The Long Walk | Stephen King

I thought this book went on a little longer than it needed to, but I gave it a pick due to the shout out for Wilkie Collins‘ A Woman In White. #LosersClub

BarkingMadRead It is quite long considering the repetitiveness of the boys… getting their tickets….. 4h

Falling | T.J. Newman

My local bookstore asks me to contribute reviews for their newsletter and handed me this one. I wasn‘t sure what to expect when I opened the book, but from page one…wow. Just wow. This is an adrenaline-filled rollercoaster ride, filled with terror and red herrings and so many surprises. Underneath it all is a statement regarding first impressions and the way we tend to not think how our blasé look at world events impacts others. ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Librarybelle ⬆️⬆️⬆️ Very thought provoking and very timely, given today‘s political climate and unconscionable actions. But, I digress…who would have thought a thriller could conjure so much?!? This is also a book about choices. What would you choose—crashing a plane or saving your family??? There are a few graphic parts, and I had to put everything else on hold this morning just to finish. Really good. I requested her second book from the library alresdy! 8h

Lola: A Novel | Melissa Scrivner Love
post image
Pickpick

This isn‘t a genre I usually read, but I recommend it. It was very fast paced and suspenseful. The leader of a gang is Lola, but everyone thinks it‘s her boyfriend. Until she needs to prove herself to the Cartel and then Lola is thrown into a territory war. The author softens these hard characters and made them well rounded with B storylines. This is a violent book, but there are many themes in this book for a book club, so great pick for that!

I had this weird sense of deja vu multiple times while reading this, like I had read the same passages or subplots somewhere else. It made me feel like many of the ideas had been done before.

While I found this on a whole entertaining, the ending, with the constant this is whodunnit, no! this is whodunnit, etc, got a little silly and made it less serious.

The Housemaid Is Watching | Freida McFadden

This is the 3rd book in the housemaid series. I have enjoyed them all. This story takes place about 10 years after the previous book. Millie is now married to Enzo & they have 2 children. They move out to Long Island into a house where the neighbors have many secrets. The book was an easy read that kept me interested & had a twist at the end that I really didn‘t see coming.

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

everlocalwest I haven't read this one, so not sure about characters here. But Alyssa Cole is queer so maybe that's why it was on the list? I've read other books by her and some have LGBT characters but most do not. 8h
CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian @everlocalwest me too, I've enjoyed some of her other books and I thought she was queer. I guess I'll keep reading to find out! 3h

This was a great read. It definitely got my heart racing throughout. It definitely had an Orwell feel to it. It was truly worth the read. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
