Granite Harbor

4 stars (originally 3.5 stars, but I changed my mind) As I said in my initial review, the author paints out scenes like laying paint on a canvas. I made sure to update my goodreads notes as I went along for this journey to know what to say. I originally rated this book 5 stars, it then went down to 3.5 for a few reasons: - Too many characters to keep track of, I felt it could’ve been slimed down a bit or instead make note of characters. (For example, not saying to take Morgana out, but mention her as Alex’s ex-wife and note some differences and reasons they divorced.) - The interrogations felt a bit like casual conversations, not so much as a police officer hard on getting information. Even at that it felt like Alex got too much credit at times even though it felt like surrounding characters did more work. - It felt that sometimes things were drawn out a bit or just slow, I felt that way with part 1. Other than those reasons I really did enjoy the book. The killer’s POV and life story really grabbed me. Honestly I felt that the story could’ve been from their POV the entire time or took up most of the book. At times I felt that there were things added for shock value, but the end (specifically part 4) tied it together for me and really made me like how this killer was written. This book as a whole is definitely differe from other thrillers. The characters are interesting and the motives are intriguing. I do plan on reading “The Rocks” by this author soon. Thank you to Celadon Books and Bookish First for an ARC of this book!

Tegan and Sara: Junior High SIGNED

As an identical twin, I LOVED this book. I enjoyed how their conversations where actually accurate like normal siblings and they weren't arguing about who was older. Also, I loved how they fought over the guitar in the book because my sister and I share a piano and we fight over it ALL the time. Overall, this book was a quick yet fun read.

I liked the time jumping, it was done pretty well! I'm not normally into that happening every other chapter, but it worked for this book. I feel like it was a predictable plot line but very enjoyable!

The Rules Of Attraction

5 stars. Everyone in this book is an asshole and a piece of shit and I love it. It’s literally like “The Catcher in the Rye” but in college at Camden filled with sex, drugs, good music, drama, abortions and constant stream of thoughts. All the characters care about themselves, even when they try to be considerate of others, and do things for their benefit only. Lauren still misses Victor, not knowing what he does behind her back in Europe, promising to never sleep with anyone but him, while sleeping with anyone but him. Paul and his many MANY bisexual crises between Sean, Lauren, Mitchel, Richard and a bunch of other characters. And Sean pretending to be a poor welfare kid, (even though he’s rich as hell, I mean his brother is literally Patrick Bateman) just to try to get free coke or weed or shrooms, while picking up random girls (and some dudes) and breaking everyone’s hearts. Bret Easton Ellis, you are now apart of my favourite authors list.

Older series from an author I read. Can't believe I missed this one. Lots of exposition and characters. I am assuming each of the characters introduced here will have their own book.

Karen M McManus never fails to amaze with her books. One of us is next is the second book after One of us is lying. Her writing truly captured how I think everyone felt during those moments of tension and mystery while solving the murder. I loved this book
