Thank you Flatiron Books @netgalley for a copy of this book. I was expecting a thriller but this book is more a family mystery drama. The book is about 2 mystery: a case of a missing baby that happened 20 years ago, and a missing 80 year old resident of a care home. The story is told in multiple POV and timeline so you do have to pay attention since there are a lot of characters. The pacing of the book was a little slow for me. I did enjoy seeing how all the characters tied together.

Thank you @avonbooks @netgalley for a copy of this book. I loved Battle Royale and was excited to see more form this series. This one centers on Pet, a PA in the royal family and Matthias, a bodyguard for the royal family. They are forced to fake date. 

This one was a major slow burn and the story had some subplots that got me a bit disinterested and started skimming parts of the book. The story is cute and I enjoyed seeing how they turned their friendship into something more.

Thank you @stmartinspress @macmillanaudio for a copy of this book. I am so glad to have Rachel, a true crime podcaster, back with another story. This time Rachel is recruited by the FBI to help with a case of a missing influencer after she meets with a prisoner about to be released. Like Night Swim, the story is part what is happening and what Rachel shares in her podcast. I enjoyed the audio which included music intro to her podcast. The story was paced well with lots of subplots which I enjoyed.

Thank you @hachetteaudio @libro.fm @grandcentralpub for this debut novel. I was captivated by the first chapter with Rachel discovering her husband's infidelity. Matt strikes an agreement with Rachel to stay married to him as he is up for election. During this time, Rachel is not only at odds with her marriage but she questions her life as well. Rachel meets Nathan, a younger man, and forms a friendship. I am not one for spousal cheating but this one made sense. I love seeing how Nathan and Rachel supported each other and were as a couple. This one is steamy and felt like I was watching real housewives of DC with all the scandals.

Thank you @prhaudio @pameladormanbooks for a copy of this book. As the title suggest, this story is about all the secrets that everyone is keeping in this neighborhood. I enjoyed seeing how the story unfolded and how everyone was interwoven in each other's lives. Without giving anything away, I am not a fan of the twist of this story.

Thank you @prhaudio @berkleyromance for a copy of this book. 

This book, it made me want to take off for a month and travel the world. The premise of this book was so interesting with having to randomly someone from your contacts be your travel companion. I love how awkward Dylan and Jack was even before the trip. They really didn't know each other and I enjoyed seeing how they got connected again. I love all the counties they visited and felt I was there too.

Thank you @prhaudio @berkleypub for a copy of this audiobook. 

Downing is the queen at writing stories about twisted relationships. The love story between Wes and Ivy is toxicity at it's finest. We see their relationship as it is today and also flashback when they met. This story didn't feel very thriller at all but it grabbed my attention from the first chapter. We add in Karen, who is a police officer that was called with a case involving Wes and Ivy and it added another layer of complexity. Vacker did an amazing job with all the voices of the characters and really brought the story to life.

Thank you to the publisher for a copy of this book. If you share your life on social media, this is a good one for you. This book is about Liv who lost her sister when she was 16 and has bee searching for her missing niece for the last 10 years. The other POV is Molly who is social media influencer who shares her life to everyone. I love seeing how social media played a big part in the story and it's creepy how easy it is to stalk someone. There's lots of twists and turns in the story and I was vested to see what happens.

This was an interesting dystopian about a future that world has been impacted by climate change. The story was a little slow paced for me. 

Thank you @netgalley for a copy of this book. This was a cute YA book with lots of teenage drama. I am for sure not the target audience and this was too young for me. Samaya was really cute and enjoyed her growth journey. I enjoyed Daniel's character and how sweet he was.
