The Couple Next Door, I am extremely excited to read this book, it is currently waiting at the library for me to pick up tomorrow and I hope to be done with a stranger in my house by then The Widow Fiona Barton The Child Fiona Barton Blood Sisters two posts back I gave a list of my to be read books, these 4 were on it and did not disappoint, the others I gave a few pages and couldn't get into it or just ended up not enjoying the summary and didn't try it out. As you can see from my previous post, a stranger in the house was a 5 star read for me, so I went on to the Couple Next Door and once again I loved it, the Unwanted Guest by far my favorite of this authors 3 books, and I really really liked all 3 but unwanted guest just reeled me in and dealt the punches. Now, I will say, the ending was a bit of a let down just didn't have the punches the rest of the book had by still a great read. I went on to read The Haunting of Hill House after starting the netflix s

Good Morning, I was up until 230am and finished A Stranger in the House, SHIT, this book!!! A little over halfway through I thought I had it figured it out, and then I didn't. I absolutely love books that allow you to think you've figured it out and then not only show you that you're wrong but then surprise the shit out of you over and over again until the book ends. I love that an author is able to do that, The Woman in Cabin 10 is another book I've read recently that was the same way, The Girl on the Train is another, these are the books I apparently love!! I'll head to pick up the Couple Next Door shortly on my way to an escape room (ahhh yah), cannot wait to start it on another front, I HAD no idea that Scarlet Gospel was a book based off of Pinhead/Hellraiser #completeandtotalshock 

all the books

I am 14 books into my 30 book challenge for the year. Granted I did not begin until mid-July, so I figured that 30 was reasonable. I started off reading a 300 page book within 24 hours, it has spaced out a little more now, more like 48-72 hours, a week for bigger books. I did get stuck on IT and the Pet Sematary, seeing those movies beforehand slowed my reading and interest down a bit.  In the process I have come across some really great, exceptional books, that I have thoroughly enjoyed reading. In the past I have always leaned more toward Nicholas Sparks books, The Night Circus (if you have not read this book do so IMMEDIATELY!! It is truly an exceptional book that has my heart since I read it), but I have since found my love with thriller books. Started off with The Girl on the Train, Kind worth Killing, I'll list below the books I have read with the star review I gave it, and then the ones I have currently reading and in line to be read on my bookshelf The Shining Stephen
