Welcome to Litsy!

This one has very mixed reviews but you know what? I really liked it. Starts as a slow burn that spends the first half setting up the three main characters‘ toxic friendship, and the second half is a murder mystery featuring all three plus some secondary characters from the first half. I had a lot of fun trying to figure it all out and I was wrong! The end completely surprised me. So, this is a pick from me!

My husband has a late meeting, my son is at the gym. I‘m trying to stay awake for just a little while longer while the pup sits here at my side.

Just started this book. I‘m hoping to finish it by the end of #FabulousFebruary readathon. @Andrew65

Enjoyed this book … it could have ended in many ways I‘m giving it a 3/5 first book of this author I‘ve read.

Kate, Aubrey, and Jenny. They first met as college roommates and soon became inseparable, even though they are as different as three women can be. Twenty years later, one of them is standing at the edge of a bridge... and someone else is urging her to jump. How did things come to this?

Of course it‘s always the husband!!! 😂

This was a Mother‘s Day gift from one of my daughters. She‘s 12. My kids chose to go to the used bookstore that I love and pick 1-2 books each for me. There‘s nothing like seeing what your kids will pick for you! And this has good reviews! Excited to start this tonight ! 🤍
Happy weekend reading, my friends !

My first book of 2021! This was a definite page turner that kept me guessing until the last page! I kept switching who I was rooting for while reading. Campbell‘s writing evokes empathy for almost every character involved, and her storyline is so well connected and thought out. 8/10

Kate is dead. Who killed her? One of her old college roommates or her husband? All had reasons to want Kate dead. Very twisty thriller where all the characters lie and keep secrets. The author casts doubt over all of them so that you keep guessing till the very end...which is when the killer is revealed.

Starting a new read and I love a funny dedication!
😂

audiobooks and manicures. 💚

This took a while to get through, but so many twists and turns I definitely loved it. Finished the second half in one night.

February reads and I don‘t think I‘ve ever been more excited about a month! (Really late to post, but it happens to also be a busy month)

😂

Happy National Coffee Day! Where I usually get coffee wast having any specials today so we tried something new! Now to get some reading done, I am enjoying this book so far. ☕️ 📖 #NationalCoffeeDay

OMG! 🤣

September TBR!

I decided not to do many TBR picks because I have so much trouble adhering to set picks. I‘m just going to go by mood but I do have three set picks that I selected from a jar. The Perfect Child is not pictured (ebook). I shared more about these three picks in my most recent BookTube video! https://youtu.be/BOw_gPYK_S4

The old adage was true in her case: Marry in haste, repent at leisure. 👏👏👏💜👿😀

Did you see the end coming? Didn‘t turn out quit how I thought!

Not very good at being witty or particularly intelligent! I read because my life makes my brain exhausted, and I need to wind down at night before I can sleep. Enjoyed this one, to the point that I'm a bit miffed it's finished!

Standing on the edge of a bridge with someone urging her to jump into the #water - how will this turn out? I can hardly wait to find out!

I know many of us sometimes buy books based on their covers. How about dedications? Have you ever bought a book based on that?

This one sounded too good to pass up. Especially for 3/$10 📚🙈📖

The story starts with someone taking a walk on a bridge. You soon learn that this person is being coaxed/forced to jump and a sense of foreboding fills you that something evil is going to happen. Then the real story begins. College roommates sharing a secret find themselves back together 22 years later, in the exact place where it all began and where history has now repeated. Friends turn enemies, love turns to hate and secrets turn to revenge

From my #tbr. The bridge on the cover is so pretty! It‘s a shame that the story begins with one of three college friends #falling off of it...

I think maybe the fact that I listened to this on audio maybe had an impact on how much I liked it. I found it to get overly complicated with the timeline going back and forth between present and past. I liked the story, but the writing not so much.

And finished! I enjoyed this book. I think it wasn‘t as good as She Was the Quiet One but it was worth reading. 🌟🌟🌟✨ 3.5/5

Breakfast and reading before my last day of the week begins! Happy Wednesday, Littens! 🤗

Finally starting the hold that came in from the library! I liked her second book so I feel pretty good about reading this one. 🤗

Another great novel from Campbell. Actually, this was her first, but I read it after her newest one.

So excited to read this!! Weekend, here I come.

Already have 2 library books on my kindle, 4 books at home, and decided to request this one. Realized it was available...and borrowed it 🤦🏻‍♀️ So many books, so little time. 🤓

I‘m excited to start book 2 for the marathon. #24im48

I loved this book!!!

I really enjoyed this book 😍 Friends since college who hold a secret about another friends death for 20 years. Then one of the 3 women is found dead ...was it suicide...her husband..one of her friends...or her friends Husband?! A page turner hard to put down

My hospital is slow so I was given a few extra days off to read. #VacationRead #MeanGirls #Bookaddict #BookNerd

This book was not what I thought it would be. In fact, I wish I hadn‘t wasted time reading it. I didn‘t care for any of the characters and it was just too much drug use.

Next up! #lazysunday #mounttbrchallenge

Thought I could listen to the audio- nope. I can‘t do mean girls and the “frenemy” thing is played out, just feeds into the BS notion that females can‘t have honest friendships. 😤

Best book I've read so far this year! Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on you! :) #thewallsareclosingin @Liberty

I loved this book! It was a great listen! I detest women like Kate Eastman & have no pity nor mercy for ppl that deliberately ruin themselves and those closest to them out of pure selfishness, greed, and lust. That being said it was a good thriller and it really did leave you guessing until the very end. I‘m eager to read whatever Michele Campbell writes next. It makes you question if the ppl around you are healthy for you.

Similar to many I have read recently, but I‘m no less engaged because of it. I‘m looking forward to seeing how it is resolved!

Definitely a good one. You get to meet the characters and grow up with them and the twist oh the twist. College fun times mixed with adult friendships, and murder mixed in ❤️

Being at the camp it‘s always best for reading a lot ❤️ #litsypartyofone #camplife #bigsdillpickleseeds

A book and a cuddly dog. #litsypartyofone

Love this dedication 😂❤️
