Book Review: Shaniquah’s Revenge: I’m Not One To Be Played With by David Moore Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5)

 

Shaniquah had the life people envy—her own thriving business, loyal friends, and a man she believed had her back. But Malik, her smooth-talking fiancé, was playing a whole different game. When the truth comes out—lies, betrayal, and a side chick named Sasha—Shaniquah’s world doesn’t just crack, it explodes.

Instead of falling apart, Shaniquah links up with the one woman she should hate most—Sasha. What starts as an uneasy alliance turns into a dangerous partnership, both of them laser-focused on dismantling Malik’s life piece by piece. But in the world of love and lies, revenge isn’t a straight line—it’s a maze. Malik isn’t going down without a fight, and every move Shaniquah makes forces her to face not just her enemies, but her own scars.

This isn’t just a story about payback—it’s about power, resilience, and what happens when a woman decides she’s done playing nice.

What I Loved

  • The Shaniquah–Sasha dynamic – Two women caught in the same betrayal flipping the script together is pure fire.

  • The grit and emotion – The betrayal cuts deep, and you feel every bit of it.

  • The pacing – Drama builds quick and keeps you locked in until the last page.

What Could Be Better

The heat between characters sometimes overshadows the strategic moves, but if you like your revenge served sizzling, it works.

Final Thoughts

Shaniquah’s Revenge kicks off The Shaniquah Series with a bang—mixing betrayal, lust, and street-smart survival into a ride that’s as emotional as it is ruthless. If you love urban fiction where the heroine doesn’t just bounce back—she comes back swinging—this one’s for you.

Review: This Cursed House by Del Sandeen Rating: ★★★★½ (4.5/5)

Image
Del Sandeen’s This Cursed House is a lush, unsettling Southern gothic debut that masterfully blends supernatural horror with razor-sharp social commentary. Set in 1962 New Orleans , the novel follows Jemma Barker , a young Black woman seeking escape from her haunted life in Chicago , only to find herself entangled in the strange and cursed Duchon family . What I especially liked: Sandeen’s prose is rich and immersive, steeped in the sensory weight of the Louisiana setting—the oppressive heat, the scent of magnolia, the claustrophobic creak of an old house steeped in secrets. The portrayal of colorism within the Duchon family adds layers of tension beyond the supernatural, making the human conflicts just as chilling as the curse itself. Jemma is a compelling protagonist—flawed, intuitive, and deeply human—and the way she slowly unravels the family’s history feels both authentic and haunting. The pacing mirrors the genre’s best traditions, starting slow but steadily tightening the no...
