I think that I was way too excited to read this and that my expectations were too high. I liked the choose your own concept but I didn’t like Marsh at all.

Such a great story about changing your life! Took a bit to get into and into the flow but overall not bad!

This book had a lot of animals in it. It was very creative. My favorite part was when they slid on the ice like a polar Bears. I also liked that it had facts on the back about polar bears.

I love how she worked hard and learned to read.

I usually enjoy Reese's Book Club picks and The House in the Pines was an enjoyable book although not what I expected. The book is written in third person with the main protagonist being a young 25-year-old named, Maya. When she was eighteen, Maya dated a man named Frank and she seemed to lose significant periods of time when with him. A key event is when Maya's best friend, Aubrey, just died for no reason when having a conversation with Frank. Fast forward to 7 years later when Maya was 25 and saw a video on social media where the same Frank is in a booth at a diner in Maya's hometown of Pittsfield, MA, and the woman across from him also suddenly dies while just talking to Frank. While depicted as a thriller, the book is just about Frank's interesting ability (no spoiler alert). My favorite parts of the book dealt with Maya's Guatemalan background, her late father, and her visits to Guatemala City.

I’m a big fan of William Kent Krueger. I’ve read all of his books. This was his best book yet. The story contains tough subject matter but it’s told in a beautiful way. The story keeps you guessing and invested in the characters’ lives.

As a former tennis player, I just loved this book. The author again (like in all her books) makes everything seem so real with all her research into the subject. Highly recommend!

I liked this one more than the first book in the series. I like Jane and Jimmy’s alternate chapters. The ending was open ended and I think there will be another book in this series which I am looking forward to reading.

It was a different type of a book. I listened to it rather than reading it. I am not sure I like Cara. She doesn’t seem to self reflect about how she treated her son and what she did to him like as mothering him too much and throwing an iron at him. She doesn’t seem to really look at her own weaknesses.

Entertaining and twisty story about a lawyer-turned-venture capital investigator who is tasked as acting as a liaison to the FBI. They're investigating the murder of a tech company CEO. Layered, complicated, and suspenseful—keeps you guessing. Highly recommend.
