The Vacancy in Room 10 by Seraphina Nova Glass
4.0

Picture this: your artist husband calls you, weirdly confesses to killing someone, and then turns up dead in a river. He’s been renting a room at a sketchy AF, rundown, long-term rental motel to use as a studio space, so you move in temporarily to try to find out what happened. You mingle with the other tenants to pick up gossip — including Cass, who’s recently been kicked out of her house by her cheating long-term boyfriend and is working as the motel maintenance person (and extorting shitty dudes for money) … and then you start getting threatening letters and things get extra crazy.

I loved this — never a boring moment, with a great cast of eclectic, funny, interesting characters (omg the POOL GIRLS!), and so many twists and turns and surprises — I truly had no idea what was going to happen, which is a real feat when I’m reading a thriller!

Highly recommended for anyone looking for a fast-paced, exciting thriller with a little side of snark.
