Okay so there was a point in the middle of the book I questioned what was the point. I get why. There needed to be connection. Loved it wasn‘t a romance.

Hemlock | Kiersten Modglin

Of course it was who it was. I should have put it together sooner. I did want more of the psychological earlier and I wanted the real estate agent to pop in at least once. I mean it was putz face‘s brother. I really liked the love triangle and was always for her. Just wished she figured out everything sooner. I do feel like her “real” parents line wasn‘t there cause that storyline felt ALMOST unnecessary.

I find Kelly relatively interesting. Not a bad book but I think I‘d rather just have a conversation with her.

I love TR but he would have annoyed the crap out of me. Loved learning about the women in his life

Perfectly adequate with halfway decent twists. I think I‘m in a rut.

1. Opaline. What a name. I like it. 2. She was my favorite character.

As someone who worked in this town for 3 1/2 summers in college, I forgot about the murder trial. The Marquis de Morés was an interesting character. Look up how he died.

I feel like this took me forever to get through. It definitely had some good points for me to look at in myself. There were also things I had a hard time relating to and applying to my life. 🤷🏼‍♀️

With a Vengeance | Riley Sager
post image
Pickpick

So reminiscent of Agatha Christie with a flair of Sager in it and wish there was Clue in it more. I appreciate the twists in it and I still love Riley Sager even though this and the last release weren‘t his best. I like he‘s half way decent at writing women protagonists. I have Seamus unofficially diagnosed. But very undecided that I like any of the men in this book. Easy read.

What an amazing book. I think I loved that there just wasn‘t one aspect to Joe‘s life we were privy to and that every situation was fleshed out. Emotions were dealt with so well in this book.

Refreshing change from what I have been reading. Wasn‘t a fan of the narrator of the audiobook. Liked how the book played out. Really just a palate cleanser.

I liked how different the sisters were but how dependent they were on each other. Interesting life twists.

Mid range historical fiction. Definitely not bad but nothing to really grab me. It really is an interesting situation to think about. I wouldn‘t know what I‘d do.

So good. I love Haymitch. All the characters were so fleshed out and I love the connections between this book and the original trilogy. You find out so much. And it‘s so tragic. Love this book.

The Lost Letters of Aisling | Cynthia Ellingsen

I liked 98% of this book. Didn‘t like Rainey‘s “romance” cause it felt Hallmark-y and unnecessary and her open ended ending. I hated how there was so much left open in the modern timeline. I loved how the dual timelines were handled, the friendships and love. There are parts of this where I wish some things were fleshed out at the end. But generally liked it

I have a hard time, in general, with world building. This was no different. But I was intrigued if they would see each other again and how everything was tied together. I didn‘t like the “cliffhanger”.

I‘m not entirely sure how I can have closure without being content. But that‘s this book. I know everything I want to, ends are tied but why do I want more? More ends tied, more knowledge. But I like how this book played out and the characters. And I do like they got closure. I still want more.

I appreciate a book that doesn‘t waste time at the beginning. Got straight to the point, the pace was great, clues were introduced at the right time. And the investigator at the end? Oy. Did I see the twists at the end? No and I love that for me. This is practically a perfect book.

Definitely not my favorite but definitely liked the ending and knowing more about Sally. She‘s my favorite mom. Don‘t tell the other moms.

Let‘s talk about the ending. Saved and ruined the book for me. I want like the definitive happy ending where everyone sees Joe but also….want the fire to be true. I appreciate, though not right away, meeting everyone and feel like momentum did pick up. Hesitant to give it a pick but….the ending.

She‘s not a bad story teller. I understand the feelings in the book. I was uncomfortable during some parts which probably was meant to. The book just didn‘t grab me and I was a little disappointed.

This book is so long. And antidotal. I didn‘t really start to REALLY enjoy this book until the last like third of it. I don‘t have a reason why.

Found Percy Jackson as an adult. Now it‘s a comfort series that I will always return to. I loved coming back to this series and think this is a great addition. Love catching up with the trio.

Rollins always provides a good read. There‘s lots of research and details, recurring characters. I love recurring characters and learning about them.

You can judge a book by the amount of tabs you use. I think there were times her word choices were a show of brains BUT as someone who used to live in not their birth country; I get her. I get the need to go. I get her faith journey and feelings. Angry or otherwise. I get the lessons. Though some of word choices I didn‘t like, well written. You see her as a person.

How do you not love how this book is written? So personable. Also I love that it is a person involved but not a camp survivor. Ugh. Giving this book to everyone.

I had a long drive to vote so this is where I listened to the bulk of the end. There was one spot I was like, mmmmmm, 3/4 of the way through. But so solid otherwise. It had me from the beginning. Liked the characters or not, depending on who. Do you have whiskey?

I knew the subject matter before going in. I was not emotionally prepared. It was good. Just took me a while to process. I want her to go back to that town.

The ending was cute. There was minimal character development but still human like. I had no use for any man in this book cause please just be attracted to the whiny American that has “mediocre talent”. I don‘t get her allure. The retelling aspects were good. Easy reading.

I liked this more and more as I went through it. It‘s a book that makes you think about love, choices, and family. I find myself thinking about how I would handle the whole situation. I‘m not sure I‘d have the grace for it.

I get the mediocre reviews I‘ve heard of this book. And it‘s not my favorite Sager book but I love Riley Sager. I really appreciate the ending and the thing with Claudia.

I really enjoyed getting to know the sisters. I want an actual biography of the Todd family cause that would be fascinating. Sometimes I didn‘t like the shifting POV with the sisters but I‘m an eternal crank so I‘m never fully satisfied.

Is this the most complex book ever? No. But I enjoyed the characters, the development that there was and the story line in general. Plus I went on a deep google dive on the real life ship. That‘s a plus.

Not a “love” book but a like one. I‘m so impartial to everyone in the story and feel not invested in everyone but kind of Melody. But I‘m happy with the ending.
