Shaw Connolly Lives To Tell by Gillian French

 

I loved this suspenseful and fast paced read! Full of fascinatingly complex characters who leapt off the page. I felt a lot of sympathy for the Connolly family...especially Shaw. I loved each time a piece of the puzzle was snapped into place! There were plenty of twists which kept me guessing. Very well done.

Homecoming: Staycation #3 by RJ Clark

 

 Reading this book was like being in a runaway mine car in a cavern full of twists, turns, and darkness. You don't know where you'll end up but hope you'll remain unscathed. There weren't any dull moments in this story. I loved the many different settings. The ending was outstanding! I can't say enough good things about it.

The Bachelorette Party by Camilla Sten

 

 I loved this intricately plotted and highly suspenseful read. The isolated setting heavily contributed to a sense of foreboding throughout the entire story. I loved that there were so many unexpected twists both in the past and the present because it made the story even more exciting.

Soul Machine by Jordana Globerman

 book cover for Soul Machine

 I enjoyed this graphic novel but I sometimes felt bogged down by the exploration of so many deep topics such as the nature of human connection, what constitutes a soul, and the search for identity. I wanted to enjoy the story at face value. I loved the artwork, the sisterly bond between Lacey and Chloe, and the twists.
