The Family Upstairs by Lisa Jewell
I kept stopping and starting this one and at 30 percent gave up and moved onto two other books instead. I just think that Lisa Jewell is at best miss for me at this point. I think I will just check out a sample before I just borrow or buy anymore. This is the first in a duology I believe, and I have zero intention of finishing this. The only thing I can tell you is that a woman named Libby finds out about her […]
Lost Souls Meet Under a Full Moon by Mizuki Tsujimura
Please note that I received this book via NetGalley. This did not affect my rating or review. I absolutely loved this collection of stories told under the umbrella of a mysterious person called “the Go-Between”. A person that is able to set up meetings with the living and the dead, preferable during the full moon. Each story follows four people who reach out to this person and then the last portion of this book has us finding out who the “Go-Between” is and how they […]

Cat on a Hot Tin Roof by Tennessee Williams
I have to start reading more plays again. This was crazy. I loved every second of it. Devoured every word. And yes dear readers, I have never seen the movie starring Paul Newman or Elizabeth Taylor so I came into this cold. I of course have seen gifs and memes, but never sat and read this play. Also, I had zero idea this was a play at first and written by Tennessee Williams. I am really grateful I sought out a play to read for […]
System Collapse by Martha Wells
“System Collapse” picks right up with the events from “Network Effect” and Murderbot, the ART crew, and others, working together to try to figure out how to keep the Barish-Estranza corporation from trying to “own” the planet and the colonists that have been living there. This was not a bad book by any stretch, but to me there was way too much going on that I just after a while stopped trying to track what was happening to who and why. The first portion of […]
When You Are Mine by Kennedy Ryan
“When You Are Mine” is the first book in a series I have zero intention of finishing. It starts with a wedding and the best man, Walsh, is doing a wedding toast for his best friend Cam. One problem, Walsh is in love with his best friend’s wife, Kerris. Child no. I got recommended this book again (by someone at the only romance book store in NoVa) and I swear to God those people hate me. WHY???? This book had me mad from the word […]
