GOLDEN GIRL BY ELIN HILDERBRAND
I always go into a Hilderbrand book with anopen mind but realistic that I might not enjoy it. It’s a 50/50 chance for me. I started out with a big eye roll when I realized we were going into the … ‘super natural’. My overall feeling is this book is boring and drawn out to give…

THE LONDON SÉANCE SOCIETY BY SARAH PENNER
Like other reviewers who read The Lost Apothecary I was excited for Penner’s next book. The title and cover intrigued me enough to pick it up without a second thought. I noticed the goodreads rating dropping and was confused because the first few chapters were so good. As the book progressed, I started understanding. Never question my goodreads friends (ha). This is…

THE ONLY ONE LEFT BY RILEY SAGER
Let’s start this review off by saying, I’m a Riley Sager mega fan. Now, let’s talk book. If I had to describe this book in one word the answer would be ‘messy’. The overall plot… messy. The ‘setups’ to try to confuse the reader were … silly, coincidental and unbelievable. There were so many holes…

ANXIOUS PEOPLE BY: FREDRIK BACKMAN

APPLES NEVER FALL BY: LIANE MORIARTY

The Paris Apartment By: Lucy Foley
Starting this review off with a plea, ‘Don’t be mad at me!’ I do feel a slight moral obligation to be real with you about the books I read. First bit of truth I need to give you is, dang this book was HYPED UP. …. and it did not live up to said hype. What…

GWENDY’S MAGIC FEATHER BY: RICHARD CHIZMAR, STEPHEN KING
Can this even be considered a book? This book was frustrating. It is ‘endorsed’ by Stephen King .. so you immediately think – well this can’t be that bad. The first book was co-written by King and Chizmar. King started it, couldn’t finish and then let Chizmar work through it. The second book is written…
