Too Good To Be True by Carola Lovering

Now that I have less time to spend browsing in book stores, I’ve become completely dependent on Book of the Month and last month’s pick was not a disappointment. Lovering tells the story of Skye and Burke who have fallen head over heels for each other and gotten engaged in a matter of months. Skye, because of her severe OCD, had almost given up hope that she’d ever find a man who could look past…

Girl A by Abigail Dean

Book of the Month has brought me another fantastic story with an ending that left me reeling. It’s the story of Lex Gracie who has spent the end of her childhood and all of her adult life trying to forget the horrors she faced growing up. After escaping the terrifying house that doubled as her prison, many many hours of therapy along with tons of effort avoiding the past has finally allowed Lex…

The Last Time I Lied by Riley Sager

The number of books on my To-Be-Read shelf is steadily growing which makes choosing my next book more difficult, so I enlist the help of friends to pick for me.

I have read one other novel from Sager already, and I loved how spooky Lock Every Door was, so of course this one intrigued me. It is the story of Emma…

She Was The Quiet One by Michele Campbell

When I chose this book I didn’t even realize it was the same author as the novel I recently read and posted about– It’s Always The Husband. I was quickly sucked into the story of the Enright twins–Bel and Rose–who end up at prestigious Odell Academy after the tragic death of their mother. The twins’ lives quickly intertwine with Sarah and Heath Donovan, instructors at the academy and the new dorm…

Lock Every Door by Riley Sager

This is the second book I’ve received from BookoftheMonth.com–I selected it from their July features. I’ve been searching for a spooky read and this made a great one. Sager’s novel promises the story of  25 year old Jules Larsen as she stumbles into the job of a lifetime as an apartment sitter in one of Manhattan’s most famous and mysterious buildings. After landing in the lap of luxury, Jules…

I received this novel in my first box from BookoftheMonth.com after selecting it from their June books and I was not disappointed. It’s the story of the upstanding Sandell family thrown into chaos when 18 year old Stella Sandell is accused of murder. Her parents, Adam (a pastor) and Ulrika (a criminal defense attorney) find their personal and professional ethics tested as they struggle to protect…
