pickI finished this in mid March. This is the 3rd book in the Frankie Elkin series & while enjoyable & still a good read it seemed long to me. I enjoy Frankie as a character & her experiences but the case itself was so specific & out there that my attention waned at times. If you‘ve read the other books in the series then you should read this one too! & this one could also be read as a standalone.
pickNow living in Dublin,Maggie Darcy has just finished training as a Garda.She‘s walking a beat in the city, attuned to its relatively quiet daily rhythms.One day D‘arcy & her partner answer a call that ends up to be a murder scene of a young mother. The mother‘s toddler is missing. She‘s asked to help the investigating homicide team.What follows is a quest to find a murderer,& a kidnapper,in what turns out to be a quite devastating plot.
Friday night read. #libraryfind I have a dilemma. Libraries are like bookstores to me. I come home with way too many books to read! My dilemma is that I have so many books in my TBR & yet I keep getting more library books to read. Then I feel like I need to read them because they have a time limit. What‘s a reader to do?!!
On a light note, Taylor Swift & her newly released music was reverberating all over the HS today.💃🎼🎸🎹💔❤️
so-soI felt like I was going in circles with this book. The main character was getting on my nerves. I rated this book a 2 out of 5 stars.
4.5/5 ⭐️ As disturbing this book was, I really enjoyed it. I think why I liked it is the brutal honesty that Amanda described her captivity.
One thing I would have liked to have a bit more information on is about her life post captivity, but that was really the only downside to the book. #2024 #bookreview #nonfiction #canadian #bookclub #truestory
I've enjoyed this author's books before and this one was very good also. Not exactly edge of your seat thriller or a mystery, but more of a story of friendships. Some tense moments yes, but friendships that are strained.

The sun will be setting, its dazzling colors threading through the sky, making my cheeks warm.
Then I will wake up.
Good-bye, Ty,
