Welcome to my stop on the blog tour for Deserve to Die by Miranda Rijks! When Emma at Dampebbles Blog Tours sent out the synopsis for this one, I was immediately drawn to it. Who can resist a good domestic thriller that includes a couple with the perfect marriage living the perfect suburban life with a "patient, systematic, methodical" femme fatale thrown into the mix? NOT this girl! What did ...

Blog Tour Review: The Heart Keeper by Alex Dahl
I'll first start by saying that I loved Alex Dahl's debut, The Boy at the Door. Therefore, it was an absolute no-brainer when I was asked to join the blog tour for her sophomore novel, The Heart Keeper. It would have been an immediate yes regardless of what she'd written. When I found out that this book was centered around a greiving mother who had chosen to donate her daughter's organs after her ...
Blog Tour and Giveaway: Layover by David Bell
Greetings, fellow readers! It's great to be back from my hiatus with a blog tour stop and giveaway for Layover by David Bell. I'm somewhat embarrassed to admit this but, for whatever reason, I hadn't read any of his previous books. On the brighter side, that only made me more excited to read this one so I could see for myself what all the fuss is about. And see, I do! We start off with our ...

Blog Tour: I’ll Be Your Blue Sky by Marisa de los Santos
Welcome to my stop on the blog tour for I'll Be Your Blue Sky by Marisa de los Santos. For whatever reason, I didn't read this book when it was first released but, after reading the reviews, I had a ton of FOMO. I was very excited to be asked to join the blog tour and finally read the book I'd been reading so much about. I was definitely not disappointed! I'll Be Your Blue Sky is one of those ...
Blog Tour: Overkill by Vanda Symon @vandasymon @orendabooks @annecater
Welcome to my stop on the blog tour for Overkill by Vanda Symon. There were many things that attracted me to this book. First off, cover love!! Next, it's location. I don't recall ever having read a book set in New Zealand. I was also excited to be starting with the first book in a new-to-me series. Oh, and the synopsis sounded great as well! Overkill begins with a prologue that was very ...
Blog Tour and Review: The Cold Cold Sea by @LindaHuber19 #LoveBooksGroupTours
Welcome to my stop on the blog tour for The Cold Cold Sea by Linda Huber. Though reliably disturbing, stories about missing children never fail to attract my attention. When I had the opportunity to join the blog tour for this one, I couldn't say anything but YES! The Cold Cold Sea is told in the third person but straightaway events and twists brought the phrase "unreliable narrator" to mind. I ...
Review: Baby Teeth by Zoje Stage and Giveaway
Little girls are made of sugar and spice and everything nice, right? Thats what Suzette thought too... If you're a fan of thrillers, you've undoubtedly seen BABY TEETH everywhere over the past couple of weeks. It certainly one of the most hyped of the summer. Ninety percent of Goodreads reviewers rate this book between three and five stars. It obviously has a lot going for it. I'm not ...
Review: The Book of Essie by Meghan MacLean Weir
If you, like me, have been seeing The Book of Essie everywhere, it's with good reason. Meghan MacLean Weir's debut novel is a fearless and timely story that's bound to elicit visceral emotional responses in the reader. One can't help but make comparisons between Essie's story and that of a certain reality television show family. Thankfully, there were enough departures to make the story feel fresh ...
Review: Every Single Secret by Emily Carpenter
Straight out of the shoot, I knew I was going to like this one. I immediately questioned the reliability of the narrator and I was intrigued by the secrets Daphne and Heath were keeping from one another. What engaged couple agrees to never bring up their past? Not just their relationship past, but ever-y-thing. Living for the present is one thing, but if your finance is telling you they don't want ...
