Review: Exit

Exit by Belinda Bauer My rating: 4 of 5 stars My favorite mystery novels are character-driven stories where there happens to be a mystery in the novel. This story by Belinda Bauer accomplishes the rare feat of being an interesting plot and character driven story. There's a reasonably convoluted plot that unravels in pieces but there's also deep and interesting character studies in this story. It's also really fast paced. Accomplishing all that in a single novel is quite hard. I really enjoyed this one. View all my reviews

Review: Everyone in This Room Will Someday Be Dead

Everyone in This Room Will Someday Be Dead by Emily R. Austin My rating: 3 of 5 stars 3.5 stars. This book is a lot darker and drearier than the blurb would have you believe. Dry humor isn't usually my thing which is maybe why I didn't find it hilarious at all. For most of the story, Gilda is depressed and not feeling her feelings which makes it hard for the reader to feel any feelings. Despite all that, I read this book in one sitting and enjoyed each of the characters. I think this book was actually an accurate representation of what it might feel like if the main character is depressed. Most of the books make that feel like there are big negative feelings, even though it's usually an absence of feelings. It's just that reading a book with the main character in that state is hard to enjoy. with gratitude to netgalley and Artia books for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

Review: The People We Keep

Image
The People We Keep by Allison Larkin My rating: 5 of 5 stars What an absolute joy of a book to read. This is the story of April Sawicki who finally manages to run away from her hometown where she lives practically alone in a motorhome as her dad moves in with his new wife. She gets on the road with a car, a few trash bags of belongings and a little money. Her journey is hard, long, harrowing, uplifting, and joyous in parts. Each time she meets people and gets attached, she ends up feeling like she has to move on for one reason or another. She's always on the run, always untrusting, never wanting to let her guard down. But along the way, she can't help but collect some people who love her for exactly who she is. This is a wonderful story of friendship, the families we make and the people we keep. I've enjoyed every single minute I spent with it. with gratitude to edelweiss and Gallery books for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest re...
