Since I’m catching up on my reading this week and haven’t got a full review today, I thought I’d participate in Friday Finds, a meme hosted by Jenn at Books and a beat which gives us a chance to share recent books we’ve added to our never-ending TBR pile. I have to say I’ve added A LOT of books lately so I’m going to narrow it down to the top 4 I’m really looking forward to reading…..
For fans of The Nanny Diaries and Sophie Kinsella comes a whip-smart and deliciously funny debut novel about Kate, a young woman unexpectedly thrust into the cutthroat world of New York City private school admissions as she attempts to understand city life, human nature, and falling in love.
**Check out my review on the Blog Tour Dec 28th!!**
For fans of Twin Peaks and The Truth about the Harry Quebert Affair, this brilliant debut is dark yet hilarious, suspenseful and sad. Everyone has a secret in Tall Oaks . . .
When three-year-old Harry goes missing, the whole of America turns its attention to one small town.
Everyone is eager to help. Everyone is a suspect.
In his sleek, visceral novels Deviant Way, Kiss of Evil, and The Violet Hour, Richard Montanari slammed into the suspense field like a force of nature. Now Montanari has written an astounding novel that pits two besieged detectives against a fiercely intelligent serial killer.
**Recommended to me by Annie at The Misstery, this is an author and series I’m looking forward to reading**
In the tradition of The Girl on the Train, The Silent Wife, and Gone Girl comes an enthralling psychological thriller that spins one woman’s seemingly good fortune, and another woman’s mysterious fate, through a kaleidoscope of duplicity, death, and deception.
**I have been steering clear of books compared to Gone Girl and Girl on the Train but based on some of the glowing reviews for this one I have to give it a try!**
I’d love to hear your top Friday Finds this week so feel free to leave your picks in my comments, Happy Friday Everyone!
I just added Some Day, Some Day, Maybe by Lauren Graham to my goodreads TBR. I love Lauren Graham on Gilmore Girls and Parenthood so I’m excited to see how she is as an author 😀
I have that somewhere on my goodreads TBR shelf:) I also liked her in Parenthood
I haven’t read any of these books but I have heard about The Girl Before. The Rosary Girls also looks good. Enjoy your new finds. Great weekend 🙂
That cover for The Girl Before is enticing before you even read the blurb. I hope you enjoy these!
Thanks and thanks for stopping by and commenting:)
Ohhhh 😀 I hope you love Tall Oaks (and of course, The Rosary Girls!)! Let’s see if The Girl Before is as great as they’re saying!!
Yes, very interested in seeing if that lives up to the hype. Thanks for your recs this week:)
I’m very tempted by The Girl Before but all of your finds look to be good ones.
Thanks, I’m excited to get started on those, I think The Girl Before is still on Netgalley:)
Love the sound of Tall Oaks, and I’ve just added it to my wish list 🙂 I’ve been hearing a lot about The Girl Before, and it will be interesting to see if it lives up to the hype.
Great! I’m really hoping to read both of those this week:) If The Girl Before does live up to the hype I’ll be very excited!!
“The girl before” is also on my TBR! I’ve read Richard Montanari before and enjoyed his work. Your other two titles/authors are new to me. Thanks for sharing your book anticipation.
You’re welcome and thanks for stopping by and commenting. I hope The Girl Before lives up to the anticipation:)
I’ve been really wanting to read The Girl Before. In fact, I started it twice, but haven’t been in the right frame of mind for it. I hear it’s so good – here’s hoping that’s true!
I’m also hoping it lives up to the hype and I don’t decide I’m not in the mood:)
