Make Up Reading

 5 out of 5 stars This was a really fun mystery/thriller  and it has been a long time since I read a good mystery. I have been reading a lot of fantasy novellas and this really hit at the right time.  There is nothing better than a good toxic friendship and two time lines to keep me entertained. I read Too Good to be True by Lovering and I really enjoyed it and this was just as good. The narrators Helen Laser and Karissa Vacker did a great job voicing Billie and Cassie. I will say that I found myself kind of more on Billie's side.

 5 out of 5 stars This was a really well written mystery set in the town of Graybridge which I would love to revisit. Only after reading this did I find out that this was not the first book that has featured Detective Rita Myers whom I really found enjoyable. I will be reading All the Dark Places. I also really enjoyed the two POVs of Rita and Esme and the narrators  Christina Moore and Leah Horowitz  were amazing. I enjoyed the mystery and kind of loved that Esme used to be a ballerina. 

4.5 out of 5 stars Thank you for allowing me to read this in exchange for an honest review.  Teddy's older sister Angie snuck out to go to a party one night and never returned. Her whole life became all about her missing sister no matter how hard she tried to move on Teddy never really could. This really felt a lot like Sadie by Courtney Summers in that sad melancholy way.  

 4 out of 5 stars I was given this arc in exchange for an honest review. I am not sure I have ever read a Rachel Hawkins book but I do know that there have been a few I have wanted to read. This really interested me.  I love the idea of a family matriarch being a mystery where the secrets are slowly revealed. The story was good and the narration by Dan Bittner, Eliza Foss, Patti Murin and John Pirhalla was excellent. I did knock off one star just because it felt so much like The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo with murder. This was still a really fun rad and I would suggest this for a Summer beach read.
