Book Description
Some secrets are worth dying for.
For months, Doctor Rowan Dupont has been staring death in the face. It followed her back to her hometown of Winchester, Tennessee, ten months ago, cloaking the walls of her family’s Victorian funeral home like a shroud. In investigating the mysterious deaths of her loved ones, Rowan has unearthed enough family secrets to bury everything she’d previously thought true. But each shocking discovery has only led to more bodies and more questions; the rabbit hole is deeper than she ever imagined.
Despite settling in to a comfortable life with Police Chief Billy Brannigan, Rowan knows dangerous serial killer Julian Addington is still out there. She can’t let her guard down now. Not when she’s this close to ending his torment once and for all. But with a storm brewing on the horizon, she’ll get only one shot before the impending darkness takes hold, threatening to wipe away every truth she’s uncovered—and everything she holds dear.
My Thoughts
This is a small piece of the first chapter. You can see how gloriously complex this book begins:
“Her mother had been involved with Julian Addington, currently one of the most prolific serial killers in documented history. The depth of her involvement was unknown. If Anna Addington, Julian’s ex-wife, was to be believed, Julian had been obsessed with Norah, Rowan’s mother. After her death, he had become obsessed with Rowan—all that was left of her since his own daughter had murdered Rowan’s twin sister, Raven.”

Book Description
Continuing the dark and humorous adventure that begins with The Devil’s Apprentice
Philip’s adventures as the Devil’s apprentice have changed him–in a good way. Although he misses his friends in Hell, he has made new friends in life.
But when the future of the underworld is threatened once again, Philip’s help is needed. Death’s Die has been stolen and immortality is spreading across the globe.
Philip throws himself into the search–and discovers a horrible truth about his own life along the way.
The Great Devil War is a gripping and humorous tale about good and evil seen from a different perspective, making the reader laugh and think. It’s filled with biblical and historical characters and set in a world beyond your wildest dreams. Or nightmares ..
My Thoughts
This is a great series that is technically YA but all age groups should enjoy. It has many many layers and a main character that continues to grow in endearing ways – which isn’t always easy since he has Hell calling on him for help much too often.

Book Description
All is lost.To save everyone she loves from imminent death, kitsune shapeshifter Yumeko gave up the final piece of the Scroll of a Thousand Prayers. Now she and her ragtag band of companions must make one desperate final effort to stop the Master of Demons from using the scroll to call the Great Kami Dragon and make the wish that will plunge the empire into chaos.
Shadow clan assassin Kage Tatsumi has regained control of his body and agreed to a true deal with the devil—the demon inside him, Hakaimono. They will share his body and work with Yumeko to stop a madman, and to separate Hakaimono from Tatsumi and the cursed sword that trapped the demon for nearly a millennium.
But even with their combined skills and powers, this unlikely team of heroes knows the forces of evil may be impossible to overcome. And there is another player in the battle for the scroll, a player who has been watching, waiting for the right moment to pull strings that no one even realized existed…until now.
My Thoughts
I’m really looking forward to this installment of A Shadow of the Fox. The cover is gorgeous and I can’t wait to see what happens ❤️

These are all new titles to me and I’m intrigued with The Die of Death. Will check it out since it’s a series. I’ll have to check the first book first. 🙂
Here’s mine this week:
https://happymesshappiness.wordpress.com/2020/03/04/www-wednesday-04-mar-2020
The first book is actually a Kindle Unlimited (if you have that) and it’s called The Devil’s Apprentice. Very very good read.
Noted. 🙂
Great week!! Can’t wait to read The Die Of Death – I am glad it was enjoyable! 😊💜
I think you will like it. It is so interesting.
ooh sounds great! can’t wait!
I’m looking forward to reading the rest of the Great Devil War series! I’m absolutely loving the covers 😍 I hope you enjoy your current and future reads!
I love this series. I hope they all are as good as the first two ❤️
I haven’t read any of these but you make them sound so intriguing!
They are very good! Well…the ones I’ve read/reading and hopefully my next read will be too. The Die of Death is out but the other two will be out at the end of the month 😊
I do like books that have those twists and turns I am not expecting – I am intrigued to see how The Darkness We Hide turns out. Here’s mine: https://www.autismfamilypower.com/www-wednesday-march-4-2020/
I’m curious too.
Your currently reading looks great, I also love psychological thriller so I will check that out!! Would love to hear your thoughts on it still. Happy reading!💕
I think it’s available on NetGalley, if you go through there, and it will officially be out at the end of the month. It’s very interesting so far.
Thanks!! Will definitely request for that.
I’ve never read Julie Kagawa, but I’ve had one of her books on my Kindle for quite a while. Hope you enjoy Night of the Dragon! https://teripolen.com/2020/03/04/www-wednesdays-what-am-i-reading-amreading-10/
I hope so too. It looks good ❤️
The Darkness We Hide intriguing, Judging from that paragraph, I see lots and lots of complexity in the plot! 🙂
So far it is quite complex. Really wondering how it’s going to turn out.
I reeeeally need to read The Devil’s Apprentice (well, the whole series) soon! It just sounds fantastic, and I’ve had my eye on it for a while. Night of the Dragon! I just was approved for this yesterday, and I couldn’t be more thrilled. I’m dying to find out how this is, and I need me some more Haikamono. I look forward to seeing what you think.
I’m glad you requested Night of the Dragon ❤️. I look forward to seeing what you think as well!
The Die of Death sounds unusual. Lol. If someone knows nothing about the bible and its characters, do you think it would still be worth reading or is that backstory important? Night of the Dragon sounds great. I hope it lives up to that cover. 🙂
I think so. There are small references someone may or may not get … like Judas or Noah, but the story is basically independent of the Bible.
Thanks. It sounds like it might be a fun one.
It really is. It starts with The Devil’s Apprentice and the whole series is available with Kindle Unlimited.
Oooh. That’s good to know. 🙂
I’ll be reading The Die of Death soon! Currently, I’m making my way through There Will Come A Darkness by Katy Rose Pool and I kind of need to finish it today or tomorrow the latest. After, I’ll be reading Five Dark Fates.
Five Dark Fates…that series intrigues me. Have you read the first 3 books?
Yes! I really enjoyed all of them, but the last one was probably my favourite.
I have Shadow of the Fox, but I still need to read it. Hoping to get to it soon. Hope you enjoy Night of the Dragon.
It looks so pretty, it has to be good, right? 😜. I’m looking forward to finding out.
