  This could easily end up being the best book I read this year. It's incredible how much I disliked the main character, and yet I couldn't put the book down. An incredible examination of current social media culture as an influencer is transported…Read moreRead more of this annotation

  Add Mesa Verde Victim to your for later shelf

  I heard that Scott Graham will be visiting the Phillip and Jerry Miller Library in Castle Rock in June and thought I would give him a read. This sixth entry in the National Parks Mystery series blends great local color with a great amateur sleuth --…Read moreRead more of this annotation

• Listen for the Lie

  a Novel

  Tintera, Amy

  Add Listen for the Lie to your for later shelf

  The audio of this one is very well done and very effective because it features a podcast and its host who is intent on solving a long dormant murder in a small Texas town. Snarky and hilarious.

• Expensive Basketball

  Serrano, Shea

  Add Expensive Basketball to your for later shelf

• Alchemised

  SenLinYu

  Add Alchemised to your for later shelf

  There was some serious side eye from me when I saw the over 1,000 page count on this one, but found myself perpetually compelled to know what would come next with this story of morally grey characters doing what needs to be done in a time of war.
