Susanne’s Review: Books like this are the reason I love to read. Character-Driven Fiction that is dark, gritty, realistic, heartbreaking, and utterly compelling, Where All the Light Tends to Go by David Joy, checked every single box. If only all other books were this good. Jacob McNeely lives a shady life. How could he not,Continue reading “Where All Light Tends to Go by David Joy @DavidJoy_Author #fiction #southernliterature #gritlit #comingofage #characterdrivenfiction #bookreviewers #bookbloggers”

Lina and Cain are barely getting by financially. They decide to use Lina’s lakeside vacation home as an Airbnb for some much-needed extra income. While Cain is all in,Continue reading “The Last Guests by J.P. Pomare @JPPomare @mulhollandbooks @NetGalley #thriller #mystery #suspense #bookbloggers #reviewers”

Susanne’s Review: 5 Resounding Stars for this beautifully written, heartfelt novel.

Count Your Lucky Stars by Alexandria Bellefleur @ambellefleur @avonbooks @NetGalley @lgbtqia+romance #loveislove #contemporaryfiction #fiction #bookreviewer #bookblogger
Susanne’s Review: Oh, Drat! How I wanted to love this and count my lucky stars, but alas, Count Your Lucky Stars by Alexandra Bellefleur was not quite for me. Stop the presses, however, as it wasn’t the plot or the characters I didn’t love, it was something else altogether.. The fact of it is, thatContinue reading “Count Your Lucky Stars by Alexandria Bellefleur @ambellefleur @avonbooks @NetGalley @lgbtqia+romance #loveislove #contemporaryfiction #fiction #bookreviewer #bookblogger”
The Therapist by B.A. Paris @StMartinsPress @NetGalley #baparis #mystery #suspense #fiction #bookbloggers
Susanne’s Review: So, there was something about The Therapist by B.A. Paris that got my back up as soon as I started reading it. Something that didn’t sit quite right with me and unfortunately, it wasn’t the suspense of it all. If I tell you, however, I’ll ruin it for those of you who haven’tContinue reading “The Therapist by B.A. Paris @StMartinsPress @NetGalley #baparis #mystery #suspense #fiction #bookbloggers”

As always Joe, a clinical psychologist is drawn into a police investigation despite promising his estranged wife he was done with that line of work. But Joe was leftContinue reading “Close Your Eyes by Michael Robotham @michaelrobotham #suspense #mystery #fiction #bookreviewers #bookbloggers”
The Book of Magic (Practical Magic, #2) by Alice Hoffman @ahoffmanwriter @simonschuster @netgalley @edelweiss_squad #fiction #literaryfiction #magicalrealism #bookreview
Susanne’s Review: Alice Hoffman, you have surpassed my wildest expectations! With The Book of Magic, the fourth book in the magic series, Ms. Hoffman has accomplished what I consider to be an impossible feat. Writing a final installment, that is, in my opinion, better than all prior books in the series. I adored The RulesContinue reading “The Book of Magic (Practical Magic, #2) by Alice Hoffman @ahoffmanwriter @simonschuster @netgalley @edelweiss_squad #fiction #literaryfiction #magicalrealism #bookreview”
