19th Century Egypt & Ancient Magic
What The River Knows was everything I wanted and more. If you’re craving the vibe from the movie The Mummy, this book is for you. The action kept me on my toes, the twists and turns of trying to figure out who to trust kept me reading. Still reeling at the ending!

Dark Fairytales & Asylum Girls
The Never King was a kinky Peter Pan and the Lost Boys retelling, except this time Peter Pan was the villain. It was the perfect palette cleanser in between several dense reads. It satiated the craving for fantasy without exhausting you. Keeping you hooked and bothered enough to read on.

Ancient Trials & Ancient Gods
Lore was my favorite read of May! It was so rich in adventure, trials/games, and myth! It was a more mature version of Percy Jackson, with a mix of elements from The Hunger Games. Alexandra Bracken did splendid enriching her storyline with traditional Greek myth while incorporating her own twist on it!

Grief & Undue Blame
The ROLLERCOASTER of emotions that As Good As Dead gave me, had me on edge the entire time. The ending had me sobbing! My heart broke for some of the characters’ ending. Definitely had to take a few days to emotionally recover, if I’m being honest as well as dramatic.

Masks & Smutty Filth
Evil Boys was absolutely filthy, and I loved it. Evil Boys was 100% smut with a sprinkle of plot. The whole mafia and killing gang plotline was interesting, but honestly, I only endured it for Kai. There were a few scenes where it was a little tough for me to right. Check TWs.

Cold Cases & Small Town Minds
A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder left me wanting more, and thankfully, there is! I enjoyed the way Jackson ended each chapter with some type of evidential entry to the case, and the way it kept me guessing. The plot moved a bit slowly at first, but it picked up quickly.

Mommy Issues & Peer Pressure
Tastes Like Candy 2: Sugarless was an amusing and intriguing read… I found the split parts incredibly interesting. I especially enjoyed the way Tholen showed Dusty’s, our MC of part 1, descent into a full-blown psychopath, as well as the way an outside influence can play a role in that fall.

Murder & PTA Moms
Big Little Lies was an entertaining enough read. It was a little too slow for me and way too much drama for my liking. Moriarty did well with the glimpse she gave into toxic and abusive marriages, how women deal with extramarital affairs, and how other parents deal with child bullies.

Murder & Dog Lovers
In Samantha Downing’s Sleeping Dogs Lie, Shelby worked as a dog walker in Northern California, and she’s just finished up her biweekly trip to the park with a husky named Pluto. When she brings him back to his house, she finds his owner dead, Todd Burke, on the bathroom floor.

Old Bones & Crumbling Secrets
Buried Deep was a whirlwind. I’m still reeling at the ending and how cavalier the main character was being. When news of her husband’s missing ex resurfaced after 25 years, Maggie was determined to find out what happened to her.
