It took me awhile to get the story down due to the novel having a complicated timeline. I’m glad I had a print copy because the audio would have been hard for me to follow. Overall, I enjoyed this brilliantly written mystery that had themes of espionage, murder, and legal aspects!

Narrator Helen Thank you to @macmillian.audio for the gifted audiobook ARC. Special thanks to Henry Holt Co. Books/NetGalley. All opinions are my own.
Narrator Helen Laser did a wonderful job of narrating The Wedding People. I listened at 1.75x. This is my fourth book by this narrator. I have enjoyed all the books she has narrated. They include If Something Happens to Me, Yellowface, and The Second Chance Year.
Bookish Thoughts: I wasn’t sure what to think of this novel that started off kind of depressing. Phoebe Stone has hit rock bottom and runs into a wedding group staying at the same hotel she is at. Thankfully, Phoebe’s story takes a positive turn when she is befriended by the future bride. This book is hilarious, thought provoking and full of witty banter. There is some explicit language that I didn’t care for but overall I enjoyed this emotional story about love, relationships and overcoming adversity.

I loved reading Bad Blood by John Carreyrou so when I saw a review that Anna Bright was loosely based on Elizabeth Holmes’ story I knew I had to read this book. I was hooked immediately! I thought the author did an outstanding job of coming up with her own idea of a product for a startup company.

She wrote a roller coaster of a love story that shattered my heart to pieces and then gave me the ending I needed! I stayed up so late finishing the book and then couldn’t sleep thinking about what I just read. This novel gave me November 9 vibes, which I enjoyed. This is my second 5 star read by Paige. I also loved Only Love Can Hurt Like This. I highly recommend if you enjoy emotional love stories.

Narrator Emily Pike Stewart did an amazing job of narrating The Nature of Disappearing. I listened at 1.75x. I paired the audiobook with an ebook copy as well.
Bookish Thoughts: Like most people I loved These Silent Woods! It was a no brainer to pick up the author’s next book. I went in not knowing too much about the plot. I thought the book was going in one direction only to be pleasantly surprised in how it turned a different way. The sense of place drew me into this book along with a strong beginning. If you enjoy hiking, wilderness and a good mystery, consider reading The Nature of Disappearing!

The Husbands was a quirky debut novel, thoughtful and an entertaining read. I appreciated the unique premise of the story about getting a new husband The Husbands was a quirky debut novel, thoughtful and an entertaining read. I appreciated the unique premise of the story about getting a new husband from the attic every time the main character felt like it. It was silly but kept my attention. This is a great book club pick that would garner interesting discussions about life, relationships and endless decision making.

I have never read anything by author Steve Cavanaugh and I was pleasantly surprised. The story is told using alternating perspectives. It started getting confusing halfway through because one character used multiple aliases but once I realized what was happening, it got better. Read this if you enjoy a fast paced thriller with twists and turns you don’t see coming!

Finlay and Vero’s crazy shenanigans continue in the fourth installment of Cosimano’s Finlay Donovan series. This story was filled with laugh out loud, along with, several shaking your head moments. I was entertained as Finlay and her partner in crime travel to Vegas for an adventure filled road trip. I had to suspend belief at times but I felt this book had a nice blend of mystery and romance to keep me invested.

Bookish thoughts: As some of you know, I have three daughters so the title, Like Mother, Like Daughter immediately captured my attention! I paired the book with audio which enhanced the story for me. I enjoyed all the multi media formatting the author included in the novel. My only complaint was the timeline which was a bit confusing for me and a mediocre conclusion. Read this if you enjoy emotional suspenseful stories, family drama, and mother/daughter relationships.
