pickBook 7 read September 2024
This story surprised me. Since previous books read were so-so in terms of their mystery, I went blind and with low expectations. But I enjoyed it. I liked the way it was narrated, from multiple perspectives, going past and future inside character‘s minds, it has a pinch of paranormal element, and liked the interaction between characters: sister‘s relationship and Val and Terry⬇️
pickThis is another gorgeous special edition from Once Upon a Book Club! I‘ve been wanting to get to this one for so long and I finally finished it tonight. I loved this book. The mystery was so good and I couldn‘t stop reading. I definitely look forward to more from this author!

“When a reporter‘s sister is found dead in a swanky Baltimore hotel, the police suspect suicide. Determined to prove them wrong, she partners with a detective who knows more than he admits about her sister, the hotel, and its history of death.” ~ Once Upon a Book Club
pickI‘m not usually into suspense - even with a bit of paranormal. Beautiful cover art. Story kept me on my toes and not wanting to stop reading. Val did go a little too crazy for me, but she did have good reason. She doesn‘t believe her sister killed herself. I do wish their connection was brought up more. Terry was the one I was more invested in. Bridget‘s side story hit hard on every occasion of her perspective. #ouabc

I found it interesting, maybe a little dramatic who did it and why but it kept my attention all the time.
Like my special edition from Once Upon A Book. I need to read these books, the boxes of this subscription are big and I‘m almost out space, I said almost, so I won‘t cancel my subscription😜 3.8⭐️ 2w
