The Thursday Murder Club

It's going to made into a movie soon. It will be interesting to see what was done with it.

I'm reading it now, and can barely put it down...don't tell me anything!

I also read "A Heart That Works' by Rob Delaney this morning and cried and laughed, got my heart broken and mended again...."

What did you think of the Matthew Perry book? Its on my Hold list at the e Libby library.

Black Cake

Really great and easy read!

Last read “ Between Two Kingdoms” by Suleika Jaouad. A memoir of a life interrupted. Great book, she also is the narrator on the audio.

I just devoured The Invisible Life of Addie Larue. I know I'm late to the game but it was certainly worth the wait.

The Many Daughters of Afong Moy by Jamie Ford. I read this for a book club meeting. I liked discussing the book more than reading it. Had so much hope this one was going to be so good, but it fell flat for me. Anyone read it and like it?

The wicked king — the cruel prince series !

The gift by Vladimir Nabokov

I want to read that book! I love Ruth Ware's books.

I enjoyed that book too.

Loved that series.

"A Man Called Ove" - very good story about kindness and community.

Just finished “ Their Eyes Were Watching God” this now in the top five of my favorite books.

Looking for Jane

Lessons in chemistry by Bonnie Garmus. I loved it!

Darkling by Yasmine Galenorn (Otherworld / Sisters of the Moon #3)

Spare by Prince Harry
It was meh. 🙃

It happened one summer - Tessa Bailey!
Might be my favorite read of 2023 so far 💕

Just finished Sundial by Catriona Ward. It was very, very good. Left me with lots to unpack.
Just started The Book eaters by Sunyi Dean.

Everything I Never Told You - Celeste Ng

This book will absolutely pull at your heart strings. Ng tells the story with such attention to detail. I left a more full review under the book page itself, but if you are looking for a book that honestly tells the story of sibling relations, the struggles of fitting in, and the experience of loss— this one is it.

The last thing he told me

Without Sanctuary-James Allen

The last book I read was Spare by Prince Harry.
It was ok. I had such high expectations for it. :/

These silent woods

I just finished-in less than 24 hours-The Housemaid by Frieda Mcfadden

what lies in the woods

Just finished “The Other Emily” by Dean Koontz and I’m not sure how I feel about it. I feel like it was two separate stories sewn together to try and mesh. The first 5 parts were all mystery, then the last part had a sci-fi twist with flat ending. It was going well, till about halfway and I stuck with it to see how it ended.

I just finished the audiobook for Spare by Prince Harry. It was interesting.

Winter in Paradise by Elin Hilderbrand

Verity by Colleen Hoover

Spare by Prince Harry

I just finished reading “The Wife Upstairs” by Freida McFadden. Brilliant, I loved it! Just when you think you have it all figured out…

Just finished Read with Jenna's pick, Sam. I wasn't a big fan of how it was written at the beginning, but it evolved with time as the main character aged. I enjoyed it.

Picture in the Sand by Peter Blauner- excellent!

I finished Counterfeit by Kirstin Chen last night. It was such a fun quick read.

I just finished "Kindred" by Octavia E. Butler. I was surprised that I loved it so much. I am not a fan of science fiction/fantasy so I did not think I would enjoy the time travel aspect of the book. The time travel did not bother me at all.

I really liked that series. The second book was my favorite

I just finished The Girls in the Water. Started off really good - almost a bit exciting trying to work out "who did it" but towards the end it just started to fall flat. The plot started to go all over the show and it was a lot of writing for a pretty bland ending. The female characters are meant to be strong but start to unravel and almost become a bit immature.

My Year of Rest and Relaxation, and it was surprisingly really good. I tend to be wary of overhyped books since I've been extremely disappointed before, but this one was shockingly quite nice.

Daisy Jones & the six. I thought this would be an easy 5 star but unfortunately it was boring most of the time. I just didn't like that the whole book was in this interview kind of style, and that they talked so much about the songs, but it got really good at the end, I shed a few tears

I just finished this and I was sucked right in. Such an intense read in all the right ways. Dark, gothic, romantic, terrifying. The main character gave me serious Wednesday Addams vibes, which I loved because I've been craving more since watching the show lol. The interaction between the 2 main characters gave me life, even though the book centers around death. Not your typical paranormal romance, but can't recommend it enough!

The immortal life of Henriette Lacks

Exit West by Mohsin Hamid

Echoes of evil by heather graham
