I can't write books so I review them instead
I love weird stories. The wackier, the better. It’s one of the reasons I love Joan Aiken’s Wolves Chronicles series. While I’ve never heard of this author before this book, I read that she had a reputation for coming up with wild stories. So I decided to get started with this one. Here is my review:…
I was very eager to read this book, not only because of its hype, but also because I thought it was an interesting way to go about telling a historical story. So let me just get right to the chase: Castellamare is an island far enough away from the mainland to be forgotten, but not…
Thank you to Penguin Random House and the First to Read program for this ARC in exchange for an honest review! What attracted me to this novel was its unique idea: it’s rare to see a female embezzler, especially one who is a homemaker. I wanted to know how the author would go about telling…

I received this novel as an advanced copy from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. I absolutely loved the cover art for this novel; it is what drew me to it in the first place. I was also excited to read a thriller from a male perspective, as that has been quite rare in…
This novel really reminded me of Before I Go To Sleep by S.J. Watson so I thought it would be interesting to see how another author would put their spin on it. Here is my review: Ever since her diving accident, 34-year-old marine biologist Kyra Winthrop can’t remember anything. Apart from brief flashes of the last…
I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. After so many thrillers that focus on the wife, I thought it would be a good change to read one that focuses on the husband and child. That was my motivation for requesting this book … so here is…
Thank you to Penguin Random House and their First to Read program for this ARC in exchange for an honest review. I’m not a big fan of historical fiction and if you go through my blog, you will see that I haven’t read very many books from this genre. I always feel a bit guilty…
