A Good Girl's Guide to Murder
Natasha Preston is an esteemed writer of psychological thrillers and mysteries. This book is one of my favorites; I find myself coming back to it every few years for a re-read. The description of the sinister plot in this book is so fun to read and h...

The Cellar #1 - Natasha Preston

The Secret History by Donna Tartt
Everybody’s heard of the show and maybe a lot of y’all have already read the book. I may be late to the party but I’ll preach to the choir either way. The story is very sad, some moments more than others. Parts will have you angry and some hold a qui...
