I can't write books so I review them instead
So far, my experiences with Clare Mackintosh’s books have been positive. I absolutely loved I Let You Go, her debut novel. I See You, while not as intense of a thriller as her debut, was still a very good read. I went into this book with high expectations, wondering how twisted the story would get. Here is my…
I received this novel as an advance copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I waited a long time before getting into this novel. Something about this story just made me hesitant. And then I got bogged down by work and other novels and never got a chance to go back to it…

I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I love reading foreign books. The author’s cultural background and viewpoint always intersperses with the story to give it a unique twist and give me a little insight on their lifestyle, which is just as enjoyable to discover as…
Remember how I always say that I have to read the first books in the series before I read another? Well, I broke that rule with this novel! I read the premise for it and just found it to be too good to ignore. I didn’t want to wait until I had gotten the first…
This is the sequel to The Program and the conclusion of this story. I was surprised by the speed at which I was able to acquire this book; I had had to wait for quite a while to get my hands on a copy of the first novel! Either way, here are my thoughts on…
