Shea Ernshaw’s A Wilderness of Stars is a decent dystopian western story

A huge thanks to Simon & Schuster and Netgalley for the e-arc.

I’ll start by saying this was definitely an enjoyable book, I just didn’t necessarily love it. It was nice as a different little read but didn’t quite end up being what I expected in the end in a way that wasn’t for the better as far as my tastes run. Not to discourage anyone from reading, it just wasn’t quite to my taste, but it was still well written and had a very interesting concept.

Lisa Unger’s Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six is a wonderful locked room mystery

A big thanks for the ARC and the chance to read this book ahead of its release.

Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six was very atmospheric right from the start. The setting itself was such an essential part to the story because it immediately set the tone of the novel and somehow managed to be so creepy even though it was supposedly such a beautiful location.

Mad Honey is a mixed bag but it’s still an enjoyable read

This is the first Jodi Picoult book I’ve read in many years. When I was in my late teens, early twenties I was obsessed with her books, devouring them one after the other and buying her entire backlist. This was a bit of a trip down memory lane for me as a result, one I looked forward to to see if her books still held the same magic for me. Jennifer Finney Boylan, the co-author for this book was a brand new one for me, and I was interested to see how the two worked together.
