight (The book is that damn good!)


4 = Family eats it crispy tonight (I could hardly put it down.)

3 = Family dinner is edible tonight (Was able to walk away.)


2 = Family compliments meal tonight (Eh...)


1 = Family got a homemade dessert tonight (Dinner was way more important!)


Until next time, happy reading!
