The Night Shift by Alex Finlay
4.0
I enjoyed this book and it definitely kept me entertained. I think there were some missed opportunities to tie the timelines together more. The ending felt a bit forced.
But with that said it was still really fun and I will recommend it to friends.

This was one of my only DNF’s of 2023. Just couldn’t get into it.
Just the Nicest Couple by Mary Kubica

Wanted to like this book. Typically love this author but not this one. The characters were bland and made decisions that no logical person would make. I did finish it but won’t recommend to friends.
In a Holidaze by Christina Lauren
3.0
This book was cute but I did not think it held very true to the premise. In the book the main character makes some mistakes during their families Christmas but on the way home is in an accident and wakes up
at the beginning of the holiday. This happens a few time but after the 3rd (I think) time she just stops with quite a bit of the book left. I keep wondering would she not worry the rest of her like she would go back to the beginning of the loop. I felt like the main premise of the book was not followed through.
There were some good spicy scenes and it was cute. Will recommend to friends during the holidays.

Dark Matter by Blake Crouch

I loved this book!!!! The potential for a multi verse is something that fascinates me and this book really nailed it!!! I loved the progression of things getting worse and worse. I found myself at the end wanting to know what happened between the two love interests. 100% telling everyone I know about this one!
Wreck the Halls by Tessa Bailey

I wanted to like this book. I’ve been on the wait list at my library for months and when it finally was available I was so excited. Unfortunately, this book was a huge disappointment. As others have mentioned the main characters names are “Beat” and “Melody”. So cringy. And the dialog is so unrealistic. This man is saying things that no man or woman would ever say no matter how in love they were. Honestly I think a book about the moms would have been much better.

This book was super cute. The main characters were likable and overall the story was cute. Would recommend to a friend.
Every Last Fear by Alex Finlay
4.0
This was a great book! Could not put it down and read in less than 2 days. The story was believable and did not have the eye rolling ending that many books in the genre hold. I did figure out “who dun it” about 3/4 through but honestly didn’t spoil the book for me.
Girl, Forgotten by Karin Slaughter
5.0
This is my favorite of all her books I’ve read. Wasn’t nearly as brutal or graphic as some. The protagonist on this story is by far my favorite of hers. It was one of the few times I really didn’t know how a book was going to end and I loved that. Would love more books ft Andrea.
