I'm a little jealous of someone who hasn't come across the series because it's just that good. I wish I could go back and read them all again for the first time.
The Book of Magic by Alice Hoffman, 5 Stars
The Last Guest by Tess Little, 3 Stars
I recommend The Last Guest to anyone who loves a good mystery. It's a fun story to pick apart and try to figure out who the murderer really is.
In Another Light by AJ Banner, 3.5 Stars
I would recommend In Another Light to fans of Lisa Jewell and Shari Lapena.
Nice Girls by Catherine Dang, 4 Stars
Dang paints compelling characters who perfectly capture that awkward stage between high school and adulthood when we are all just trying to figure out who we are. Set against the backdrop of a possible serial killer of course.
Never Saw Me Coming My Vera Kurian, 4 Stars
It actually reminded me slightly of American Psycho, the college years, as told by Patrick Bateman's female double.
The Last House on Needless Street by Catriona Ward, 4 Stars
The Last House on Needless Street is a crazy, spooky, twisted page turner that you don't want to miss.
Beautiful Country by Qian Julie Wang, 4 Stars
ntry is really a breathtaking and heart-wrenching first account of the trials that undocumented immigrants face when they come to America.
The Family Plot by Megan Collins, 4 Stars
If you are looking for an atmospheric, spooky horror tale that will keep you up long past your bedtime, this is it.
My Heart is a Chainsaw by Stephen Graham Jones, 4 Stars
My Heart is a Chainsaw is a masterpiece and likely to be a valuable edition to any horror movie aficionado's bookshelf.
The Perfect Family by Robyn Harding, 3.5 Stars
The Perfect Family is definitely a thriller for our times. It's a fast-paced page-turner, where the reader is guessing the whole time as to who is behind the attacks on the family home. Special thanks to Netgalley and Gallery Books for an advanced e-galley in exchange for my honest review. This one is out August 10. Get your copy!
