This was a murder mystery told in dual timelines. I love dual timelines and discovering things while the current story is taking place. I think this is for fans of Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None & Richard Osman's Thursday Murder Club. Frances Adams spends her life trying to prevent/solve her own murder. In 1965… Continue reading How To Solve Your Own Murder by Kristen Perrin

Fangirl Down by Tessa Bailey
I've recently become a Tessa Bailey fan. This book was no exception and I loved everything about it. I was excited that this is book#1 in her Big Shots series. I'm really loving the sport romance genre. Wells Whitaker is an infamous pro golfer, but lately his game has gone down the drain. He is… Continue reading Fangirl Down by Tessa Bailey
Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo
I re-read this one so that I could read the 2nd book and I remembered why I like Leigh Bardugo so much! This is an academic fantasy you could get lost in. Alex (Galaxy) Stern gets an offer to go to Yale after being the sole survivor of a multiple homicide. Once at Yale, Alex… Continue reading Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo
The Rule Book by Sarah Adams
I'm fairly new to Sarah Adams but I loved this cute (smutty) romance. This is the enemies to lovers trope and I really get into that one. The plot of this one is right up my alley and it is a sports romance as well. The plot: Nora Mackenzie’s entire career lies in the hands… Continue reading The Rule Book by Sarah Adams
Gallant by V.E. Schwab
This was a very ghoulish atmospheric, gothic type book. If your looking for that vibe, this book will have you covered. I think this is a bit on the YA side as I feel like the plot and character development aren't as mature as her other books. But I still enjoyed this one for the… Continue reading Gallant by V.E. Schwab
The Lost Bookshop by Evie Woods, Evie Gaughan
This nod to bookshops by Woods and Gaughan was whimsical and charming. I'm always a fan of a book with magical realism, especially one with a bookstore! ‘The thing about books,’ she said ‘is that they help you to imagine a life bigger and better than you could ever dream of.’ On a quiet street… Continue reading The Lost Bookshop by Evie Woods, Evie Gaughan
Murder Road by Simone St. James
Murder Road is a typical St. James book. It's a mystery/thriller with a ghost story feel. Some people have to read her books with the lights on and this one is no exception. In the summer of July 1995, April and Eddie set out on what was supposed to be the romantic getaway, heading towards… Continue reading Murder Road by Simone St. James
The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson
I didn't know what to expect when going into this one and I think that is the best way. This is a non-fiction about the World's Fair in Chicago and the infamous serial killer, HH Holmes. This was packed full in information I never knew about and I thought was very interesting. The World Fair… Continue reading The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson
Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree
This is a cozy fantasy novel. I went into this one knowing nothing and was unsure what to think and ended up liking this cute story about found family. The MC, Viv, gives up her battling lifestyle and opens a coffee shop/bakery. But old and new rivals stand in the way of success — not… Continue reading Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree
