The historical research did go some way to winning me over in the end, but there's still a lot I didn't like. A shame, since I had high hopes! I'll hopefully get a review up on the blog tomorrow!

Ok Has anyone else noticed on Goodreads that ebooks often get these crazy high reviews and you read the book and think WTF?? I'm calling BS. Plus how all the reviews are basically just summary/synopsis with little actual REVIEW?? All it's doing is making me never want to read straight to publish ebooks. 😡😡https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1811625272
Back out on the balcony with my tablet. Just starting The Devil's Prayer - so keen for this! #currentlyreading
In response to @MrBook and his post earlier, here is where I am at. I challenged myself to a book per week. I plan to slowly increase it each year. :3 Litsy is the best thing ever, and I am so glad to have found it. You guys can add me on Goodreads if you wish: https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/5127653-e-m-jenkinson
My reading buddy! Okay, that aside I finally finished The Devil's Prayer. I give it between a two and a three. There are a lot of inconsistencies coupled with errors that make it a difficult read, but that aside it is fairly entertaining. Graphic content earns it a trigger warning. It is a horror story and deals with the occult. Thanks NetGalley for a copy to review.
It's taking a bit to get into, but the diary like entries are written way better than the third person portions.
I decided to take a look at other reviews earlier before laying down to read myself to sleep. So far, I can't help but wonder if I'm reading the same book all the other reviewers read. Oh well, time to trudge onward!
I've hit about 20% of the way through. The concept is great, but it's like I'm reading a rough draft. Finishing will be a challenge.
The writing is so clunky I barely made it through 10% of the book.
