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.

The Ascent by Allison Buccola

 

 This book was very suspenseful with a lot of twists. Every time I thought I had everything figured out, I found out I was wrong. I found the main character to be very sympathetic and complex. I couldn't put this book down!

Scorned: Twisted Tales of Familiar Faces by Z.S. Diamanti

 

 I loved every minute of this creepy Hercules retelling! I find Greek mythology fascinating so I was on board right away! I loved finding out more about Hercules and found this story very entertaining.
