Only She Came Back by Margot Harrison (oddly hard to get into)

Claire, Darling by Callie Kazumi (fun!)

Caller Unknown by Gillian McAllister (had potential but didn’t feel like it was in Texas. Also a lot hinged, pun intended) on a broken screen door but don’t screen doors normally have a real door behind them?)

Down Cemetery Road by Mick Herron (much better as an audiobook! I’ll be interested to see the show, the other main character of that is barely in the book)

We Won’t All Survive by Kate Alice Marshall (cute idea but underdeveloped characters)

The Last Voice You Hear by Mick Herron (solid)

I Want to Burn This Place Down: Essays by Maris Kreizman (should have been a memoir)

Semi-Well-Adjusted Despite Literally Everything by Alyson Stoner (solid until the last quarter which derailed a bit but there were a lot of solid details about pay and set conditions)

No Sense in Wishing: Essays by Lawrence Burney (yay, Baltimore)

The Surf House by Lucy Clarke (fun vacation read)

The Ascent by Allison Buccola (fun but the twist didn’t work tonally for the book, thoughts)

The Midnight Hour by Eve Chase (slow and hokey)

The Other Wife by Jackie Thomas-Kennedy (can’t relate to college nostalgia)

Little Movements by Lauren Morrow (solid)

Clown Town by Mick Herron (solid)

The Girlfriend by Michelle Frances (campy! they made some big changes for the show)

Play Nice by Rachel Harrison (could have been cute but was slow)

Universality by Natasha Brown (fun concept)

Night People: How to Be a DJ in 90’s New York City by Mark Ronson (loved the music references)
Why We Die by Mick Herron (solid)

Kill Your Darlings by Peter Swanson (cute)

Murder on the Marlow Belle by Robert Thorogood (cute, better than the last one)

The Vanishing Place by Zoe Rankin (a little grim and convoluted but I liked the NZ setting)

The Kind Worth Killing by Peter Swanson (kind of gross about women but maybe that was the character?)

The Kind Worth Saving by Peter Swanson (ok, good as an audiobook)

Awake by Jen Hatmaker (shallow in a way I didn’t expect)

All Consuming: Why We Eat the Way We Eat Now by Ruby Tandoh (fun but choppy)

A Talent of Murder by Peter Swanson (ok)
