Book Review: And Now She’s Gone by Rachel Howzell Hall

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Content Warning: Domestic abuse I discovered Rachel Howzell Hall earlier this year and I am so happy I did.  Her books never fail to entertain and always have my full attention.  I previously read They All Fall Down and expected this book to be similar.  Well, I was wrong because this book had

Book Review: The Girl in the Mirror by Rose Carlyle

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Girl in the Mirror is Rose Carlyle’s debut novel and she wrote a winner!  This book had everything, lies, cheating, family drama, and a twisty ending.  Carlyle’s writing echoes that of Michelle Campbell and the suspense reminded me of Gilly Macmillan.  I loved it and I’m sure you will too!

Book Review: Invisible Girl by Lisa Jewell

Book Review: When No One is Watching by Alyssa Cole

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ When No One is Watching is an extremely poignant and timely book that touches on the very issues confronting society today.  The fact that it is done in a thriller makes it even more interesting.  I think what made this book seem so crazy is that it is happening all over the country.
