I didn’t realize this was the horror genre, not my typical read. Thematically it addresses issues around families and secrets and betrayals, but on the surface, true to its plot, it is a horror story, and a pretty scary one. Eight-year-old Bella has a friend, but she lives inside the closet. She is not invisible but can take many shapes and forms. Bella names her “Other Mother”. She wants Bella to let her into her heart, but Bella continues to resist. “Other Mother” starts out as a good friend, and Bella has no other friends. As Bella’s mom and dad’s relationship seems to be crumbling, “Other Mother” seems to become more aggressive and stronger. What follows is this family’s journey to be free from “Other Mother”. I am not quite sure how it ended, and I have now read the ending three times. I am still thinking about it.

I have to be in the right mood for literary fiction, but the audiobook narrator hit this one out of the park. He captured both the dry humor Kenney is known for as well as Bud's emotional growth so fantastically. The book flew by for me with no boring spots, which is a high compliment for literary fiction.

Taylor Jenkins Reid has a way to write characters that can easily be your best friend. It is no different for “After I Do”. Lauren and Ryan reach a rough patch in their marriage. They decide to separate for one year with no contact. Can Lauren and Ryan find their way back to each other? Does a separation effect other family members? Can Grandma bestow her wisdom to Lauren? Read this equally funny and sad story to find out.

In 1730 England a young girl called Red travels with her father predicting fortunes. When he dies, she goes to live with a guardian named Mr. Antrobus. Red has no idea who her mother was. She knows she has died. Her father is fearful since he tells her he has enemies and was terrified of them finding him. She is anxious to discover all these mysteries, and starts doing some research. I enjoyed this book, but I found it somewhat confusing because of all the characters. However, there is a twist at the end that I never saw coming.

THE FROZEN PEOPLE, author Elly Griffiths' latest book, has many of the same features as her previous books. She has a well drawn central character, great supporting characters, experts in a variety of subjects, and the wonderful English humor, countryside, and history. Her new book has now added time travel to the mix ... How much easier crime solving would be if the police could arrive in time to see the villain running from the body with a bloody knife in his hand? ( Why they couldn't arrive before the murder and stop it is a question for another time!) This book takes the investigators back to Victorian times. Why were they looking into such an old case? You'll have to read the book to find out ... Or, better yet, start reading her series featuring forensic pathologist Ruth Galloway!!

In this memoir of a self diagnosed Psychopath, Gagne, sets out to prove that not Psychopaths are monsters and should be shunned by society

Definitely my favorite Jeneva Rose book. A captivating story with multiple plot twists that keep pulling you in and wanting more.

In my opinion this was a mediocre book about a woman having a few bad days.

Freida always delivers a plot twisting, rollar coaster ride of thriller and suspense. Her latest novel, The Tenant doesn't disappoint!

I found this book to be very honest and emotional.
