CAROLYN’S WISHLIST
I am a huge fan of Rhiannon Frater’s ‘As the World Dies‘ zombie series – if you haven’t read it yet then I can’t recommend it enough!! “Pretty When She Kills” is the second book from Rhiannon’s vampire series – I have book one on my Kindle already, and even though I haven’t read it yet I had to put book two on my wishlist any way. I’m certain I will love these books too. The links below are for the first book in the series “Pretty When She Dies” as there are no links for this one as yet.
