Good Girl, Bad Girl

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 A pitch-perfect UK-based thriller with a pair of fabulous main characters, and a kickoff of a whole new series to boot. Written in 2019, this author and his work had previously somehow passed this reader by β€” a misstep that will now be quickly corrected. Dr Cyrus Haven is…

All the Colors of the Dark

πŸŒŸπŸŒŸπŸŒŸπŸ’« A book that has been incredibly well-reviewed, and for this reader, unfortunately, fell more than a little flat.

Such a Good Mom

πŸŒŸπŸŒŸπŸŒŸπŸ’« Both an examination of the intensity of the trials of new motherhood, and a Martha-Vineyards-based mystery, this book only partially scores on both fronts. Brynn Nelson, our third person POV (and somewhat unreliable) narrator, is in her early thirties, and has not quite felt like herself since the birth…
