Something in the Water by Catherine Steadman
This is the first physical book I’ve read since at least the summer. I read the most on my kindle in my bed, or listening to an audiobook in the car or going for a walk. My boss lent me a few paperback books, and I read this one in about two days. The tagline is “Have you ever wondered how long it takes to dig a grave?”, but that’s almost the least exciting part of this book. The main characters are Erin and […]

A happy and blessed Thanksgiving to all who observe! Here is my list of readings that I got to in November that didn’t merit a longer review… The Golden Cage*** Part 1: Ma’am, wyd? Part 2: Good for her! Part 3: Good for…her? Also, kinda sad. Epilogue: Good for her! This is a good, trashy beach read. I just wish there had been less on Faye’s shady past- which wasn’t filled in well-and more on the machinations to destroy her husband’s business. Also, I’m not […]

So I read through all of the “Getaway” collection the other day and thought some stories hit harder than others. Per usual, here’s my rating per story in the collection. “Uncharted Waters” by Sally Hepworth (3 stars)-Yeah this one shocked me too. Probably because I have pretty much loved most of Hepworth’s mystery novels set in Australia. This one is also set in Australia, but follows a married woman named Ella who is going on a cruise without her husband Mac. While on the cruise […]
Something in the Water by Catherine Steadman
This book was not on my to-read list, but when I saw it at the bookstore, I remembered reading a few Cannonball reviews of it. Unfortunately, I couldn’t remember if the reviews were positive or negative, so I let the familiarity get the best of me and I picked it up. It wasn’t until after I read the book that I went back and read the reviews of Something in the Water once more. At least I know I’m not crazy. This was a Reese Witherspoon Book […]
Something in the Water by Catherine Steadman
Did anybody watch Mad Dogs on Amazon Prime? Something terrible happens, and the whole cast of characters spends the rest of the show making the absolute wrongest decisions whenever they’re presented with a choice, and you spend the whole time yelling at the TV? This book felt like that. Every time Erin said “Hey, let’s do this,” I wanted to yell “NO DON’T!” It was aggravating, but in a fun ‘I couldn’t put it down because how on earth is this going to end’ way. […]
Something in the Water by Catherine Steadman
Something in the Water got a lot of attention last year; Steadman’s debut novel was nominated for two Goodreads Choice awards and was Reese Witherspoon’s June Book Club read. I borrowed this one from the library based on these facts so I didn’t know much about the novel going in which is sometimes best with thrillers. “I notice my sudden jump in logic. From making a mistake to actively committing a crime. Just like that. I wonder if that’s how it starts with a lot of […]
