Behind Closed Doors by B.A. Paris

It has been a while since I have found myself unable to put a book down because it kept me on the edge of my seat. This is one of those books. After the number of thrillers I’ve read, I’m a lot more skeptical to positive reviews,  especially since I usually don’t agree with those…

The Butterfly Garden by Dot Hutchinson

When you read as much and as often as me, sometimes books can start to seem as if they are all the same. The story doesn’t really appear unique, the characters begin to blend into one, and everything just stops being exciting. When that happens, I know I need to shake things up and get…

The Alchemist’s Gift by Martin Rua

I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. When I began to read this novel, I had no idea that it was a translation. I also had not known that it was part of a series. At first, I considered reading the previous novel in the series…

The Lost Girls by Heather Young

There was a point in time when I was a huge fan of Kate Morton. I still like her work, but I used to be obsessed with every one of her books, and I would always be on the lookout for one of her new releases. The premise of this novel reminded me of the…

The Second Girl by David Swinson

I had heard this book being described as gritty, which immediately caught my attention. I like stories that capture the violence that is prevalent in society and I enjoy reading books that have a “raw” feeling to them. Based on the description, I felt that this book would be right for me. So here is…

A Study in Scarlet Women by Sherry Thomas

After reading A Study in Charlotte, I was ready to look for another novel that put a twist on the classic Sherlock Holmes story. I wanted to see what other retellings were out there and compare them to the original to see if they match up. I was especially interested in this book because it…
