Another great read by Riley Sager! Jules is apartment sitting at the swanky Bartholomew, but something is amiss. This book takes us on a journey to figure out why people are missing after taking jobs here. Sure, I saw the twists coming, but it was well written, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It’s nice to read a thriller where the main character isn’t absolutely insufferable and helpless.
Under Her Care by Lucinda Berry
What lengths will some women go to in order to stay relevant? What about in order to seek revenge? I was hooked from the start of this addictive thriller. There were a lot more twists and turns than I expected, and I did not see all of them coming! And this is kind of a spoiler, but Genevieve was giving Dee Dee Blanchard vibes and Savannah was definitely giving Gypsy Rose vibes. Loved the ending giving some justice but still a little dark.

Just felt repetitive and I couldn’t get into it.
