Zoe Maisey is a seventeen-year-old musical prodigy with a genius IQ. Three years ago, she was involved in a tragic incident that left three classmates dead. She served her time, and now her mother, Maria, is hiding the past from her new husband and demanding Zoe do the same in order to give Zoe a new beginning. Tonight Zoe is giving a recital that Maria has been planning for months but by the end of the evening, Maria is dead.

EadieB In the aftermath, everyone tries to piece together what happened. We get multiple points of view from Zoe, Aunt Tessa and Sam, her attorney. The book has an interesting plot and well-developed characters but I found Zoe to be unlikeable. The ending was a complete surprise that I didn't see coming. I have read 5 Macmillan books and I like her writing. This was her 3rd book. I'm looking forward to reading The Nanny. 3y

What She Knew: A Novel | Gilly Macmillan

pick

Rachel Jenner is walking in a Bristol park with her eight-year-old son, Ben, when he asks if he can run ahead. It's an ordinary request on an ordinary Sunday afternoon, and Rachel has no reason to worry until Ben vanishes. The story is told in two POV, Rachel and the investigator, DI Jim Clemo. The book starts out slow but soon takes off and deals with the pain and panic of having a missing child. In the end the kidnapper was a surprise to me.

EadieB I'm looking forward to reading the next book in The DI Jim Clemo series, The Odd Child. I recommend this book to those who love thrillers. #WhatSheKnew #GillyMacMillan 4y

#BooksAcrossOceans | Day 10 | #MostAnticipated Yet-to-Release Book of 2017 | #OddChildOut by #GillyMacmillan

How well do you know the people you love? Best friends Noah and Abdi have always been inseparable. But when Noah is found floating unconscious in Bristol's Feeder Canal, Abdi can't--or won't--tell anyone what happened. Tragedy strikes and what looked like the simple case of a prank gone wrong soon ignites into a public battle. #TBR

Alytrue Wow - so pretty! 8y

Jess7 Thank you @Alytrue 🎉I recycled my amateur #BulletJournal drawing of #TBR books for the Day 20 #Shelfie of the #ReadingWomenMonth challenge. Just ignore some of the books written by male authors that are drawn on the book case 😜 (edited) 8y

BethM This is gorgeous! 8y

i.read.you.too Wow 8y

Wife So cool!🌹 8y

Jess7 @BethM thank you. I drew and colored it a few months ago when I got into the #BulletJournal craze. 😂 8y

PurpleyPumpkin That's an amazing shelf!😍 8y

Buddys_Momma Beautiful 💜💜 8y

Jess7 Thank you @i.read.you.too @Wife @PurpleyPumpkin and @Buddys_Momma 🎉 I'll take any excuse to share it again 😂😜. I do not claim to have any drawing talent, but I had fun making it. #bulletjournal You should try it - it was fun and very relaxing! 8y

christineandbooks So fun to look at! I keep thinking about trying one of these one day... Great job with it! 8y

Jess7 @christineandbooks you should. This bullet journal is the leuchturm 1917. I bought it from Amazon and I love it. I tried to use it as a planner too, but I've slacked on keeping up with that aspect of it. @britt_brooke has a #Bulletjournal for mainly books she reads every month. I think she does this sort of thing each month with the books she is currently reading. You should definitely try it! 8y

Simona 😍😍😍😍👏👏👏👏 8y

goodbyefrancie This is amazing! I have a bullet journal and it's still blank because I'm intimidated. 8y

Jess7 Thanks @Simona @ferskner and @goodbyefrancie 🎉 don't be intimidated @goodbyefrancie - just start sketching something out in pencil or with an erasable pen like - I found some good erasable colorful pens at target that I like. Google things for inspiration and just start it. It's a lot of fun! 8y

LauraBrook @goodbyefrancie I do the same thing, all the time! 😳😂 8y

afilipabatista Wow 😳😳 amazing 😍 8y

minkyb A visual pleasure! 8y

britt_brooke @Jess7 @christineandbooks Yep, I use mine specifically for my month-end reading analysis. I meant to use it for more stuff but it's kind of time consuming. I use leuchturn as well. It's great! (edited) 8y

britt_brooke PS - This looks great @jess7 ! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 8y
