Series Review: You on Netflix
On the surface, You seemed like a series I wouldn’t enjoy. It’s about a stalker-turned-murderer who is obsessed with the woman he’s dating.

Book Club Discussion Questions PERFECT for Psychological Thrillers, Mysteries, Supernatural and Horror Stories
A few years back, someone posted a question on Goodreads asking if any book club discussion questions existed for my book, The Stolen Twin. Even though it had never occurred to me to provide them, the question still gave me pause. I’m an English Major, so I always thought of “literary” books as discussion question […]
