P.S. I Love You by Cecelia Ahern

October 21, 2020 by randirock 5 Comments

Lock Every Door – Violet The Bingo space reasoning for this book is obvious given the color of the cover. Lock Every Door completely kept my interest throughout; however, I would put it at the bottom of the list for Riley Sager’s books. That doesn’t mean it isn’t worth checking out. I would recommend it to anyone interested in a creepy read in the same vein as Get Out. In fact, I’m interested to know which one came first. The plots are so similar that […]

CBR12 Book Bingo – Shelfie

Right Behind You by Lisa Gardner

October 10, 2020 by randirock Leave a Comment

Lisa Gardner rarely disappoints, so whenever I see one of her novels at the bookstore, I pick it up. This one had been on my shelf waiting to be read, and my only regret is that I hadn’t grabbed it sooner. What a thrill! Right Behind You is #7 in the Quincy and Rainie series, but the story stands alone. I have not read the entire series, nor have I read it in any particular order, but Gardner does a great job of developing the characters […]

CBR12 Book Bingo – Cannonballer Says

Something in the Water by Catherine Steadman

October 10, 2020 by randirock 2 Comments

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 […]

CBR12 Book Bingo – Debut

One to Watch by Kate Stayman-London

October 5, 2020 by randirock Leave a Comment

It’s like watching a juicy reality TV show, but better! One to Watch is Kate Stayman-London’s debut novel, though she is no amateur writer. According to her profile, she served as lead digital writer for Hillary Rodham Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign and has written for  notable figures ranging from President Obama and Malala Yousafzai to Anna Wintour and Cher. With a resume like that, you know her first book is going to be a good one! Bea Schumacher is a plus-size fashion influencer who has sworn off […]

CBR12 Book Bingo – Orange

The Great Alone by Kristin Hannah

October 5, 2020 by randirock Leave a Comment

The Great Alone was a book I heard so much about prior to picking it up. However, at about 50 pages in, I wondered what all the fuss was about. The slow build was a bit of a grind, but I trusted that the fabulous reviews were not wrong. Boy, am I glad I did not give up. The Great Alone quickly picked up steam, and I was entranced. When Ernt Allbright came home from the Vietnam war, he was different. With a stormy mood that flips like […]

CBR12 Book Bingo – Gateway

Home Before Dark by Riley Sager

October 5, 2020 by randirock Leave a Comment

What was it like? Living in that house. Home Before Dark is a gateway book for me for two reasons: 1. It’s my first introduction to Riley Sager, and now I am OBSESSED with his books; 2. It’s my intro into LOVING horror books. I have spent a great deal of my life afraid of the horror genre, due to a traumatic viewing of the original Carrie at an impressionable age. In my adult life, I read Carrie to try to rid myself of the deeply embedded fear […]
