The Box in the Woods by Maureen Johnson centers around one of my favorite subjects: solving cold cases. It’s been awhile since I finished the original Truly Devious trilogy. I was thrilled when I found out there was more to Stevie Bell’s story. Thankfully I didn’t really need to remember what happened in the last book. Stevie is on summer break from Ellingham when she […]
Deep in Providence by Riss M. Neilson {Stephanie’s Review}

It was an added bonus that Lillian from Mom with a Reading Problem wanted to buddy read with me. Namesake picked up right where Fable left off. The first 20% really seemed to move kind of slowly. This sometimes happens […]
