When She Was Me by Marlee Bush

3.0

Thank you to NetGalley, Marlee Bush and Poisoned Pen Press for the free ebook in exchange for an honest review. 

This one was a little more of a slow burn than I was looking for and I still feel like I have questions I needed answered to feel satisfied with this one. I did enjoy the characters and that ending came out of nowhere and shocked me. It was great!

Thank you to NetGalley, Zoje Stage and Thomas and Mercer for the free ebook in exchange for an honest review. 

Really enjoyed the follow up from baby teeth, especially with Hanna as an adult. It was twisty and messed up in the best way possible. Very well done.

Interesting idea with lots of gore and wtf moments, but I expected a little more.

Quick and easy read with the most loveable characters in not ideal situations. I loved this so much. Maybe one of my favs from Abby yet!

Thank you to NetGalley, Robyn Harding and Grand Central Publishing for the free ebook in exchange for an honest review. 

This was another winner from Harding. I love the story because I feel like this happens more often than it should and it can ruin someone’s life. The twists were wild and unpredictable and I loved it.

Obsessed. Couldn’t stop listening to this novel and I didn’t want too. This was so swoony! Loved and recommend!

Thank you to NetGalley, Victoria Helen Stone and Lake Union Publishing for the free ebook in exchange for an honest review. 

I read the first half of this so quickly and I was so interested, but then it slogs right up to the ending. Not my favourite novel from this author.
The Last Murder at the End of the World by Stuart Turton

3.5

Thank you to NetGalley, Stuart Turton and HarperCollins Canada for the free ebook in exchange for an honest review. 

I still feel like I’m digesting this book a bit, which I tend to find with Turton’s novels. They aren’t your regular whodunit that’s for sure. The setting is amazing and I loved the premise but I did feel like it took a lot of information to get to the ending and the why of the whole thing. Overall though, I did enjoy it and I loved the ending.

Thank you to NetGalley, Marcus Kliewer and Atria books for the free ebook in exchange for an honest review. 

I have seen so so much hype over this model and honestly I should have waited until it died down to read it. I did enjoy it and it’s a quick read, but I don’t think it’s as amazing as I was hoping. It’s creepy and dark and slow burn.
