Legends, Lore, and More
Hey, everyone. I posted the first part of my April reviews last week. If you missed that post, you can find it here. Now for the second half. Means to Deceive ★★★★★ This was my first time reading anything by author Alex Craigie. I'm glad I did. If I had to summarize this book in... Continue Reading →
Wow! We've almost reached the month of May. I read several books during the month of April, so like last month, I'm splitting my reviews into two posts. Here's part one. Mercy Falls ★★★ Many of you know I've gotten hooked on the Cork O'Connor series. I actually finished reading Mercy Falls in March, but... Continue Reading →
Happy first day of March. I don't know about you, but I'm happy spring is just around the corner. With a new month, it's time to post reviews for the books I read in February. I'm averaging about one book a week so I'm right on track with my reading goals this year. Last week,... Continue Reading →
It's Tuesday, so that means it's time for another book review. I read this back in July and had originally scheduled this post for early next year since the book releases on January 4, 2022. However, I decided to go ahead and post my review. Blurb Helen’s idyllic life—handsome architect husband, gorgeous Victorian house, and... Continue Reading →
Several years ago, I read Vincent Bugliosi’s And The Sea Will Tell, the true story about two couples who sailed to a deserted island in the Pacific. Only one couple came back alive. I was reminded of that book when a friend recommended Reckless Girls. After reading her review, I immediately snatched up an ARC.... Continue Reading →
Hey, everyone. Time for another Tuesday book review. I keep thinking my reading time will decrease as I spend more time writing, but that hasn't happened yet. Matter of fact, I upped my Goodreads challenge from 35 books to 50 books for the year. (I really need to write but that's another story.) This week's... Continue Reading →

Blurb It only takes one lie to destroy a marriage. THE PERFECT HUSBAND… Vince Taylor has everything he could dream of. He’s the CEO of a... Continue Reading →
Hey, everyone. Time for another book review Tuesday. Today I'm sharing my reviews of three recent reads. The first by an author I've read before, the others by "new to me" authors, although one of them is quite popular. Because of the length of this post, I'm skipping the blurbs. I guess you could call... Continue Reading →
Hey, everyone. I joined Net Galley a few years ago, but until recently hadn't taken advantage of requesting many books until now. Blurb If you can’t trust your father and you can’t trust the police, who can you trust Sue Hearn is planting a herb garden on the site of her grandfather’s old greenhouse. She’s... Continue Reading →
Hey, everyone. I've been working toward wheedling down my TBR list. Okay, so that's laughable, but I've only purchased six books this month. (So far.) We won't talk about my Net Galley list. Anyhow, I've had Dark Hollows sitting on my Kindle for a year, so the time to read it was long overdue. Blurb... Continue Reading →
Hey, everyone. As I said in an earlier book review, psychological fiction is fast becoming my favorite genre.

Hey, everyone. Despite being busy with my own writing, I've made a point to read more books this year. My latest review is the second book I've read by this author, and it was a page-turner. I should note the title of this book changed from The Lake House to Her Best Friend's Lie shortly... Continue Reading →

Hey, everyone. It's no secret I love a good, page-turning mystery. I scored big time with this one. https://read.amazon.com/kp/card?asin=B0796F3MMV&preview=inline&linkCode=kpe&ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_GHSHYE6AD7V19Y8Q9QS8 A weekend retreat at a cozy mountain lodge is supposed to be the perfect getaway . . . but when the storm hits, no one is getting away Blurb It's winter in the Catskills and Mitchell's...
