The Yuletide Butcher by Mike Duke


🌟🌟🌟🌟 

Four "Merry Slasher" Stars


Will the Police Catch Their Man? 

A small taste of what lies within:

The Yuletide Butcher is hard to catch as law enforcement have been pursuing the killer for years as he only kills the day after Christmas and he is long gone before they arrive on the scene. 

As the police are tied up with trying to catch a killer, Jack Randall an upstanding citizen of the community hates his life and wants to get away from his family but things start to go south when the police start looking his way on maybe somehow being connected to the Butcher!

That is about all I can hand out with a small taste so if you want to know more then go read this book! 

Thoughts:

This was my first time reading this author and it won't be my last. I fell directly into the storyline and stuck with it as I put down my other books I was reading to just read this book. The pace is fast with this story as it moves quickly with different things happening. 

I really liked the characters in this book and I kind of had a feeling of the mystery of who the Butcher could be and the brutality of the killings just slams into the story as it kept me rooted in my easy chair! Looking forward to reading more books by this author in the future.

I Bought a Haunted Thanksgiving Table by Sam Whittaker

 


🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Five "Twisted Terror" Stars


Be Careful of What You Buy in a Thrift Store! 

A small taste of what lies within:

Scott and Wendy are browsing through a thrift store when Wendy sees an antique table that would be perfect for Thanksgiving. Scott isn't so sure about it as to him the table gives off some kind of creepy vibes but he shrugs it off and they end up buying the table. 

As soon as it is delivered some crazy things start to happen involving the table and within just a day or so Wendy starts experiencing sleepwalking issues and zoning out episodes. Scott knows that it is somehow connected to the table but what he doesn't know is that he will be regretting ever laying eyes on that table as the table seems to have a life of its own! 

That is about all I can hand out with a small taste so if you are intrigued then go read this book!

Thoughts:

This was my first time reading this author and I was hooked into this book right away as the story just flows along. The story kept me glued to my kindle as I had a hard time putting it down! The story moves fast as the pace picks up with more things happening to the characters. 

There is a twist though near the end of the book that I wasn't expecting and the book literally accelerated into high gear and I finished the last 20% within an hour as I could not break away from the story!

Looking forward to reading more books by this author as it seems he has quite a few books floating around out there in the book world!
