I dug the dual timelines and the fact that it had to have been tricky to alternate the narrative from first person to third person when weaving the past and present. It’s not complicated as other reviewers are claiming, rather it was masterful; more on that later. I can see why Paul would want to… Continue reading The Shadows, Alex North

Devoted, Dean Koontz
I might be a bit of a Koontz fan (who needs more bookshelves, and thus, has very disorganized shelves). Right now I’m lucky to have KU. And I’m really thankful that Koontz put Devoted into KU because as a person who lives off disability, I can’t buy his books right now. I want nothing more than… Continue reading Devoted, Dean Koontz
Crimson Lake, Candice Fox
Ted is a former police detective who was arrested for the abduction of a young girl named Claire. After 8 months, they release him as they don't have enough evidence. But he isn't out of the woods just yet, they can come after him any time they receive new evidence. So he heads North to… Continue reading Crimson Lake, Candice Fox
Little Darlings, Melanie Golding
Lauren has just given birth to twin boys Morgan and Riley, and while there isn't that insta-love that all the books talk about, she does grow to love them, immensely. Alone in the hospital with her boys, Lauren sees a vicious woman who threatens to take her boys, to steal them and replace them with… Continue reading Little Darlings, Melanie Golding
No Exit, Taylor Adams
This was one of the books I had in hardcover and mini-me did a photo shoot for it, so I'm including that photo too because it was fun to do. On the way to see her mother who is undergoing surgery for pancreatic cancer, Ashley is forced to stop at a rest stop because the… Continue reading No Exit, Taylor Adams
The Silent Patient, Alex Michaelides
I had received this ARC from Celadon books and it came with all sorts of goodies, including a newspaper they had created, which really enhanced the reading of the book. It was a really fun addition. Here's the pic of what came with it: How cool is that? Anyways, let's get to my review! Gah!… Continue reading The Silent Patient, Alex Michaelides
Bluff, Jane Stanton Hitchcock
It's hard to write a review without giving anything away, but I feel like I've done the book and the reviewers justice. While this is a very early ARC, rest assured that it is up for preorder, I will include a link at the bottom. Here's my review: Bluff starts off with a bang, literally.… Continue reading Bluff, Jane Stanton Hitchcock
The Last Woman in the Forest, Diane Les Becquets
This is my first book from this author and it was a great start to a new author for me. Here's my review: The premise that Marian works with dogs as part of her job already bumps the book up to 4-stars on that premise alone. The fact that the book is a suspenseful thriller… Continue reading The Last Woman in the Forest, Diane Les Becquets
An Anonymous Girl, Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen
I had read The Wife Between Us and really dug it, so when I saw An Anonymous Girl I definitely wanted to read it. As written in the blurb, we meet Jessica, a makeup artist, who takes care of her family which is hard to do without extra income. So when an opportunity arises, she… Continue reading An Anonymous Girl, Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen
