I don't know where to even start with this one. I had such high hopes for this story. I loved "The Wife Between Us" so I thought this book could only be better right? Wrong! I don't know if it was because it was an Audiobook and the narrators were not engaging, or if it … Continue reading An Anonymous Girl ~ Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen

Reconstructing Amelia by Kimberly McCreight
Ugh, I don't even know where to start. I feel like I keep having high expectations for these supposed "The Next Gone Girl!" story lines and end up transported into a Lifetime Movie.

The Wife Between Us by Greer Hendricks & Sarah Pekkanen
First of all...Wow! I may be jumping the gun writing this reviews on the heels of reading this book but I don't want any detail to slip from my mind. This book has depth of characters.

Book Nerd Goodies
I love getting gift cards to bookstores. The only downside is it takes me forever to figure out what to buy since I want all the books! Every year my uncle sends me a gift card to Barnes and Noble for my birthday and Christmas, and this year I bought The Great Alone by Kristin … Continue reading Book Nerd Goodies
