Blogmas Day 6: Signed Books I’ve Gotten Rid Of

Hey guys! So this post is something I’ve been thinking about doing for a while now. A part of me was wondering if I should get rid of these books. Another part of me didn’t want to. I know however that these are books I won’t pick up again It’s a shame because a good portion of these are personalized. I did end up meeting some of these authors. Some of these are books that I got when I was an OwlCrate subscriber. Other books I just ended up picking up the signed edition. I am sad to see some of these go but I do hope they go to a better place where they are enjoyed. So let’s dive in!

October Wrap-up

Hey guys! I am so excited to share with you my October Wrap-up! I actually read books a good amount of books this month. I have been in a bit of a slump/not wanting to read mood so I was happy to breeze through so many books. I feel like overall I enjoyed the books I read this month. I think only one really stood out to me. That was a book I wasn’t really planning on picking up either. So let’s dive in and see what I read last month!

Spookathon Wrap-up

Hey guys! So I am excited to announce that I ended up participating in Spookathon last week. I honestly didn’t think I was going to. I have been in a bit of a slump as of late. I haven’t been reading as much. I ended up finishing a book on the second day and then picked up another one so I thought I would try to pick books that fit the prompts. So I’m really happy that I ended up making it work. Spookathon is one of my favorite readathons so I was happy this ended up working out. So let’s dive in to see what I read.

Book Review: The Favorite Daughter By Kaira Rouda

The Favorite Daughter By Kaira Rouda

Genre: Mystery, Fiction, Thriller, Suspense
Pages: 368 pages
Published: May 21st 2019
Publisher: Graydon House
My Rating: 2.5 out of 5 Stars

Synopsis: From the author of the page-turning domestic suspense Best Day Ever, comes another gripping novel of psychological suspense set in an upscale Southern California community, for fans of B.A. Paris and Shari Lapena.

The perfect home. The perfect family. The perfect lie.

Jane Harris lives in a sparkling home in an oceanfront gated community in Orange County. It’s a place that seems too beautiful to be touched by sadness. But exactly one year ago, Jane’s oldest daughter, Mary, died in a tragic accident and Jane has been grief-stricken ever since. Lost in a haze of anti-depressants, she’s barely even left the house. Now that’s all about to change.

It’s time for Jane to reclaim her life and her family. Jane’s husband, David, has planned a memorial service for Mary and three days later, their youngest daughter, Betsy, graduates high school. Yet as Jane reemerges into the world, it’s clear her family has changed without her. Her husband has been working long days—and nights—at the office. Her daughter seems distant, even secretive. And her beloved Mary was always such a good girl—dutiful and loving. But does someone know more about Mary, and about her last day, than they’ve revealed?

The bonds between mothers and daughters, and husbands and wives should never be broken. But you never know how far someone will go to keep a family together…

My September TBR

Hey guys! So I know I’m a bit late with this TBR. I have to say I have been slacking on reading the last two months. I don’t know what it is but I haven’t been in much of a mood to read as of late. Even though that is the case I still have a couple of books I would like to get to this month. I hope that I can. I am am excited to say I reached my goal of reading 50 books. I am so happy that I set my goal to 50 this year. It’s been extremely busy and very draining. I haven’t been wanting to read as much so I’m glad I didn’t push myself to try to read 100 this year. I mean maybe I will but right now I’m not putting the pressure on myself. So let’s dive in to want I hope to read in September.

My July TBR

Hey guys! My July TBR is coming to you a little late but better late than never. I’ve been really indecisive about what I’ve been wanting to pick up lately. A part of me wants to read thrillers/mysteries but then the other part of me wants to switch it up. I also torn between backlisted books and new releases. So as you can see I’m a bit all over the place. So this is just books I’ve been really eying lately and have been wanting to pick up. I already read one and am currently reading another so not off to a bad start. Anyway let’s dive in!
