I want to read the tagged, and start The Peepshow and Please Do Not Touch This Exhibit

More than one thousand women of all races are murdered each year, in similar

I liked this book much better than In My Dreams I Hold a Knife. Even though I had a feeling about the villain, I was still kept guessing. Jane‘s decision at the very end really surprised me, but it made sense. Since I finished this early in my #audiowalk, I continued with Eloquent Rage, which I‘ve been listening to for #SheSaid.

Here‘s my March recap. It was a great reading month & I finished 23 books! (Including 5 audiobooks, 19 fiction, 4 NF, many genres, several children‘s & classics)
