  • THE BEST OF FRIENDS BY: LUCINDA BERRY

    THE BEST OF FRIENDS BY: LUCINDA BERRY

    This was a tough one for me! Overall I liked it… it was an interesting idea. Pretty messed up, in all the right ways. Exactly what you are looking for  when it comes to a thriller.     I chugged through this book and found the premise so interesting I sometimes had a hard time putting…

  • UNSPEAKABLE THINGS BY: JESS LOUREY

    UNSPEAKABLE THINGS BY: JESS LOUREY

    Interesting book! What intrigued me about it was that it was based on a true story. I am out of true crime documentaries to watch, so I thought why not read one? Yet, that’s not really what this book is about. Which I knocked a full star off for.      The book is about Cassie and her…

  • IF YOU TELL BY: GREGG OLSEN

    IF YOU TELL BY: GREGG OLSEN

    THIS IS NUTS.First of all I agree with many reviewers who say, sometimes reality is worse than fiction. So incredibly true. You hear about torture or watch it in movies but it hits differently when it is true.     This isn’t the most beautifully written book. I respect that the author wanted to make it  story-like…

  • EVERYTHING WE DIDN’T SAY BY: NICOLE BAART

    EVERYTHING WE DIDN’T SAY BY: NICOLE BAART

    This is a tough one for me…     I enjoyed the book. I’m a sucker for a good (even bad) thriller. I seem to like the ride of the thrill whether I expect what is coming or not. This ‘thriller’ or ‘who-dun-it’ – whatever you want to call it – was a SLOW BURN. Everything felt very dragged out.   …

  • BILLIE SOMEDAY: THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME BY: ANDY GRAHAM

    BILLIE SOMEDAY: THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME BY: ANDY GRAHAM

    This was a cute book. I’m still unsure of the intended audience. I was nervous it would be graphic or adult fantasy, but then it wasn’t. It also wasn’t ‘cute’. Very interesting road the author decided to take with the story.     I enjoyed the way all the animals spoke. The language they used. The way…

  • 3RD DEGREE BY: JAMES PATTERSON

    3RD DEGREE BY: JAMES PATTERSON

    My quick one-two about this author and his style of writing (at least at this point in his career) is that he is SUCH A MALE. (ha)     I’m not sure what I even mean by that but you can just tell that he is living some little boy fantasy. Add on that he is writing from…

  • THE SHADOW BOX BY: LUANNE RICE

    THE SHADOW BOX BY: LUANNE RICE

    What to say about this one …..     I will say, I did overall enjoy it. I thought it was messed up in all the right ways that readers like us want these books to be.      The shadow box thing was … interesting. Kinda felt like a forced title. I mean, it wasn’t really…
