Happy October friends! This is the start of my favorite time of year to curl up with a book and it also just so happens to be one of the times of year when I think the best books are being released, that might just be because I love thrillers and since Halloween is right around the corner it is also the best time of year to release them. I have four new releases for you that I've really enjoyed. One is a nice cozy read and the rest are sure to keep you up at night or at least make you a little paranoid for a bit. Enjoy!
The Wonder of Now
This is the 3rd installment of the Sanctuary Sound series which focuses on Peyton and the events following her chemotherapy. She has finished her book about her experience and battle with cancer and is now set to go on a world book tour- much to her dismay. She just wants to get back to regular life and put her cancer behind her, but that's difficult for her when she has to keep rehashing the events in the book and the emotional toll that the past several years have taken on her. It's hardly the ideal time- or setting- for her to even think about romance, but has it somehow found her when she wasn't looking? Can she accept that somebody would truly be interested in her after all that the cancer has put her through both emotionally and physically? The Wonder of Now is a rollercoaster of emotions and is a nice little quick read. It may be my favorite of the series as Peyton teaches some very important life lessons. It's never too late for forgiveness, especially forgiving yourself.
This Little Dark Place
This Little Dark Place I devoured this mystery in just two short sittings as A.S Hatch made it very hard to walk away. The ending was something I never saw coming which is refreshing after reading back to back predictable stories. The characters were wonderful and well developed with the main character, Daniel, tugging at your heartstrings a little bit. But WOW that ending!! This story is sure to throw you for a loop!
I Will Make You Pay
Wow! Do you think you have a bad judge of character? Well Alice will give you a run for your money. When she receives a threatening phone call at her newspaper office where she is a reporter her life begins to unravel. She tried to hide her past and create a new life for herself, but has it come back to haunt her? Will she have to reveal the whole truth to not only the police, but her new boyfriend or is the threat completely unrelated? This story takes you in circles as it weaves two stories to reveal the whole truth. Who has Alice hurt so badly that now they are determined to make her pay? The ending is even better than you guessed!
Lock Every Door
If something sounds too good to be true then it probably is. Even though Jules' friend said those very same words to her after she got a job offer of a lifetime, she didn't listen. Jules has been through the ringer as she lost her job and her boyfriend and is now trying to pick up the pieces. While looking for an affordable housing option she comes across an ad as an apartment sitter. It turns out to be more than that as this opportunity is at a high profile building full of rich and famous tenants and pays an insane amount of money. All she has to do is take care of the apartment and follow their very strict rules. No nights away from the apartment, no guests, no disturbing the other guests- what could go wrong? A friendship with one of the other apartment sitters in the building begins to show her just how much could actually go wrong and I promise you that you will never see it coming! This story is insane, but in a good way and will keep you on the edge of your seat!
