Good Girl by Mary Kubica

I was recommended this book because of my love of dark novels and I must say that this novel is definitely sinister. It was slow going at first but I’m glad I pushed through with it! This novel revolves around one incident: the kidnapping of Mia Dennett, daughter of a prominent judge. The reader glimpses…

One Plus One by Jojo Moyes

This book is on the lighter side of things and it was a nice change from my usual genre. It was sweet and touching and just an overall good book. Jessica has a very difficult life. Her ex-husband has done a vanishing act and can’t be counted on for any financial help. Her son is…

Positive by David Wellington

I didn’t think this book would be that interesting when I first heard about it. I mean, there have been so many novels about zombies that I really didn’t think that this one would be any different. However, I was pleasantly surprised and thoroughly enjoyed this book! Finnegan lives with his family in a relatively…

A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness

I’ve had my eye on this book for a while. It’s been on various reading lists and has got quite a bit of praise. I used to be a big fan of fantasy novels at one point but it’s been a while since I’ve read one so I thought this book would be the perfect…

What Alice Forgot by Liane Moriarty

If I compared this novel to the ones I’ve been reading so far, this is definitely on the light hearted side. It was a quick read but a great one and I’m definitely happy that I gave it a shot! Alice is happily married and thrilled to be expecting her first child at the age…

As soon as I finished my exams,  I found myself bombarded by a bunch of books that I had placed a hold on now becoming available. So now, I’m in a rush to get through them all while trying to balance all of my other commitments. This is the first book that I decided to…

The Postmistress by Sarah Blake

I actually read this book in high school and it made me really emotional and teary. Almost 5 years later, I STILL have the same reaction. That says a lot about the book right away. This story involves the lives of 3 women in the 1940s: Frankie Bard is a radio announcer and her goal…

The Flight of Gemma Hardy by Margot Livesey

This is a change from the trend of books I’ve been reading and it made a very distinct impression on me. It is definitely one of the better reads and I wouldn’t mind buying this book! Orphaned at a young age, Gemma is taken in by her uncle and comes to live with him in…

Ha’Penny: Small Change series by Jo Walton

This book was a tad bit of a challenge for me in the beginning because it had been a while since I read the first book. But it didn’t take me long to get right into it and blaze through it! Viola Lark loves the theater. She even left her whole privileged life behind for…
