This seemed like a great story but I just couldn't get into it. I hate it when my brain doesn't do what I want.
I recommend this book for anyone looking for a suspense/mystery. Is that a genre? I don't know.
📚📖Happy Reading!📖📚

This was a decent read, this is the second Jane Corry book I've read, and I am not a fan, the story moves at a.decent pace but twists that are big feel like they aren't done right and so they don't hold.as much weight. 4 ⭐
15pts @Clwojick
This was a librarian pick, so I gave it a try. It was a little slow getting started, but it pulled me in. It had some fun twists and overall uplifting sentiments.
#BloodSisters #JaneCorry
This is a psychological thriller with 2 POV‘s. One sister is Kitty who cannot speak and has no memory of the accident. The other is Alison who knows the secret and feels guilty. The accident happened 15 years ago as 3 little girls went off to school and an hour later, one was dead. This story starts out slow but midway builds and flies to the end as the lies and truths come together. Explores the relationships of sisters.

This was a book club pick, a very easy read and lots of detail about prisons! It also has every possible trigger warning - self-harm, abuse, anxiety, strained family relationships, childhood trauma - plenty of "grit"! The chapters from the perspective of "Kitty", who has an acquired brain injury, are probably the most interesting part and they provide a great contrasting storyline. The men are shallow bit-parts but the women are fascinating!
What I get to start tonight! Hoping it‘s a good one 🧐 And I can add this to my #readingeurope2020 challenge for England. Just found out about this Challenge so it should be fun searching for books. Any recommendation‘s please let me know!
Just finished this psychological thriller about three girls who leave for school and one ends up dead. The story has a lot of twists and plots and will keep you wanting to read it to see what is going to happen
Getting ready to dive in again for #24b4monday. This was a story about two girls mainly. One is working in a prison teaching art and the other one is physically disabled from an accident. The story connects everything, but I felt like it was a bit disjointed and the twists were too much. It almost became a little hard to believe. Not terrible, but I didn‘t love it.
Onto the next book. Hoping to make progress in this one and Still Alice before I‘m done for the night and continue on tomorrow! Hopefully I can get a chunk of both in! #24b4monday
I love the covers of Jane Corry‘s books. This story was pretty good too. 😉 As for psychological thrillers, this one has some different characters; a woman working in a prison as an art teacher and a woman with a traumatic brain injury who lives in a care facility. I appreciate the author‘s unique approach with this story. The ending kept twisting and twisting too.
I don't think I would have finished this if I hadn't listened to to audiobook. There were many points in the story where I felt it could have ended. On a positive note the author includes a character with a traumatic brain injury that gives the reader some insight into the mind of a person who cannot communicate with the people around her. TW: self harm, rape
Lunchtime reading - no lunch date since hubby is sick at home. (Yes, we are lucky enough to work at the same place)
I think I need to take a break from super-twisty thrillers for awhile, because I feel like it‘s basically all I‘ve read so far this year, but this was fantastic. #bloodsisters #janecorry
This is so marvelously twisty so far. #bloodsisters #janecorry
75 degrees in Western PA on February 20? You bet I‘m outside getting some porch reading done before I have to go to work! #bloodsisters #janecorry
On to the next in the once-again out-of-control library pile! (Is it really my fault that all of my holds were ready at the same time?) I‘m pretty excited about this one, though, here‘s hoping it holds up to the excitement! #bloodsisters #janecorry
Excited to dive in
⭐⭐⭐This book was really good until the ending. The crazy switch back and forth plot twists were nerve-racking, and not in a good way. I just wasn't satisfied with how it ended. Too far fetched at times.
This will come out in the US on January 30th but I ordered a copy from Book Depository to read early. It's very strange but good. I'm about halfway through.
So many twists in this book! It definitely kept me reading and I wanted to find out what happened next. The plot is certainly different and I‘m looking forward to reading more from this author. Some parts were a little far fetched but overall a good read.
This came in today as an #arc at work. I‘m pretty sure it‘s an actual copy. It‘s all pretty and hardcover. It sounded good and I want to read more thrillers.
Amazing!! The sister's relationship felt real. My gut was right, and who doesn't love when that happens. I will definitely recommend this.
I can't help but thinking there is a link between Crispin and Clive. I don't want Clive to be anything like Crispin, but there is that gut feeling I keep getting every time he appears.
I love these short pages of insight. #BloodSisters #VikingBooks @VikingBooks
I met my goal of 85 books for 2017. If I finish Blood Sister's it will be more than I hoped. Next year's goal is 86 books. #BloodSisters #Goodreadsgoal #IDidIt
Time to start the next read on. #BloodSisters #giveawaywinner #ARC @VikingBooks
Just started this, already hooked! Needs a trigger warning though didn‘t realise there was some self harm in this book
Hmmm. Mixed feelings about this one. The first 1/4 and last 1/4 were slow, the middle fast, with revelations coming one after the other, past events being revealed and unfolding in not entirely surprising ways, but certainly with a very nice buildup as far as suspence goes! I don‘t know if I‘d recommend it — maybe to a lover of thrillers and horror books? But there should be a trigger warning about a bunch of things (child death, self-harm, rape)
It‘s been a while since a reached for a thriller, and I didn‘t think I‘d get into it, especially with my current book hangover! But this story reeled me in, and now, 300 pages in, I‘m having trouble putting it down!
Palate cleansing, part 2: read a completely different genre. Thriller it is! 😨😊
"Three girls set off to school one sunny morning. Within an hour, one of them is dead." #mynovbookmail
Cats and books! Great bookstore in Kona, Hawaii! Grabbed this ARC.

This is my ARC copy of Blood Sisters by Jane Corry a brilliant thriller that I highly recommend.
Chilling and impossible to put down! Twists and turns all the way to the last paragraph!
Corry also wrote My Husband's Wife
I really enjoyed reading this book. It's a story about sisters and lies and jealousy. This is the first time that I've read a book by this author. I'm going to add her other book to my list.
Book mail!
This won't be published here in the US until January 30, 2018, so i ordered it from the UK where is just came out. This is the author of My Husband's Wife which i loved. I'll hopefully get to it soon!
