Stay Awake
by Megan Goldin Wow. Wow is the first word that comes to mind after reading this psychological thriller. This book definitely earns a 5+ stars in my book. This one is up there with The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo and Verity on the memorable factor, which is actually kind of ironic. Liv is a…

The Black Dahlia
by James Ellroy I don’t think I’ve talked about much nonfiction before, but this one is nonfiction and upon which the movie is based. For me, it was a dud. I really enjoyed the movie, and way more than I enjoyed the book. I got through it because it is an easy read, but not…

Christmas in Peachtree Bluff (Peachtree Bluff #4)
by Kristy Woodson Harvey So, I couldn’t resist and had to finish what’s left of the series. The library only had an audiobook version, and that was something new. I rarely listen to audiobooks just because I tend to comprehend visually rather than auditory. This one didn’t disappoint. It was neat to listen to different…

The Southern Side of Paradise (Peachtree Bluff #3)
by Kristy Woodson Harvey Here is the third in that series I started about 5 months ago. I originally started with this one, but realized it was part of a series and quickly got hooked. This one didn’t disappoint either! Woodson Harvey continues this series, this time in the perspective of Ansley and Emerson (the…

What Lies Beneath
by J.G. Hetherton This was an interesting read. This is the second in a series, a Laura Chambers Mystery. When I requested the book, I did not realize that it was the second in a series, and then when it was accepted for me to read, I figured, well, hopefully it can stand alone. A…

The Book of Overthinking
By Gwendoline Smith How many of you read self-help books, whether on a regular basis or at some other frequency? I don’t mind them just to sort of either check myself, enhance some of my skills or to chalenge some of the struggles I might have. This one is one of my NetGalley reads before…

Let’s talk about…Romance Novels
Who hasn’t read at least romance novels? I mean even the Hallmark-y ones all the way to the raunchy Harlequin books. I know I have. And can I be real? There’s a part of me that really enjoys them. I remember when I first read the Fifty Shades of Grey series. I had the first…

Watch Her Disappear (Detective Josie Quinn Book 14)
By Lisa Regan Here’s another book from NetGalley.com that I’ve had the pleasure to read before it publishes. I’ve never heard of this series before, but I’m intrigued. I was sucked in pretty quickly by this one. It was a great read and I would really love to go back to book one and see…
