The Murder of Roger Ackroyd by Agatha Christie

I’m ashamed to say that before my detective fiction course, I have never read a novel by Agatha Christie. I know all about her, of course, and I knew I should read something by her but I never did. I guess I didn’t know where to start. Even though this book was an assigned reading,…

The First Wife by Erica Spindler

I’m back into the thriller genre (again) with yet another novel that claims to be shocking and scary and all that other stuff. Well, here’s what I thought of it: Like most girls, Bailey has always dreamed of a knight in shining armor. When her mother passes away, she desperately needs a miracle. When she…

The Ice Twins by S.K. Tremayne

When I first read the teaser on the back of the novel, I knew I had to read this novel. It sent chills down my back and I could envision it going in so many different directions. As expected, I would never have guessed the ending. So without further ado, here is the review: Losing…

The Pocket Wife by Susan Crawford

I’m back to my theme on psychological thrillers. I swear, there has been such a surge in these novels and they all have a female lead in them. I mean, it’s interesting but eventually they just start to become repetitive. Either way, I gave this one a try. Dana Catrell is the unhappy wife of…

Memory Man by David Baldacci

I’ve heard a lot of good things about this author and I wanted to start a new mystery series. So I decided to start with this book. It is the first one to be written and I have no idea when the next one will be out (hopefully soon!) but I’m excited to give it…

Second Life by S.J. Watson

I actually read Before I Go To Sleep by this author a few years ago and I loved it. It was one of my first psychological thrillers. Naturally, I was excited to hear about this new book and decided to give it a shot. When Julia’s sister is found murdered, it hits her hard. Although…

The Hellbound Heart by Clive Barker

I had a lot of trouble with this author because he has written so many books! I had first started with this one novel that I had placed on hold for a while now, only to discover that it was a (sort of) sequel to this book! So I obviously had to read this one!…

I Am Pilgrim by Terry Hayes

As has been my trend, I chose this book because it has gotten some raving reviews that deemed it worth checking out. Surprisingly, it took me quite a while to finish the novel. I don’t know if it was because it was long or because I was just moving through it slowly. Anyways, here is…
