Full cast and sound effects! I listened to a little of Tegan & Sara in my younger years and they're just a little bit older than I am. So this was a really cool fictional look into how they got started, how they learned about their sexuality, etc. Read during Dewey's 24-Hour Readathon....more

I have been randomly buying Lisa Scottoline books from library book sales for years and haven't read one. This was my first Scottoline bNetGalley ARC.
I have been randomly buying Lisa Scottoline books from library book sales for years and haven't read one. This was my first Scottoline book. And it was absolutely ridiculous. Are they all like this or is she trying something new? The writing itself was just not very good. Weird, short sentence structure, weird language like she was trying to be hip when she's not. ...more

Eh. Meh. I still have The Quiet Tenant on my TBR, I own it, but this did not make me want to read that anytime soon. It was convoluted in ways it didn't need to be. I would have rather focused on the cult, honestly. It was way more interesting than the present-day murder. The cult had Scientology vibes....more

The concept was really interesting and unique. A man (is he the only one ever to have this ability?) has the ability to taste a meal that a dead person and a living person had shared together and they get one last chance to get answers or say goodbye. But things are not all they seem and something could be happening on the other side. The book was not very fast-paced and was really slow in the middle but most of all I was disappointed with the ending....more

TW: death of loved ones (off the page)
This was ca-yute. Nothing special about it so just another run-of-the-mill contemporary romance. The audio was great for the MMC narrator and his Scottish brogue. *swoon* This is a closed door Christian romance and I'm totally fine with closed door or door taken off the hinges whatever I'm here for the story not the sex or no sex. I was afraid there would be more God talk actually and it was only a few times so I didn't mind it....more
I'm usually pretty good about remembering books I read, especially when it's only been a month, but I had to go back and reread the synoNetGalley ARC.
I'm usually pretty good about remembering books I read, especially when it's only been a month, but I had to go back and reread the synopsis for this one because it did not stick out in my brain at all. It was so lackluster. It was Hide by Kiersten White but with nothing supernatural. It was boring and kind of lame. I was disappointed, especially when her adult novel, The Killing Cold, that came out in February was so good!...more
Well, this was not good. Too much going on with Thea's current situation when it has nothing to do with the plot. Why waste pages on AmaNetGalley ARC.
Well, this was not good. Too much going on with Thea's current situation when it has nothing to do with the plot. Why waste pages on Amani's engagement? Dom's relationship? Even the epilogue was unnecessary. Should've just went even more all in on the cult. This was disappointing....more
