Just got this from Netgalley. Not off to a great start. May or may not be a DNF. Anyone else read/reading it?

This book comes out in June of this year. This was a good read with lots of gothic vibes and a suspense-filled storyline as the MC, accused of murder by her husband, tries to solve the crime and prove her innocence and at the same time taking a critical look at her marriage and husband.

Can't We Be Friends by Denny S. Bryce and Eliza Knight was a great read! It's a deep dive into the unlikely friendship between two mega stars at the height of their popularity, Marilyn Monroe and Ella Fitzgerald. The research is phenomenal and the storytelling is compelling. I really enjoyed reading about Ella who I knew litte about. If you are a fan of either, you'll love this book.
