The IT Girl by Ruth Ware

May 9, 2023May 8, 2023 michele

The #1 New York Times bestselling author of the “claustrophobic spine-tingler” (People) One by One returns with an unputdownable mystery following a woman on the search for answers a decade after her friend’s murder. I love a book that I don't have it all figured out right away, or at all. The It Girls by Ruth Ware is very… Continue reading The IT Girl by Ruth Ware

No Exit by Taylor Adams

April 20, 2023April 16, 2023 melanie

“The difference between a hero and a victim? Timing.” “Up and down lost all meaning. Her world became a violent tumble-dryer, an endless, crashing kaleidoscope.” This book follows Darby, a college student who, during a blizzard and stranded at an isolated highway rest stop in the mountains, discovers a kidnapped child hidden in a car… Continue reading No Exit by Taylor Adams

Behind Closed Doors by B.A. Paris

March 24, 2023March 21, 2023 melanie

“We go downstairs and in the hall, he takes my coat from the cupboard and holds it open while I slip my arms into it. In the drive outside, he holds the car door for me and waits until I’m in. As he closes it behind me, I can’t help thinking it’s a shame he’s… Continue reading Behind Closed Doors by B.A. Paris

It’s One Of Us by J.T. Ellison

March 21, 2023March 20, 2023 michele

This was a fast paced thriller about hope, loss, & the secrets in marriage. It was tense but also sad at times. A content warning: this one talks about IVF, miscarriage, & pregnancy issues. It doesn't go into too much detail but miscarriage and loss is a theme in this book. I highly enjoyed this… Continue reading It’s One Of Us by J.T. Ellison

The Family Upstairs by Lisa Jewell

March 17, 2023March 21, 2023 melanie

“I know it sounds like it was all just a terrible disaster. Of course, it does. Any situation involving four dead bodies is clearly far from ideal.” “It's very strange, looking back, how accepting children can be of the oddest scenarios.” The novel tells the stories of three characters. Libby, who was adopted and wanting… Continue reading The Family Upstairs by Lisa Jewell

The Housemaid’s Secret by Freida McFadden

March 5, 2023November 27, 2023 michele

This is the second book in The Housemaid series. I think this could be read as a standalone, but I recommend reading the first book before reading this one. This one is also a thriller, also has some of the same characters as book one, and also contains some great twists. Millie is back to… Continue reading The Housemaid’s Secret by Freida McFadden

The question is… did he kill her?” This novel follows a married couple, Sarah and Adam… Continue reading The Perfect Marriage by Jeneva Rose

The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides

February 27, 2023February 25, 2023 melanie

“...we often mistake love for fireworks - for drama and dysfunction. But real love is very quiet, very still. It's boring, if seen from the perspective of high drama. Love is deep and calm - and constant.” “Choosing a lover is a lot like choosing a therapist. We need to ask ourselves, is this someone… Continue reading The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides
