I just finished “The Silent Patient” by Alex Michaelides. If you’re into psychological thrillers this is the one for you. I could t put it down! I also really enjoyed “The Immortalists” by Chloe Benjamin. I don’t want to give anything away but this book really gets you thinking about how much one would want to know about their future. Also, I highly recommend “A Man Called Ove” by Fredrik Bachman. A truly wonderful read! (less)

The Dread of Night
by Nancy DeRosa

I felt it before I knew, heart hammering in my chest, I woke with a start, the clock by the far wall showing 3:06AM, a sound by my bedroom door, a shadow underneath, shifting slightly, a clicking sound, like a nail tapping, an ominous laugh, other worldly, my breath stops, I knew something was coming for me; my beloved glass bird suddenly sliding off the fireplace mantel, crashing to the ground, my watercolor painting popping off the wall, more broken glass beneath my feet, shoes, keys, pocketbook, never where I left them, always, weirdly, always somewhere else, yes, I knew a horrible entity was behind my door and it was here, now, for me.

I couldn’t blink, I couldn’t move as I watched the doorknob being turned, slow, agonizing, a dark figure standing beside my bed in an instant, huge, round yellow eyes staring, paralyzing me, it’s mouth opened, a horrible death like stench, it’s face mere inches from my face, it smiled, a huge black hole of a smile as it’s hideous mouth prepared to swallow me, make me a part of it’s evil, I knew this, and then, a sudden surge of strength, I wasn’t ready to die....(less)
