The Book Whisperers

Thank you to Netgalley and Crooked Lane Books for a copy of the eARC in exchange for a fair review. Heather has a pretty great life, she has a job she loves, and a husband that is great. Until the day she gets the best friends forever necklace in the mail. She starts freaking out that someone might know her biggest secret. That she was the reason that Becca was dead, well and the Red Lady. She embarks on a mission to find out who is tormenting her and thinks she has it figured out when she finds out that Becca's mother is out of jail. Well spoilers...so that is all I am going to say about what is going on in this book. This is supposed to be a supernatural thriller, what it felt like to me was a unreliable narrator. Sometimes that is a fantastic thing, sometimes it is a hot mess express. This was more of a hot mess express. Even though I had a vague idea of what is going on and the synopsis tells you basically the whole plot. It just fell short for me, at times I really tho...

Thank you to Netgalley and Minotaur Books for a copy of the eARC in exchange for a fair review. Natalie is a small town cop just like her father.

Thank you to Netgalley and St.Martin's Press for a copy of the eARC in exchange for fair review. Disclaimer this is the 3rd book in the Valerie Hart series, I suggest you start with book 1 before reading this review or reading this book. Spoilers will follow for those who aren't up  to date with the series. Valerie is back, this time she is called in for a home invasion gone wrong. The wife has been stabbed but is still alive however, her husband Adam is past saving. Valerie knows Adam and is immediately conflicted as too whether she should report how she knows him, and have herself removed from the case. But in true Valerie fashion she doesn't, and soon she unravels a mystery much deeper than it looks to begin with. She also has many life changes on her plate including her marriage to Nick that she is trying very hard to implode, but not implode. Typically I would say more, but spoilers I probably gave too much away but I don't think so this series is so dark...
