Hey, everyone! Today I posted a video where I talked about some books that I read in July 2018. It's been a while, but I hope that some of these books pique your interest.
THE BOOKS:
Blood Will Out by Jo Treggiari- 1.5 stars This was a YA thriller that I thought would blow me away. Sadly, it was a letdown. I was so disappointed with the overall writing, plot, and character development of this novel. Check out my review here.
A Wilderness Station: Selected Stories, 1968-1994 by Alice Munro 3.6 stars for the overall collection. I don't hate this, but I was not a fan of the overall collection. It's interesting to see Munro's progression as a writer (SPOILER: it gets better as time goes on), but I am just not a fan of her overall stories, moral conversations, or development.
The Last Time I Lied by Riley Sager 5 stars I am a huge fan of this novel. It was one of the best books I read in 2018 and this thriller just hooked me. It was exactly what I needed and the story felt so campy (Haha) and had one of the best twist endings. I can't recommend this one enough. Check out my review here!
Recommend the Most:
The Last Time I Lied is hands down the best of the three! It's a solid 5-star book for me. It has its moments of almost failure, but the ending made up for where this novel almost went (it would've still been a highly rated novel).
