Gone Tomorrow by Lee Child {Stephanie’s Review}
[book-info] I rolled a Mystery/Thriller genre on my TBR Monopoly board. I’ve been itching to read the next book in the Jack Reacher Series. I saw an opportunity and grabbed it.

The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan {Stephanie’s Review}
[book-info] I had a middle grade prompt from my TBR Monopoly board roll. I’ve been meaning to get to the Percy Jackson books and this seemed like the perfect time. I haven’t read any of them yet so I started with The Lightning Thief. Overall I really enjoyed The Lightning Thief. As a 35 year…

The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins {Stephanie’s Review}
[book-info] Who isn’t reading The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins right now? I read it because it filled a prompt for my TBR Monopoly and I was very curious if lightning strikes twice. I’m sad to report that it didn’t for me. I was in love with this concept. It’s 10 years…

Fable by Adrienne Young {Stephanie’s Review}
[book-info] I decided to read Fable by Adrienne Young because I really enjoyed Sky in the Deep. I didn’t love The Girl the Sea Gave Back as much. When I heard Young had a new release I had to give it a shot! The title really caught my attention and I wanted to know which…

June 2020 BSC Nostalgia Reads {Stephanie’s Review}
[book-info] This really wasn’t a mystery at all but I still really enjoyed it. I loved seeing Janine and Claudia start to bond. I missed so much of this with my own sister. (Don’t worry! We’re besties now!) I really liked seeing a different dimension to Janine. I also appreciated that Claudia wasn’t the one…
