Review

Later is a Stephen King book that is part of the Hard Case Crime series, along The Colorado Kid and Joyland. It’s a coming-of-age mystery with ghosts, so what’s not to love? The writing is great, with a good pacing for a book like that: not too rushed to give us time to feel the vibes (it’s a ghost story mystery after all), but also not too slow to drive people of, or either too long that we feel like it’s dragging.

Since I was very young, I’ve always been a big fan of good mysteries. I still remember when I first got The Hound Of The Baskervilles, by Arthur Conan Doyle. It was a delight!

Then, fast forward to a year or so ago, and I was reading The Magpie Murders, my first Anthony Horowitz novel. I loved it so much, and I still need to write at least a short review here.

After that excellent first impression on an exceptional mystery novel, of course I was going to get another Horowitz novel. So I got The Word Is Murder, the first book on the Detective Daniel Hawthorne series, published in 2017.

This is a short science fiction book that also has a bit of fantasy. It’s the first in a series, but can be read as a standalone story.

Time for a light novel review here. This is a pretty famous property and I remember the anime was popular when it aired, and nowadays it still has a big fanbase. I never watched the anime, although I was always curious about it.

This is a book series (duology) that is not that famous (I think) but worth reading.

Despite always being interested in the Urban Fantasy genre, I don’t remember having read any recently. Not for lack of options, but mainly because YA and regular fantasy have a massive presence on blogs and YouTube channels, so there’s always a new great book that everyone should be reading coming out. Another reason is because the genre is even less popular here in Brazil, resulting in an impressive lack of options in Portuguese. But now that I’m reading mainly in English and I have a Kindle, it’s waaaay easier for me to finally give it a try to some great Urban Fantasy books.
