Reader Reviews

★★★★Cassandra Bergman

So this book started out a little slow for me, BUT once it picked up I didn’t want to put it down. This book has supernatural elements and a small town with bullying. The story was wild and the ending had me wanting more! I hope there is another book or something because I have questions.

★★★★★Kat M

This was a strong start to the Angry Hornet Nest series, it had that horror element that I wanted and thought was a strong opening chapter to this world. Stoney Brooks has a strong style for the genre and was glad it was so well written. I was invested in the characters and thought worked well in the world, and enjoyed the supernatural element that I was looking for and I’m excited to read more in this world and author.I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving
