Of course a guilty pleasure! Last part of my 3 week book line up!
I have 30 minutes before my first conference call, so I can get a little bit of reading done!
pickI love this book. The writing was kind of strange to me (third person, in present tense. I don‘t think I‘ve read too many books like that), but the story was fantastic.
pickI really enjoyed this book. I happened across it at my local library and I‘m glad I picked it up. It kept me wanting more and I had no idea who the killer was until the very end. I will definitely be reading other books by this author!
so-so⭐⭐
This book was a let down. The plot and storyline had potential but the twists fell flat and were too predictable. I also felt as the the writing itself was...off. Sort of...jumpy, I guess is the best word I can think of. It just didn't flow nicely.
so-soThis was part suspense novel, part women's fiction. The plot was clever, there are lots of twists and turns, but the ending was too quick, it felt like i was missing an important part of the story. If your looking for a easy, quick read, then The Other Widow is that book.
panAs a thriller this was incredibly disappointing. It was pretty slow but there was just enough to keep me hanging on to the end. The ending was boring (lame) and I feel duped by the marketing. It felt more like women's fiction with elements of suspense thrown in just to appeal to a wider audience. I wish I could get back my wasted time.
panSuper predictable almost to the point I wondered if I read this book before!
so-soBook club selection this month. We all agreed that this wasn't as good as her last book. There was so much going on and a lot left unresolved in the end. Meh. (At least the wine pairing was good!)
so-soMaybe ...if you go into it expecting it to be a character study of the things women go through and how they handle it. #marchintoreading #marchmadness
so-soMeh. I picked this up because it was marketed as suspense. It's more of a women's fiction dealing with infidelity. Not my cup of tea.
Bookmail!!! I won this on Facebook and it came today! So excited!! Thank you, @WilliamMorrow 💖
pickLots of layers to uncover, plus twists & turns that kept me second-guessing my conclusions throughout the book. Told from the POV of 3 women when a car wreck takes the life of Joe: Dorrie (mistress), Karen (wife) & Maggie (investigator) & it looks like it wasn't an accident. My full review w/recipe for Earl Grey Hot Chocolate inspired by the book on blog post (link below). Also, I got an extra HB copy I'm giving away on the post-stop by to enter!
The whole reason for my current sleep deprivation!! I cannot put it down!!!
It was a long, long week and since there will be extroverting & being festive required of me tomorrow night, tonight is comprised of one of my current reads, mac-n-cheese from a package, jammies & general mindless coach potato behavior. #wildfridaynight
My night. A book and a blanket. 😊 All I need now is a cup of tea. ☕

Our heroine decides to make a run for it... and I'm wondering how much longer can I read at my desk going unnoticed? 📚 Anyone reading a good #thriller these days?
The hand turkeys make another appearance! New paperbacks hot off the press (and on sale in December!). What are you reading over Thanksgiving?
Day18 #photoadaynov16 #headlesscovers Why do I ever doubt the over abundance of my book shelves? I couldn't think of any headless covers, but I looked around and found all of these--headless or partially headless--including the new book for review that this post is tagged under. #bookquilt

pickThis book! I had so many thoughts while listening to this! The characters are very well-developed, and the plot is nicely woven. Twisty, but not unpredictable. I might have preferred the ending with a few more loose ends, especially with these leading ladies! You can't wrap up that much crazy.
panJust finished this book and ultimately I didn't care about two of the women, and could only muster mild interest and enthusiasm for Maggie. Kind of a jumbled mess of genres. And when the small twist arrived, I still didn't care because I didn't connect with the characters.
