Fancy Meeting You Here by Julie Tieu
Not going to write a super long review here. This was a very good romance. I honestly gave it 5 stars since it made me smile and we didn't really have to deal with the main character (Elise) being ridiculous and stirring up a fake fight in the third act. I liked Elise and I liked her romance with … [Read more]
The Bewitching by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
This is hands down my favorite book of Moreno-Garcia since Mexican Gothic. I don't know about anyone else, but I found some of her other works not hitting it for me.

What I loved is how he took characters from the first book that were … [Read more]
London Rules (Slough House #5) by Mick Herron
The Drift by CJ Tudor
The Staircase in the Woods by Chuck Wendig
November (Darker Days) by Thomas Olde Heuvelt
London Rules (Slough House #5, Mick Herron) *** I enjoy the Slough House books, but I never do know what to write about them. They’re well written and the plot is usually creative and unpredictable, but in spite of that (or perhaps because of that) it’s always the same: River fucks something up, … [Read more]
