I love anything written by Mitch Albom, but this one was just beautiful, particularly if you've ever had a love one pass away and been desperate for that one extra moment with them.

Fiona (Hartlepool)

Seeking a book club

Hello, I mainly read Horror and fantasy but I also enjoy Mystery/Crime, Thriller, Scfi and non fiction... I'm open :) I would love to attend a meet and read social of some kind. Where we meet, have a catch up and discuss, and spend some time reading our books together :) I do travel often and I also attend the gym, mainly lifting weights, which I'm also happy to for someone to come join me. :)

reINcarnate by Patrick Querney
reINcarnate

This is a mixture of horror and crime I think. You are following a serial killer who's soul jumps from person to person, going on a murder rampage, and a detective who is trying to find the murderer. This is an indie book so there is some spelling mistakes but that didn't take me out of the story and I ended up really enjoying it and getting a physical copy.
Hell House by Richard Matheson

A ghost/Haunted House story that I really enjoyed. The Author also wrote 'I am Legend'.
Buddhism Plain and Simple by Steve Hagen

I love coming back to this book when life is getting me down. I do find a resonate with Buddhism which I treat more like a philosophy then religion. I highly recommend this to anything who is curious about Buddhism philosophy :)
The Spellshop by Sarah Beth Durst
The Spellshop
by Sarah Beth Durst | Learn more and buy
Read in 2024 and I ended up loving it and it brought me back to Fantasy. I especially loved the sentient plants in the story, the plot, and that there is a small bit of romance but it does not lead to sex, nor is it the main focus and it makes sense (doesn't not fill forced or rushed). Already pre-ordered her next book set in the same world - The Enchanted Greenhouse.
