“I know sometimes you think you are moving through this world alone, unseen, unnoticed. But don’t believe that for a second. I have made a study of you. I know what you are going to do before you do it. I know where you’ve been and I know where you’r...
Chilling. Page turner. Mind blowing. Satire at its best!

Gone Girl
"Maybe the end was written right from the beginning."
One of my all-time faves! Thought provoking. Confusing and disturbing in the best way. Surreal. Dark. Mysterious. Made me question and rethink about a lot of things.

I'm Thinking of Ending Things by Iain Reid
“A writer should never have the audacity to write about themselves unless they’re willing to separate every layer of protection between the author’s soul and their book.”
Some things about this book I can actually relate to as a writer.
The plot twist is twisting! Make you question your moral.

Verity by Colleen Hoover
“I’ve had many enemies over the years. If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s never engage in a fight you’re sure to lose. On the other hand, never let anyone who has insulted you get away with it. Bide your time and strike back when you’re in a pos...

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo Series #1)|Paperback
“I have a meanness inside me, real as an organ. Slit me at my belly and it might slide out, meaty and dark, drop on the floor so you could stomp on it.”
Gillian Flynn's writing delivers and never disappoints. It killed my reading slump. I devoured every page!

“But that’s not what you’re most curious about, is it? You want to know if I’m as evil as everyone says I am. The answer is no. And yes.”
Creepy. Loved the gothic setting! I devoured half the book in one sitting.

Angels and Demons|Paperback
“The people you love weren’t algebra: to be calculated, subtracted, or held at arm’s length across a decimal point.”
This book felt like a haunting reminder that truth, no matter how deep you try to burry, will always find its way back to the surface—in the pursuit of justice that needs to be served.

A Good Girl's Guide to Murder (A Good Girl's Guide to Murder #1)|Paperback
“I have seen many cases like N. during the five years I've been in practice. I sometimes picture these unfortunates as men and women being pecked to death by predatory birds.”
‘N’ had me in chills and can't stop reading past my bedtime. It haunted me with closed eyes and even in my dreams.

The Lovely Bones|Paperback
"Some things you never forgot. She had come to believe that the very things the practical world dismissed as ephemera—things like songs and moonlight and kisses—were sometimes the things that lasted the longest."
This book taught me a lot about relationships and deep connections. Some things I can actually relate to as a writer. Classic chilling storytelling by Stephen King. Definitely a must read!

Lisey's Story by Stephen King
“Routine gave you structure. Structure gave you perspective. And perspective gave you a horizon.”

Dead Simple|Paperback
“Your worst sin is that you have destroyed and betrayed yourself for nothing.”
This one lean more on horror and philosophy but dang, was I thrilled. Definitely a must read for someone who contemplates about a lot of things—mostly about someone's humanity.

“I just think some women aren't made to be mothers. And some women aren't made to be daughters.”
Gillian Flynn never disappoints! This book was creepy in the best way possible. Had me reflecting on my past actions and how it affected my present and future. I loved the writing style!

Sharp Objects: A Novel|Paperback
“It’s possible to miss what you’ve never had, to mourn for it.”
Easy to read. Rachel's POV was one of the best unreliable narrators I've read. Some parts speak truth that I found uncomfortable. I liked how most of the characters made me feel some things.

Wired Differently: A Psychological Profile
"The human being is the cause of all evil in this world. We are our own virus."
Brutal. Dark. Disturbing. Some parts felt too real it made me wince. Nevertheless, the premise was interesting. I was hooked from the first page up to the last!
