Rating: 5 / 5 My introduction to reading Tana French was a buddy read of THE WITCH ELM by Tana French with a Goodreads group. This was in the very early days of my bookstagram and well before starting this blog. There was much that I liked about the book, but as a whole I… Continue reading IN THE WOODS by Tana French
Rating: 3 / 5 Though I have read some Sherlock Holmes in the past, it was long ago. When I saw that #thebakerstreetbookclub group on Instagram was picking up the first in the Sherlock series, I signed up.

Rating: 4 / 5 I have had THE MEMORY POLICE by Yōko Ogawa on my TBR for what feels like a long time after seeing a few great reviews, though I believe it was only translated into English from the original Japanese last year. With the return of the ability to pick up books at… Continue reading THE MEMORY POLICE by Yōko Ogawa

HOME BEFORE DARK's Maggie Holt is the daughter… Continue reading HOME BEFORE DARK by Riley Sager

I read most of her works for a class in college, but haven't picked up any Austen since and I have quite a few friends who are ardent Jane fans! When my friends Dee and Megan… Continue reading NORTHANGER ABBEY by Jane Austen
Rating: 3.5 / 5 ROSEWATER by Tade Thompson was the July book for the Deep Dark Reads buddy read on Instagram. This is a buddy read that introduces me to new authors and books that haven't been on my radar, so I immediately took advantage of my newly semi-reopened library to get a copy! ROSEWATER… Continue reading ROSEWATER by Tade Thompson

Rating: 3.5 / 5 I always love reading about places I've never been, so finding a book partially set in Antarctica in my adult Once Upon a Book Club book box definitely fit the bill! HOW THE PENGUINS SAVED VERONICA by Hazel Prior is not a book that had previously made it onto my radar,… Continue reading HOW THE PENGUINS SAVED VERONICA by Hazel Prior
