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

It’s One Of Us by J.T. Ellison
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.

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
