The Quiet Tenant by Clemence Michallon

March 10, 2024March 7, 2024 michele

The Quiet Tenant gives us a new take on serial killers that will make you think twice of the quiet, nice guy. The premise of this one hooked my right away.

The Covenant of Water by Abraham Verghese

October 11, 2023October 10, 2023 michele

The Covenant of Water is a door stopper that I wasn't sure was worth my time. I switched from print to audio to finish this one. The writing style is very lyrical and it is very slow moving but the characters are impressive. This book starts with an interesting premise. That someone in each generation… Continue reading The Covenant of Water by Abraham Verghese

Us Against You by Fredrik Backman

August 23, 2023August 21, 2023 michele

This is the follow-up to Beartown. I would suggest reading Beartown FIRST if you haven't read that before reading this one. This is about how a town can make hockey it's lifeblood. I felt like I could almost be living in this town. The excitement and tense feelings just jump right off the page. Have… Continue reading Us Against You by Fredrik Backman
