The Other People by CJ Tudor

The Other People by C.J. Tudor was published by Random House - Ballantine on January 28, 2020. I was given a copy through NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.

Driving home from work one night, Gabe sees his daughter mouth "Daddy" in the back of a beat up car. She's never seen again. He spends the next three years going up and down that highway, in search of the daughter he lost. When the car is found at the bottom of a pond with a grown man inside, Gabe amps up his search. That search leads him to The Other People.

If you have lost a loved one, The Other People want to help. Because they know what loss is like. They know what pain is like. They know what death is like.

This was my first book by Tudor, despite owning everything else she has written. It did not disappoint. I really enjoyed this one and totally loved the ending. It would have been a 5 star read for me, but I guess this was supposed to be a paranormal thriller? That didn't really come across for me. Still, this was an excellent read.

Grab this book for the creepiness factor. Stay for the story.

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....

Heartless by Elsie Silver

Elsie Silver has once again proven why she’s an auto buy author for me after reading this book! Cade is SUCH A GRUMP and I love him so much for it. Reading book 1, Willa was easily one of my most favorite characters, and I frequently blew up my bestie’s phone with things like “Willa just said _____.” It’s no surprise to me that I also loved her in this story. I’m not huge on age gap romances for my own insane reasons, but I thought it was done well here. Overall, I loved everything about this book. I had an absolute blast while reading it, and it now sits on my shelf as one of my most treasured books.
