This is a Safe Space- MC should NOT be a therapist

This is a Safe Space by Lucinda Berry

March 25, 2026 by NatteringwPride Leave a Comment

Jenna, who runs a successful private therapy practice, still struggles with trust issues of her own. She’s made a promise to stop snooping in her husband Colten’s phone, but sometimes she can’t help herself. One night, she discovers a troubling exchange between him and his cousin Bodie, who’s one of his closest friends. A dancer from a bachelor party they both recently attended is threatening Bodie, claiming they crossed a line sexually and that she’ll expose the truth to his family if she doesn’t get […]

Creepy kids! Drug addicts! Murder! Drawing!

Hidden Pictures by Jason Rekulak

March 24, 2026 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

  How do you feel about kids who see ghosts? Generally, I don’t love the creepy kid genre, but this book is more of a “haunted kid” vibe. He’s not inherently creepy, but you know he’s been through some things. Our main character is Mallory, who is a recovering drug addict. She’s about a year and a half sober and living in a halfway house / community home / something like that, and trying to get a job to keep her life together. She’s a […]

Sliiiiiice

Blade by Wendy Walker

March 21, 2026 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

I was today years old when I realized that I could put a meme of a cat ice skating on a human’s body as my featured image. I’ve been CBR’ing since like CBR 6 and I’ve always been a good girl and put the book cover out front. Not today though, because I’m a rebel! As cute as that ice skating man cat is though, Blade is about murder (dun dun dun!).  Ana was a future / almost Olympic skater at an elite training school […]

If you read this book – definitely opt for the audiobook version!

Tell Me What You Did by Carter Wilson

March 21, 2026 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

I have a microphone on my desk at home that I use for meetings when I’m working from home. When I first got it my old boss used to tease me that I looked like a radio host, and then I’d do my cheesy radio voice. This book has nothing to do with that, but I’m guessing there’s a cool microphone involved in the audiobook and the podcast it’s about. This is one of those books that you should ABSOLUTELY listen to the audiobook version […]

A Matter of “Pure Will”?

Voss by Patrick White

March 15, 2026 by LittlePlat Leave a Comment

I have an embarrassing confession to make: I have never read anything written by Patrick White. It’s odd, and somewhat disappointing really, that our only Australian-born Nobel Laureate for literature is so frequently passed over. For example, I never heard his name brought up once when I was studying English. He doesn’t seem to have much of a profile outside of Australia either. (Unlike say, Gerald Murnane, who seems to be slightly more recognized here in the US than at home.) So, I made the […]

The journey continues

The October Girl Volume Two by Matthew Dow Smith

March 13, 2026 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

The email came into the inbox. I saw that it was Maverick. I opened it, scrolled through, and there she was. The floating girl in a sea of blue. Was it? Could I hope? YES! It was book two of The October Girl by Matthew Dow Smith. Oh! Sweet heaven! My ship had come in! I could read the online copy, not having to wait until the end of May 2026 to have a physical copy in my hand. I was going to be one […]
