I read this book for book club--it's actually the community reads pick for Lexington for June. A gripping account of one family's nightmare when the father and youngest son leave for their daily walk and only the son, a non-speaking 14-year-old diagnosed with autism and Angelman's syndrome, returns home, clearly in distress. Narrated by his older sister Mia, this book explores family, happiness, disability and the mystery of the minds of others.

The book made me very thirsty. I think I was drinking something the entire time. The story was interesting, though I didn‘t like any of the characters. I didn‘t care enough about them to be sad if they died, but I enjoyed the book. Doesn‘t seem that far-fetched.

This was an engaging vampire thriller (I would definitely label this more thriller than horror). Told through 2 perspectives and letters, this is a strange disturbing story of desperation. Definitely one to check out if you want a new type of vampire story. 4⭐️

Mehso-so

The third case for criminologist Lincoln Rhyme & partner Amelia Sachs sees them heading to North Carolina for Rhyme's upcoming pioneering surgery. Before the surgery takes place, the two are asked to consult on a case where two young women have been abducted by a 16-year-old local boy, Garrett Hanlon, known as the Insect Boy for his fascination with bugs. (continued)

OutsmartYourShelf After a manhunt when the boy is apprehended, one of the women is still missing & Garrett refuses to give up her whereabouts saying he is protecting her. Sachs believes that the locals think the worst of Garrett & that his life could be in danger so she absconds with him from the county jail. Now the student is working against the master, has she learned enough to outfox him?

OutsmartYourShelf This one is firmly in the middle of the first two books when it comes to ratings - in my opinion the first book is better but the second book is worse than this one. There were some good twists & turns in the storyline but it did seem to be drawn out a bit too long. 100 pages shorter & it would have been great. 3.25⭐

Today‘s Prompt: ABOUT ADOPTION

FORGOT TO DO THIS THIE OTHER DAY!!

A pregnant teenager, a couple who can't conceive, and a deal Gabe and Adrianne can't pass up. Or was it really such a good deal?

A NECESSARY END is a gripping psychological thriller.

There was a good deal of betrayal as well as manipulation.
