One of Us is Next
by Karen McMannus
View in Library Catalog
book cover


One of Us is Next is the sequel to the booktok-famous One of Us is Lying, alive and returned with a similar but different plot twisted off by the start of the trilogy. The town of Bayview in this novel is once again brimming with mischief right as the one from year's simmered down. This time, it starts with a simple well-known game of Truth and Dare, where students at Bayview are confined to two options, take the Dare or have a juicy Truth of theirs be made public to everyone they know. Once you start this next one by McMannus, you'll know why you always take the Dare.

Abducted

As a simple summary of the Case of the kidnapped toddler, Charles Lindbergh Jr., I feel the images and brief text were enough to satisfy my curiosity, piqued because I now live near Hopewell, NJ where the "Lindbergh baby" was kidnapped and later found dead. Recently, someone in my world mentioned this murder while speaking about the historical sites and structures located in Hopewell, NJ, and I remember my grandmother speaking compassionately about the toddler who was 20 months old on March 1st, 1932, when kidnapped (my grandmom was almost 22 years old and newly married, possibly considering beginning a family).

Book was great. I was already into crime scene books and this book is a great example of one. I can't wait to read the rest of the series. Jonathan Keller is now one of my favorite authors now and I definitely will read more of books besides just the Clay Edison series.

The Museum Of Failures

This is my second novel by this author, and I liked both, although I prefer Honor (the first book of hers I read.) I thought this one was a little bit too long, and better pacing and a more likeable title character would have bumped up my rating. Things tied up a little too neatly for me in this story.

a great story, suspenseful thriller. I was hooked from the beginning. This book is full of twist and turns, will keep you guessing too the very end.

The Death Archives
by Jorn "Necrobutcher" Stubberud
View in Library Catalog
book cover


Four stars purely due to personal enjoyment. Quite light on heavy duty information; more-so a ‘behind the scenes’ book with anecdotes, insight, and lots of photography relating to Mayhem’s early days. (For me, the photography was the best part. Good quality, good paper, full one- or two-page spreads.) Stubberud has a habit of lying or embellishing, though, so I wouldn’t give a full four stars especially when it comes to the potential ‘padding’ added in when discussing his apparent reconciliation with Aarseth… Overall, a ‘coffee table’ book for people already familiar with Mayhem.

From the Notebooks of a Middle School Princess

The Princess diaries books are my favorite! I love how relatable they are. Meg Cabot will always be my favorite author. Reading these books just feels like your texting a friend! The main character Olivia Grace Clarisse Mignonette Harrison is in the 6th grade when she finds out her dad is a prince which makes her a princess.

Hot Mess

This book was really good and funny. I thought it was funny when the family went on vacation together-even all the cousins. It was funny to see the family rivalries and all the adventures they got up to. I liked the part where everyone went somewhere on their own and Greg became an influencer. The best part was the plat twist(s) at the end.

Two Perfect Lies

I really loved this book. I never heard of this author or this book before I went to Barnes & Noble and found it on a Buy One Get One 50% off table. I read the back and it interested me, so I decided to buy it. I started this book at the beginning of my school day, and had 60 pages left after school, and I was so invested that I finished it at home. I would recommend this book to anyone. I felt as if I was Clara and the thought stressed me out so much, due to the conflict she is in.
