Perfect Crime by Helen Fields

The Donor by Clare Mackintosh

Fractured by Karin Slaughter

September 25, 2022 by Zirza 1 Comment

The Perfect Crime (Helen Fields) *** Stephen Berry is having a rough night. Or a rough life, really; he cannot seem to get his bipolar disorder under control and his long-suffering girlfriend has left him. Desperate for some quiet, he intents to jump off a bridge, but a suicide counsellor who happens to be nearby intervenes. Stephen is quietly grateful, but then his body is found dead a few weeks later at the bottom of a tall tower. The cause of death seems like a […]

Livia is kinda super scary

May 10, 2018 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

I think I downloaded this book a long time ago and somehow forgot about it?  I have so many Kindle books that I lose track of them regularly.  I think that’s probably a good problem to have.

Not-so Perfectly Matched

April 25, 2017 by Mim Leave a Comment

Let’s just start off by saying that Jodi Picoult isn’t my favorite author, but sometimes she makes you think, and sometimes, she can put both sides of an argument on the table in a narrative form that can be somewhat entertaining.   Picoult is sort of a guilty pleasure for me, except I rarely enjoy it, and Perfect Match was no exception.  While it is meant to be a gripping and tense narrative about the explosion of lives after the molestation of a small boy […]
