Current Reads
Five Strangers by E. V. Adamson
I downloaded this one on a whim from NetGalley the other day as it sounded good. It’s about a woman who witnesses a brutal attack one day and then begins to question if she really saw things happen the way she thought she had. It’s told from two perspectives and is fast-paced. I’m enjoying it and am keen to see where it’s going!
Recent Reads
Black Buck by Mateo Askaripour
I very much enjoyed this novel about a young black man who gets a great opportunity to work for a start up and life beings to get much more complicated. I hope to have my review posted of this one in the next few days but in the meantime I definitely recommend it.
The Final Chapter by Jerome Loubry
I really enjoyed this gripping thriller. Click the title if you’d like to read my mini review!
This was a dark read that kept me gripped all the way through. Click the title if you’d like to read my mini review!
Luster by Raven Leilani
I borrowed this one on audio from the library and I don’t really know how I feel about it. I didn’t enjoy it and I’m not really sure what it was trying to do.
This was a fascinating memoir of a young black man’s experiences of going to Eton and I very much enjoyed it. Click the title if you’d like to read my mini review!
What I Might Read Next
Malibu Rising by Taylor Jenkins Reid
The Murder of Graham Catton by Katie Lowe
One Last Time by Helga Flatland
I’m still reading my NetGalley books in order of publication so the first two books on my list for the coming week are the ones due to be published next so I hope to get to them this week. The third book is one I’m reading for a blog tour in June so I’d like to read it well ahead of time. I’m so looking forward to all three of these books, it feels like it could be an excellent reading week! 🙂
Glad you enjoyed One of Them. I found it fascinating. My WWW post: https://liseysreads.wordpress.com/2021/05/12/www-wednesday-15-12-may-2021/
Thank you – it was an excellent read.
I’m looking forward to reading One Last Time for the blog tour too but I have a few other books to get through first 😁
I’ve just started One Last Time and I can tell already that I’m going to love it. I hope you enjoy it when you get to it. 🙂
Loved your review for One of Them! xx
Thank you so much 🙂 xx
Malibu Rising is on my list….and I am curious about Madam. Thanks for sharing, and here’s MY WWW POST
Madam was good – a little long in places but still a good read. 🙂
I’m starting Malibu Rising TODAY!
I hope you’re enjoying it.
Just finished it… really good but… Daisy Jones is still my favorite of hers.
Looks like a good reading week coming up. I didn’t fancy Luster at all and you not liking it cements that. I was reading Mamma by Diana Tutton and Say Please and Thank you and Stand in Line by Dany Assaf mid-week and I’ve just finished Anne Tyler’s The Accidental Tourist, which was my next one in my rather scary reading schedule!
I just didn’t get what Luster was trying to do, it felt like there was too much going on.
It sounds like you have a lot on your reading plate at the moment!
