This means you can include books you buy in physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks!
Hello there!
Gosh, it’s been a while since I last wrote one of these, huh?
The fact is I have not added any books to my shelves in over a month.
This past week I saw a few I liked and requested them on Netgalley, though. I was granted access to two of them!
Netgalley
You think you know the truth about the people you love.
But one discovery can change everything…
Eight-year-old Billy goes missing one day, out flying his kite with his sister Rose. Two days later, he is found dead.
Sixteen years on, Rose still blames herself for Billy’s death. How could she have failed to protect her little brother?
Rose has never fully recovered from the trauma, and one of the few people she trusts is her neighbour Ronnie, who she has known all her life. But one day Ronnie falls ill, and Rose goes next door to help him… and what she finds in his attic room turns her world upside down.
Rose thought she knew the truth about what happened to Billy. She thought she knew her neighbour. Now the only thing she knows is that she is in danger…
I have read other books by this author and they are usually quite entertaining, even if I am not a fan of the endings.
This premise sounds really interesting and I am looking forward to digging into it.
‘You know that feeling? When you want something so badly, you almost feel you’d kill for it?’
Be careful what you wish for…
Kat and her husband Nick have tried everything to become parents, and are on the point of giving up. Then a chance encounter with Kat’s childhood friend Lisa gives Kat and Nick one last chance to achieve their dream.
But Kat and Lisa’s history hides dark secrets.
And there is more to Lisa than meets the eye.
As dangerous cracks start to appear in Kat’s perfect picture of happily-ever-after, she realises that she must face her fear of the past to save her family…
Also sounds very mysterious! I think this book has the potential to explore people’s strongest wishes and what they would do to achieve what they want, while exploring their ‘dark secrets’, so I had to request it.
Also, I loooved the cover.
And that’s it for this week!
Have you read this book or do you plan to?
Are you excited about reading any particular books you got this week?
