This was not at all the story I was expecting from the synopsis. I found myself wanting to skim by the end. It was all just a little underwhelming to me.

ARC Review: Like Mother, Like Daughter by Kimberly McCreight – Mystery/Thriller
I went in thinking this was going to be a typical domestic thriller, and I came out having experienced so much more. I can see this being a very popular release for the year.
ARC Review: The Main Character by Jaclyn Goldis – Mystery/Thriller
This is a very slow-build, character-driven story. There’s generational trauma, family drama, and relationship drama. The story has a heavy emotional undertone and can be quite thought-provoking at times.
ARC Review: The Gathering by C.J. Tudor – Horror
It just wasn’t good for me. I’m usually so gripped and invested in her stories, this was a definite miss for me and I hate that, but I have to be honest. Especially after absolutely loving The Drift, I’m so disappointed.
ARC Review: One Perfect Couple by Ruth Ware – Mystery/Thriller
This was a fun, fast read! The tropical setting, the reality show premise, the cast of characters, the fast-paced plot. The perfect summer, vacation, beach or pool read!
ARC Review: Daughter of Mine by Megan Miranda – Mystery/Thriller
This one has suspense and secrets galore! I loved the ominous tension, small-town atmosphere, and unreliability of all the characters. I was immersed and totally invested in the outcome.
ARC Review: Horror Movie by Paul Tremblay – Horror
Creepy, sinister, haunting, and unforgettable… brace yourself for this one! Equally difficult to put down and difficult to stomach reading.
ARC Review: Summers at the Saint by Mary Kay Andrews
Everything about this story was done well, the immersive setting, the character developments, the mystery plot, the romances, and friendships. I really enjoyed my time with the story and definitely recommend!
ARC Review: The Redemption of Morgan Bright by Chris Panatier – Horror
It’s a creepy, unsettling, terrifying, disturbing, nightmare-inducing, psychological/paranormal horror. This one will insert itself into your brain and never let you go.
ARC Review: A Game of Lies (DC Morgan #2) by Clare Mackintosh – Mystery/Thriller
Like a Survivor show gone wrong, where everyone has secrets, and we have to puzzle the pieces. You’ll be hooked on this twisty, fun, fast-paced read, with a snarky, lovable detective.
