When you suddenly want to read everything an author has put out
pickJennifer McMahon is one of my top authors. I'm working my way through her back list and I really enjoyed this one. I was invested right away. I did think the book dragged on for a while and I wasn't too shocked to who it was. But I still enjoyed the ride. 4/5
pickAn earlier book by one of my favorite authors. It definitely wasn‘t as good as her newer books but it was still very good!!! I had a hunch about who the killer was very early and was right. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
pickOMG. This book was quite a ride. The back and forth between the past and present made for interesting parallels. Part coming of age, part detective story, 3 young teens try to figure out who the serial killer is that‘s terrorizing their small town. The hunt continues in present day when the last victim turns up alive, and the serial killer seems to take up where they left off. Had me stumped until the very end. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
pickAnother solid read from Jennifer McMahon. Not as creepy as I'm used to but definitely twisty and intriguing!

pick25 years after her mother was taken by a serial killer nicknamed Neptune because he feeds victims a last meal of lobster, renowned architect Reggie Dufrane gets a call from her aunt that her mother has been found at a hospital and is dying of cancer. Reggie returns to her childhood home where she has to confront her past and navigate a difficult present.
pickWhat a thrill! There was a lot going on here, and it kept jumping from present to past, which I know some people don't like much. Though I felt the author did a wonderful job with the two intertwining timelines. It definitely has some wonderful plot twists! I recommend this book for anyone not squeamish/easily frightened by serial killer stories.
📚📚 Happy Reading! 📚📚
pickI was quickly pulled in and couldn‘t wait to learn Neptune‘s true identity...kept me guessing. Mothers & Daughters; the stories we tell ourselves vs. the Truth. Thank you, @Smangela for the recommendation. I‘m excited to read more of her work! 📚
Today‘s #LibraryHaul...three for the kiddos, two for me. Shout out to @Smangela for recommending the tagged read.
pickGood page turner about a serial killer and the effect on people left behind. I even enjoyed the flashbacks which I find problematic a lot of the time. I didn't even have the Good lord what are you doing thoughts when the main character was investigating!
I have only read a couple of Jennifer McMahon's book but love how gently creepy her books are. This isn't disappointing me at all so far!
I felt like I needed something "lighter" to break up NW with. So I decided on a 400+ page book about a never caught serial killer. #HowIRoll #MorbidLikeThat ?
so-soI felt like I was rereading Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn, a book I just read not that long ago.
Perfectly gorgeous fall day. On my #tbrlist "The One I Left Behind" by Jennifer McMahon. Just finished the historical gothic novel Rebecca by Daphne Du Mauer. Very much like a Pride and Prejudice with dark twists. So I am excited to read this thriller after having finished Rebecca. #novelnovember
