This was an atmospheric and entertaining read! I don’t have much to say about it other than I enjoyed it. The narration was really good – I found the narrator to be engaging and she did a great job bringing the story to life. The air of mystery kept me invested, and there were plenty of twists along the way to keep me on my toes. I like that things were revealed slowly, giving just enough to keep you intrigued […]

Holy shit, this book was insane!! I honestly have no idea, even after finishing, what was actually true and what wasn’t. The title is apt because there were so many lies you never knew what to believe! I’ve been seeking out more mystery thrillers lately, but I don’t have much experience with psychological thrillers. I ended up loving it because it totally fucks with your head. It started off a little slow, but once crazy things start happening, it grabs […]

Won’t most of us die in fairly unclimactic ways, our passing unremarked by almost everyone, our deaths becoming plot points in the narrative around us? I don’t have a whole lot to say about this book, but between FANTASTIC narration and one of the single most mind blowing twists I’ve ever read, I really enjoyed it! It reminded me a lot of Cloud Atlas, spanning multiple stories across multiple timelines that all interconnect and come together in the end in […]

Wow, what a wild ride!! I honestly didn’t know much about this book going in. Ryan La Sala has been at YALLfest a couple of times and will be back again this year, and I’ve had at least one of his books on my TBR for a while. I don’t even remember how this one popped up on my radar, but whatever drew my attention was enough to make me go request it from Libby immediately. I actually loved going […]

This book was one of those that I enjoy while reading and then never think about it again. Mostly I just enjoyed the murder mystery aspect and the setting. The vibe of this book was by far my favorite part! I loved the bayou/backwoods southern gothic atmosphere of this book. The fiddle that brought ghosts back was awesome, too! I wish there had been a lot more of that, because those parts are where this book really shines. Sadly, the […]

This book was one of my most anticipated 2023 releases! I didn’t love it like I’d hoped I would, but I still enjoyed it for the most part. The narration was great! I think without listening I wouldn’t have enjoyed this very much tbh and may have considered DNFing. The narrator reminded me a lot of Pippa’s narrator in Good Girl’s Guide (one of my fave audiobooks!). It started off kinda slow, but there was enough intrigue and suspense to […]
