Riley Sager's Lock Every Door

This book was published on 07/02/19 by Penguin Group Dutton.  This is my third Riley Sager book, but it's the first one I've read.  I actually ordered this as part of my Book of the Month box, even though I was lucky enough to get the book early from NetGalley.

Jules has lost everything.  Her job, her boyfriend, and her apartment, all in the span of a few days.  Broke and worried, she finds an ad for an apartment sitter in the paper and applies.  This turns out to be for the The Bartholomew, one of the most prolific apartment buildings in Manhattan.  She is given very simple rules-no visitors, no nights away from the apartment, and no bothering the famous residents.  She strikes up a friendship with one of the other apartment sitters named Ingrid, and discovers they have similar pasts.  When Ingrid goes missing, Jules starts to investigate her disappearance, despite many warning from people in the building.  She begins to unravel a deep and secretive history, putting herself in danger in the process.

THIS.BOOK.WAS.SO.FANTASTIC.  I couldn't put it down.  I would stay up late reading it until I could physically not keep my eyes open anymore.  Riley Sager is a genius.  I loved the ending and all of the twists and turns it took to get me there.  I'm currently trying to read down my NetGalley books and once I do, his other two books will be among the first ones I read.  Go pick up this book.  You will not be disappointed!

Is One Truly the Loneliest Number?

I was given a digital copy of One? by Jennifer L. Cahill.  She reached out to me through Twitter, and she was so sweet.  I couldn't wait to dive into her book.💙 The Plot (From Goodreads): It's London in the mid-noughties before Facebook, iPhones and ubiquitous wifi. Zara has just moved to London for her first real job and struggles to find her feet in a big city with no instruction manual. Penelope works night and day in an investment bank with little or no time for love. At twenty-eight she is positively ancient as far as her mother is concerned and the pressure is on for her to settle down as the big 3-0 is looming. Charlie spends night and day with his band who are constantly teetering on the verge of greatness. Richard has relocated to London from his castle in Scotland in search of the one, and Alyx is barely in one place long enough to hold down a relationship let alone think about the future. One? follows the highs and lows of a group of twenty-somethings living ...

Wine or Lose by Amanda Chaperon

 I was so freaking disappointed by this book. I bought the alternate covers (which are absolutely stunning) at Romance Con and I expected to read about (PER THE AUTHOR) small town charm, office rivals to lovers, and a happily ever after. Unfortunately for me, I didn’t feel like I got any of that. The first problem lies within the setup of the relationship. Amara and Cal meet in a club, fall in love after like 2 hours, and go back to his place before Amara realizes that Cal is the new CFO that her dad just hired for their family’s winery. He calls her a party princess, she storms out, and fast forward to five years later, when they’re both still holding onto that. How have you seriously not gotten over that one interaction in the span of FIVE YEARS?  Second, Cal hates women. You can’t convince me otherwise. When he was trying to prevent Amara’s father from giving her the company, he ONLY talked to her father, shook his hand, and plead his case with him. He paid no attention to ...

Twisted by Emily McIntire

Man, I’m obsessed with these books. The Never After series is probably my favorite series of all time because each story is just SO 👏 GOOD 👏 This one is an Aladdin reimagining, where the Aladdin character is a whiney little bitch, the Jafar character, Julian Faraci is a snack, and poor little Yasmin Karam has no choice but to marry him and suffer under the weight of his muscles and good looks. I devoured this one. If there was one thing I could ask for in my life, it’s that Emily McIntire write more of these stories because I’m almost at the end of the series and I’m not ready. 😭 If you’re into dark romance and alternative views to the fairytales we grew up with, run, don’t walk to these. If you don’t like them, read them anyway. She just might surprise you.
