pickI‘ve tried to savor Chamberlain‘s backlog since first discovering her books over a dozen years ago— & now I only have one left in my TBR after finishing this 1996 release. It takes a lightning strike to reunite a grandmother with the granddaughter, Rachel, who left their PA bucolic town amidst the event still traumatic for the town & Rachel. Second chance romance & plenty of family secrets abound in this well performed, but not favorite, listen.
so-soTwisty turns. I thought I knew several times whodunnit but I was wrong. It was a 3 star for me. #bookspin
Happy Earth Day 🌎
pickAn incredibly unique thriller! Set in an old island castle, it features a fascinating protagonist, Ken(etria) who has dissociative identity disorder. She arrives at this creepy castle, to work with the enigmatic Celeste; then her ex and his dad show up with other white dudes to continue a "tradition" Ken and Celeste - two Black women - did not sign up for. Interesting queer and mental health representation with great tension and plot twists!

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

pickThis was ANNOYING to begin with but I‘m so glad I stuck it out because it came back around amazingly
I am intrigued by the premise of this book (a main character with dissociative identity disorder who has to solve a murder in a castle on an isolated island in a storm??) but can anyone else who's read this confirm (or not) if there are LGBTQ characters? I saw it tagged as a queer mystery but no signs yet 50 pages in. #QueerBooks
pickSix teens head to spring break in an RV. In the middle of the night somewhere in SC, they get lost and the RV gets a flat. Then the friends realize they‘re not alone. A sniper is also there, demanding that one of them reveal a secret before sunrise. The friends have to figure out which one of them is being targeted, or they all will die. This was tense throughout and I didn‘t want to stop listening!
