Book Reviews

  • LOCK EVERY DOOR BY: RILEY SAGER

    Other reviewers will say the book gets weird… I say, is this really happening?  This is a six day book. The story spans a total of six days. Switching from one of the six days to present day. I might be biased because I think I have an author crush on Riley Sager. I’ve enjoyed…

  • THE RAKE MISTAKE BY: ERICA RIDLEY

    Most charming book I’ve read thus far. What a wonderful, quick book. It’s short, which is sad as I could have kept reading – but the way Ridley writes pulls you right in. It’s the writing style I most enjoy, when conversations pull you along the story. And these conversations – phew! – I could easily…

  • WE ARE THE BRENNANS BY: TRACEY LANGE

    This book surprised me! I became quickly obsessed with all the characters and found the story addicting. There was nothing really ‘special’ about this book. Nothing ground breaking that you thought, WOW I never would have thought of that. You will definitely not say, ‘Wow, I didn’t see that coming.’ (ha) This book is very…

  • THE GIVER OF STARS BY: JOJO MOYES

    I really enjoyed this book! Blown away that ‘Packhorse Librarians’ was a real thing … and can we bring them back? How cool.     It’s crazy the amount of emotion the author was able to pull from me. I found myself laughing out loud, crying or just yelling at people (characters) while reading. I was easily…

  • ONCE THERE WERE WOLVES BY: CHARLOTTE MCCONAGHY

    Where to start with this book? I had to grab my phone and voice all my thoughts together immediately. I felt a wild feeling. I have no idea the best way to describe this other than, it was insanely magical. It’s a book about wolves, sure. Yet, it’s a book about so much more than that. It’s a book that makes you…

  • THE GLASS CASTLE BY: JEANNETTE WALLS

    I loved The Glass Castle. I loved how messed up it was and how we saw it through a child’s eyes. (Of course, I wouldn’t wish this kind of life on my worst enemy.) What really stood out was how unapologetic the writing was. This is a memoir that isn’t seeking pity. Jeanette just tells it like it is…

  • THE NIGHT SHE DISAPPEARED BY: LISA JEWELL

    Another wonderful slow burn from Jewell. She really is a master of weaving and bobbing and lifting you up so high that you inevitably crash when she rips the rug out from under you.    I loved the back and forth timeline. I loved slowly discovering the past along with the characters. The characters were lovable…
