She’s Not Sorry by Mary Kubica

May 16, 2024May 3, 2024 michele

Granite Harbor by Peter Nichols

May 15, 2024May 3, 2024 michele

If your looking for a dark, gritty crime novel then Granite Harbor by Peter Nichols is the perfect read. This one was so scenic that I could almost feel the cold Maine air while reading this one!

Only If You’re Lucky by Stacy Willingham

February 21, 2024February 27, 2024 michele

This is the third book from Stacy Willingham that I have read and I think this is the one I have liked the least. This is a slow burn where all the action happened in the last 1/8 of the book. This was a drawn out version of Pretty Little Liars meets Heathers. I think… Continue reading Only If You’re Lucky by Stacy Willingham

The Collective by Alison Gaylin

August 4, 2023August 2, 2023 melanie

“None of these monsters are evil. It’s the evil of others that makes them powerful. Beaten down by the world, shunned, robbed of what they love, they don’t curl up and die. They don’t apologize. They fight back. They get bigger, stronger, more terrifying. You are a monster. We all are. Be grateful for THAT.”… Continue reading The Collective by Alison Gaylin
