#HerPrettyFace is a riveting tale of 2 women from #RobynHarding. Frances lacks confidence & friends, & has a troubled son. Kate is beautiful, self-assured, & befriends Frances as her son befriends Frances' boy. Both are hiding dark secrets.
One is not who she says she is.
How far can forgiveness extend, even for the sake of children? ⭐⭐⭐⭐ #NetGalley

"The moment was couched in humor, but that look, where they recognized the darkness in each other, forged a kind of bond. A new level of comfort was borne, an inherent understanding of each other. Kate and Frances didn‘t connect with the other Forrester mothers because they were a different breed. They had found each other, and it felt fated."

PS: Happy Pub Day to #HerPrettyFace by #RobynHarding!

3.5/5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟. This is a suspenseful thriller that kept my attention. Two women, each with secret pasts, quickly bond over their disdain for the snobbish school moms at their sons‘ school. One of these women is not who she seems. One has committed an unimaginable murder. The writing contained a lot parentheticals and I thought it was fairly predictable, but two of the main characters were well developed, and I enjoyed it. #jpbookreview

We watched the premiere of #SharpObjects tonight! It was so good 🤓🤗! Now back to reading Her Pretty Face!

So far I am really enjoying the storyline of #HerPrettyFace but I‘m finding the parenthetical phrases to be a bit distracting. Above is one example, but the book is peppered with them. Does anyone else find the overuse of these to be annoying or is it just me? What‘s your bookish pet peeve?

What are you reading?

Currently reading: #HerPrettyFace: Frances is a stay-at-home mom whose son, Marcus, is her full-time job. She doesn‘t fit in with the other moms and feels alone until she meets Kate. She is everything Frances is not, but surprisingly Kate doesn‘t act like the other snobby moms. The two instantly bond, but one of these women is not who she seems. One of these women is a murderer 😱 I‘m enjoying this suspenseful #thriller! Pub date: July 10th #ARC

Caught up on this week‘s #LitsyBuddyRead chapters for #Circe. 🤗 It‘s really, really good!!! I am using all of my willpower to put it aside. 🤣😍 #LITSYBUDDYREAD

Luckily— I have an #arc of #HerPrettyFace by #RobynHarding that I need to read because the pub date of 7/10 is quickly approaching. It looks really good. 💄🤓📚

I‘ve been reading #CrazyRichAsians and I‘m enjoying it so far, but I am going to read a few chapters of #Circe tonight for #LitsyBuddyRead. I‘ve heard really good things about it. Have you started it yet?

I also plan to read #BringMeBack and #HerPrettyFace this month too. #JulyTBR #ReadingResolutions
