To learn more about each book, just click on the book cover!Thank goodness for the readathon. Had I not found those few hours to participate, I doubt I would have finished one book this week, let alone three!
FINISHED SINCE THE LAST UPDATE:
Book Cover Image: Fever by Deon Meyer
" data-orig-size="267,400" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" aperture="aperture" />
Book Cover Image: Good Me Bad Me by Ali Land
" data-orig-size="263,400" sizes="(max-width: 197px) 100vw, 197px" aperture="aperture" />
Book Cover Image: Fireblood by Elly Blake
" data-orig-size="266,400" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" aperture="aperture" />Deon Meyer’s novel is a gorgeous story about survival and community and the ills of society. The 500+ pages flew past as I was totally immersed in the story. It is so well-written and so realistic, every time I paused in my reading I had to stop and remind myself that it wasn’t real. This is a book I want to put on everyone’s radar.
The Ali Land book was creepy and intense and wonderful for those reasons. The child of a female serial killer who turns her own mother into the authorities? Yes, please!
The second in the Frost Blood series was just as good as I hoped it would be. The only problem is now I have to wait for the third book!
DID NOT FINISH:
I love when this category is empty.
CURRENT READ:

CURRENT LISTEN:
Book Cover Image: Sleeping Beauties by Stephen King and Owen King
" data-orig-size="263,400" sizes="(max-width: 197px) 100vw, 197px" aperture="aperture" />I am thoroughly enjoying Uncle Stevie’s homage to women. It is definitely not what I expected. The horror is of the reality kind – the kind women face every day – and I have yet to decide if this makes it scarier or less scary in the long run.
NEXT UP:
Book Cover Image: Future Home of the Living God by Louise Erdrich
" data-orig-size="264,400" sizes="(max-width: 198px) 100vw, 198px" aperture="aperture" />So, what are you reading?
