Grady Hendrix is so fucking brilliant. The Final Girl Support Group blew me away with its originality, its wit, and its non-stop, heart-pounding, guess-again action.
What’s a “final girl”?
“Final Girl” is the term coined for the last...
Many thanks to those of you (there were many!) who told me to read The Bear and the Nightingale. Extra special thanks goes to those who pointed out that I should do so during wintertime. You were spot on about this.

Ugh. I can’t believe I’m writing a DNF review of a Liane Moriarty book… But, I am. I totally am. **face palm*
What's Apples Never Fall about? Apples Never Fall is the newest release from this highly talented writer, who is usually one...
Calling all fans of Broadchurch! Raven Black is the next book for you. Since most people know my affinity for stories set in remote, beautiful UK locations (looking at you, Irish Country Doctor and pretty much anything by Jenny Colgan), Ann...
