I picked this book out of the horror section, but it's more a mystery/ghost story.

Kelsea Stone arrives to take possession of a house left to her by her birth parents after their death. She has not seen them in years and barely remembers them at all. She has few memories of her early childhood and none that start before she was given up for adoption. She doesn't even remember that as a small child she once lived in this very home.

She intends to clear it out and sell it off, or perhaps rent it out as a vacation property. However that proves difficult with the rumors surrounding the home. The story line was fairly predictable but I enjoyed the spooky atmosphere, as I am a sucker for howling winds, heavy snowfall, and buried secrets.


I received an advance copy for review.… (altro)

This was a good read by an author that I haven't read before. Very short story, but it had some intense moments.

When Sandy leaves her boyfriend, she moves to the town of Augustus Valley to find a place to live and she takes her dog, Molly with her. Sandy meets a man named Harold who tells her that he does have an apartment for rent above a hardware store. The price is cheap, so Sandy takes it. After moving in, she goes to the grocery store to stock up on food, and learns that the apartment may be haunted.

Sandy doesn't really believe in ghosts so she just shrugs it off and doesn't think anymore about it until things start happening to make her wonder if she is going crazy or if there might be something to the rumors after all.

The story was good, but not good enough for more than three stars and I will tell you why. There is another character in the book that is part of the story, but though the character is in the book, there was never detailed information of how this character was connected to the hardware store or why the character was doing the things that were happening within the story. If this character was more developed and there was more information of how they actually "fit" into the storyline then I would have given more stars on this book. But that is just my opinion as other reviewers have given this book more than three stars. It just didn't work for me to add another star to this review. So three stars for this one.… (altro)

Rating 4 out of 5 stars
This book was surprisingly good. Between the cover and the fact that I got it for free, I was expecting a 3 star at best. However I found it to be creepy and an amazing storyline. I thought it was a bit predictable, but that might be because of someone the reviews I read before hand that gave away some hints. It was easy to read and to want to read. It definitely earned its stars and I will be watching this author to see what else he comes up with.
My rating system:
initial feeling= 4
writing= 3
readability= 5
plot= 5

This was such a great little ghost story wasn't expecting to like it quite as much as I did.
The tale centres around Kelsea Stone and her return to her roots after her parent's death.
Kelsea can't remember her early childhood its all a blank: all she recalls is the experience of growing up in care without a mum or dad.
So when she is the beneficiary of there will after there demise shes heads back to her beginnings to close up the house she has inherited and close the door on this chapter of her existence for good.
But somethings there and its been patiently waiting for her return: what's more it's really angry and wants some justice served.
Kelsea is in for some scary ghostly encounters while reclaiming her inheritance.
So that's it in a nutshell: really can't elaborate more without spoiling this.
So what I will say is give this a go: it was surprisingly addictive, so much so that I raced through this in one sitting.
An unexpected little gem that hooked me from the start: managing to expertly ramp up the suspense and the tension until I was practically on the edge of my seat: biting my nails from the nerves.
A story that just when you think you've got its number manages to change directions on you catching you completely unawares.
This was really well written and ever so nicely done indeed.
This one most certainly gets a thumbs up from me.
Thank you to the Author and NetGalley for providing me with a review copy of "Little One" of which I have reviewed voluntary.
