Giveaway (AUS) & Review: Firstlife by Gena Showalter – Multiple Lives, Different Ways

Giveaway (AUS) & Review: Firstlife by Gena Showalter – Multiple Lives, Different Ways

Chimera by Mira Grant Review: Survival of the Fittest

Chimera by Mira Grant Review: Survival of the Fittest

This review does not contain any series spoilers.  Reading this series is always a delightfully horrific and philosophical experience. Being centered around a scientific experiment gone wrong, causing tapeworms that were meant to be the end of human disease and suffering to overtake their hosts, it gets pretty squeamish during some parts. That’s part of […]
