BLOG TOUR REVIEW | The Cousins | Karen M. McManus

I'm a huge Karen M. McManus fan, and I reviewed One of Us is Lying here and One of Us is Next here. So when I saw the chance to get on a blog tour for this incredible book with The Write Reads, I jumped at it. I absolutely loved this complicated family drama between estranged cousins and their mysterious grandmother. Rating: 5 stars

October Wrap Up

Finally my incredibly reading-slumpy October is over, and I can start fresh before clearurshit! I read 12 books, a total of 4391 pages and my average rating was 4.56 out of 5 stars - so at least all the books I did read were excellent!

One of Us is Lying by Karen McManus (Review)

I guess we're almost friends now, or as friendly as you can get when you're not one hundred percent sure the other person isn't framing you for murder. Less than a week until the release of One of Us is Next so I just had to reread One of Us is Lying to catch myself … Continue reading One of Us is Lying by Karen McManus (Review) →

This has been a surprisingly productive month, considering how busy work was and the fact that I was assassinated by the flu for a full week (and by Star Wars fanfiction). A good … Continue reading December Wrap Up and 2019 Stats! →
