I‘m not sure what made me look up Joshilyn Jackson on Libby, but I‘m glad I did!

I read and loved Almost Sisters last year. I think I‘ve heard her narrate other audiobooks, and I think she reads well.

This is about a 2 hour short story. It starts out about being a teen mom, but it takes a darker thriller turn. I really enjoyed it! If you‘re looking for a palate cleanser between long books, this is a good one to try. 👍

squirrelbrain Sounds good - I‘ve only read Never Have I Ever, but loved it! 4y

I am buzzing right along. I have finished a handful of graphic novels, and 3 audiobooks already. So far this #bookishweekend has been a blast! This audiobook is short and sweet, so I‘m hoping to complete it while I organize some of my books. I have some fun plans for tonight, so stay tuned! 🖤

I loved this short story. It was quite different. I read it in one sitting because I just had to find out what happened. I thought it was in the fantasy genre because of some of the scenes, but it is listed on here as just fiction. None the less I enjoyed it.
