I read The Suicide House last month and didn’t realize it was a book 2 when I had requested it as an ARC. I am not a fan of people comparing books by the same author, but I feel it’s necessary here. The Suicide House was a 5-star read for me. It had several points… Continue reading Some Choose Darkness, Charlie Donlea

The Suicide House, Charlie Donlea
I didn’t know this was a book 2 when I requested it and I hadn’t read book 1, Some Choose Darkness. I found you need not have read it to follow along, but I loved this one so much that I will go back and read it now. This book was simply amazing, yet there… Continue reading The Suicide House, Charlie Donlea

Then She Was Gone, Lisa Jewell
I’ve read and loved a few of Lisa’s newer books, so I’ve been trying to work my way through her back catalog, and overall I enjoyed this one. This is going to be kept vague so I don't spoil it. I like how she introduced different characters and then allowed them their own chapters to… Continue reading Then She Was Gone, Lisa Jewell
The Apartment, K.L. Slater
I felt myself being sucked in, unable to put the book down as I watched the hot mess that is Freya, repeatedly and naively ignore blatant red flags. Her desire for something affordable and stable wins out despite the warning signs. The premise of a desperate mother who just wants a place to live, a… Continue reading The Apartment, K.L. Slater
In the Dark, Loreth Anne White
I don't want to spoil this one, so I will skip my usual summary and try to keep anything that gives it away out of the review. I will post the blurb at the bottom. This one came recommended to me in KU, and it hooked me from the start. Normally when there is a… Continue reading In the Dark, Loreth Anne White
Gone by Midnight: Candice Fox
I have the first two books of this series in hardcover. So when I saw Candice had the new book coming out, I jumped at the chance to request this from Macmillan/Tor so I could read it, and I'm so glad I did. As far as the storyline of the missing boy, Richard, Fox gives… Continue reading Gone by Midnight: Candice Fox
