I'm not crazy about this cover, but I loved Eileen Cook's first book, With Malice, and this is turning out to be a suspenseful, psychological thriller aimed at YA readers.
The mystery was pretty much solved by page 150 and it ruined the whole story for me. Not a single one of the characters were likable and that‘s usually fine but it made me not care about the book. There was some comments about mental illness that were really gross, slut shaming and victim blaming and all around it just wasn‘t good. I wanted to finish all the Halloween books I‘d bought but wish I would have skipped this one or read a review first.
1 Dracula because he‘s lived literally forever. Even if he bites me.
2 Grammatical error because I probably wouldn‘t even notice it, a tear would make me crazy
3 Visually
4 Dog ear but cry about it.
5 A crime fighting werewolf that stops a serial killer so I have both.

I‘m horrible with decision making.

I still haven't managed to start this one yet, but it's told from Paige's and Skye's perspectives

2/5 star. Potentially the worst characters ever. Full review at https://libraryofpointedulac.tumblr.com/post/166194161272/the-hanging-girl-by-ei...
Not even adding a picture. Bailing. The characters are just too stereotypical and I can't take them seriously. I so wanted to know where the story went but I can't read those characters any more. 😧
When you unintentionally match your baby to your current read 😂
10 chapters in and quite enjoying it. Finding it hard to relate to the main protagonist, but the overall story is keeping me engaged so far. #readersfirst
• And then there was one... Got just under half of The Hanging Girl left to finish and then I get get lost in my Halloween reads. ➿Have you already started? What‘s on your Halloween TBR? 〰#crimefiction #crimethriller #book #booklover #bookstagram #bookblogger #bibliophile #met_createchange
Plans to start The Hanging Girl this weekend are on track! Finished Runemarks and Blood's Game this week, and I'm now over half way through my 3 other reads so I feel safe to start this. Already read the first chapter and I'm liking it so far, although the scepticism about tarot reading from the main character irked me somewhat. What do others think? #readersfirst
I really wanted to love this book, but by the end of it, I gave it 3.5 stars. It was a fun story, but the TROPES. There was so much girl-on-girl hate and the "poor vs rich" idea was so heavy. I could've appreciated it in a "social commentary" sort of sense if Paige, the kidnapping victim, hadn't been such an atrocious "mean girl" trope. And then the ending just wrecked any hopes I had for it. ?

Another one for the #tbrbingo thanks to Readers First. Looking forward to this as an amateur card reader! Tarot book pictured goes with a deck I was gifted when I turned 16. It was published the year I was born. #readersfirst

These are the only two books I have set myself to read, as if I set any more, I know it's unlikely I will finish them. 1 fiction (arc), 1 nonfiction 😁

Copy of The Hanging Girl now on its way to me from Readers First. Fantastic! The whole psychic swing to this thriller is what hooked me, really looking forward to receiving and reviewing this!
I like this cover better than one tagged on litsy. Also, it's being given away on Goodreads currently. No I don't have a link, but I know I put in for it. #coverlove #YAedition
#CurrentlyReading this one from Eileen Cook. Her book #WithMalice was one of my favorites last year and this one is already shaping up to be fantastic. Love a complicated character! #eArc
