I recently finished Eight Perfect Murders by Peter Swanson, a new to me author. This psychological thriller tells the story of a bookseller who finds himself at the center of an FBI investigation when a killer uses his list of fiction’s most ingenious murders as a reference guide.

I just finished The Wrong Family by Tarryn Fisher and thoroughly enjoyed it! The storyline is unlike many in this genre, and it’s engaging, suspenseful and a true page-turner.

I didn’t expect him to be interested but when he asked a question about a half hour in I realized he was just as… Read More

I waffle between reading actual books and listening to audio books and looked forward to every second I got to listen to these. Both were beautifully narrated and I found myself closing my eyes in complete immersion into these stories. I… Read More
