All The Dangerous Things by Stacy Willingham

May 1, 2023April 28, 2023 michele

MEMORIES CAN BE DISTORTED AND SO CAN THE TRUTH. All The Dangerous Things by Stacy Willingham was a slow burn with unreliable characters. I loved the moody atmosphere and the tension that continually built throughout until the very end. I was so close to creating a board like Isabelle's to guess who the bad guy… Continue reading All The Dangerous Things by Stacy Willingham

The Bandit Queens by Parini Shroff

April 11, 2023April 6, 2023 michele

This was a humorous story, although it used dark humor, that covered abuse, gender, caste, religion, patriarchy, sisterhood, and resilience. I love a book with a satisfying ending, and this didn't disappoint. The premise of this one had me hooked right away. This is set in India. Geeta's husband (Ramesh) left her 5 years ago… Continue reading The Bandit Queens by Parini Shroff

The Angel Maker by Alex North

March 16, 2023March 15, 2023 michele

A dark, suspenseful new thriller about the mysteries of fate, the unbreakable bond of siblings, and a notorious serial killer who was said to know the future. If your familiar with Alex North's work, this has the same feel as his previous novels The Whisper Man and The Shadows. The main idea in this book… Continue reading The Angel Maker by Alex North

Girl, Forgotten

February 6, 2023February 23, 2023 michele

by Karin Slaughter. If you liked Pieces of Her by Slaughter, you would really like this one. In my opinion, this book is far better than the first and could be read as a stand-alone.This book starts out years later, after Andrea has joined the US Marshals. So right away, her character has changed &… Continue reading Girl, Forgotten
