When Tom Kennedy's wife dies, he believes he and his son Jake need a new start and they move to Featherbank.  Featherbank is the home of a very dark past. 20 years ago, 5 young boys were abducted and murdered by a man named Frank Carter.  He was nicknamed "The Whisper Man" because he would lure the boys out of their rooms at night by whispering at their windows.

After Tom and Jake move in, another little boy vanishes and the events are almost identical to those of Frank Carter.  It is up to detectives Amanda Beck and Pete Willis to find the boy before it's too late, even if that means they have to confront The Whisper Man himself.

They better hurry, because Jake is starting to act strangely.  He's hearing whispering at his window.....

YOU GUYS. I 👏COULD👏NOT👏PUT👏THIS👏BOOK👏DOWN👏. It was so amazing.  It was thrilling and scary, everything I hoped it would be.  This was definitely one of the books I wanted most out of this year, and I'm so glad it didn't disappoint.

The events in the book were so CREEPY.  I know of several people who wouldn't read this at night, or alone.  As for me, I took it to read in a hotel room when I was by myself in a strange city for a week.  It made me so entirely uncomfortable because I felt like someone was at my door.  I kept hearing whispers that weren't there.

I will probably read this book once a year because I loved it so much.  I'm so happy I got the BOTM edition.  If you haven't, pick it up before it sells out!  

This was easily one of my top books of the year.  My score should be a no-brainer.

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 ...

Athena's Choice by Adam Boostrom

I received my copy of Athena's Choice from the promotional team on Instagram in exchange for my honest review. The year is 2099, and men have been absent from the earth for almost 50 years after a virus accidentally wiped all of them from the earth.  There's a project attempting to bring men back and it has become quite controversial.  When the sabotaged project leads authorities to Athena, this completely normal teenager must decide if she wants to help find the culprit. This book was pretty interesting.  It read almost like a movie.  It's definitely something I would watch if there was ever an on screen translation.  The details and imagination of the author were fun to read.  Despite the fact that science fiction is not typically  my thing, I did enjoy my time spent reading it....right up until the end. Before I go any farther, I just have to say it.  The ending sucked.  I HATEDDD it.  It made me want to throw the book....

Lucy Dawson's Don't Ever Tell

Don't Ever Tell was written by Lucy Dawson and published by Bookouture, released on 06/25/19.  I was granted early access to this book in exchange for my honest review.  Because I got too click happy on NetGalley, I'm just now getting to it.  I promise-one day I'll be caught up on my reading!!! Charlotte seems to have the perfect job, family, and life.  Only she knows that her marriage is crumbling, and her husband is oblivious to the fact(because of COURSE he is).  Little does he know that she has hired someone to be her, and when he realizes just who that person is life will change as they know it. The synopsis sounds like a typical thriller, but this one was more enjoyable than most.  The writing allowed me to put some pieces of the puzzle together, just enough to keep me interested and reading.  I couldn't put this book down.  Charlotte was so easy to relate to, especially if you've ever been in an unhappy relationship.  I loved th...
