“Hope is a powerful thing. But be mindful. It’s only as good as the object you place in it.” I’m a big fan of dystopian, and I feel the author set up this world well. You live in a world where your standing is everything, and sometimes you have no standing. Either you blend in,… Continue reading The Outlands, Tyler Edwards

Every Last Fear, Alex Finlay
Every once in a while, I’m lucky enough to snag a new book at my local library before everyone lines up waiting for it. Every Last Fear is a book that is going to have a very long waitlist. I love how the blurb sets you up, knowing this book is riddled with tragedy. It… Continue reading Every Last Fear, Alex Finlay
The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires, Grady Hendrix
This book has been well-reviewed, and I’m glad for that because I didn’t write many notes while reading. I started reading it and wouldn’t have put it down except bedtime came, and I’m a stickler for sleep. It starts charming enough, with a, we’re bored, let’s make a better book club than the boring one… Continue reading The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires, Grady Hendrix
10 Books to Look Forward to in April
When I originally was planning this post, I came across so many YA books that I knew I had to make a seperate post for those. You can read that post here. But now we get to the books of other genres that I am super excited to read and I hope you find some… Continue reading 10 Books to Look Forward to in April
End of March TBR
I think I finally have my e-reader situation sorted so I can read more books! I have a new app that I don't 100% love, but it will do. I really don't like change so that could be why I don't love this app, but I do hope to get used to it. Let's get… Continue reading End of March TBR
The Wife Upstairs, Rachel Hawkins
Told through alternating points of view, The Wife Upstairs is a thriller that slowly creeps up on you. It makes you wonder how their stories will come together. Jane is sketchy right off, you know she makes some questionable decisions, and she’s not exactly on the right side of the law sometimes. But she’s also… Continue reading The Wife Upstairs, Rachel Hawkins
The Perfect Daughter, D.J. Palmer
Wow! This is a book that draws you in and doesn’t let go from the very start. I love when an author gives you an unreliable narrator written so well, you can’t trust what you’re reading. Because Penny suffers from DID, she can’t be entirely sure of her actions because she has multiple alters. Her… Continue reading The Perfect Daughter, D.J. Palmer
Gathering Dark, Candice Fox
Fox is one of my most favorite thriller authors, and if you haven’t read her Crimson Lake series, you need to. So when I saw she had a new book coming out, I raced to request this from Macmillian/Tor because I needed to have it. It did not disappoint. Here we have opposing female leads,… Continue reading Gathering Dark, Candice Fox
The Good Sister, Sally Hepworth
This is a book that sucks you in and makes you suspicious, right from the start. Because of how easy it would be to spoil this, I will keep my review short. Hepworth built this fantastic atmosphere that has you anxiously waiting for the shoe to drop. While I suspected what was happening, it in… Continue reading The Good Sister, Sally Hepworth
The Girl in Cell 49B, Dorian Box
Last week I reviewed book 1, The Hiding Girl. You can read that review here. I received this book as an ARC from Bookish and worried that I wouldn’t be able to follow the story because it’s the second book in a series. I bought book 1, and raced through it because I loved it… Continue reading The Girl in Cell 49B, Dorian Box
