Eve Black kinda goes on and on and on…that I started to glaze over some parts that weren’t necessary. I feel like some parts we could have done without. Some parts of Eve’s book was just too long and boring. And it’s too bad because the whole idea of this book within a book was creative.
I found myself wanting to read more from Jim’s POV. At least his part was more interesting....more
Um how about a Lifetime drama movie with a side of secrets? Because that’s exactly how this entire book went. 95% family drama. I was quite hooked in Um how about a Lifetime drama movie with a side of secrets? Because that’s exactly how this entire book went. 95% family drama. I was quite hooked in the beginning. Then my eyes just started to glaze towards middle till the end.
Dialogue was quite cheesy. The only reason I’m not giving this 1 star is the last chapter....more

With all the mentions of: Tiktok, OnlyFans, cancel culture, X (the first time a book’s mentioned it even if everyone still calls it Twitter), hell even Amber Heard. I just appreciate books that don’t mention the current trending thing.
It’s really too bad because What Lies Between Us is one of my favorite books. This feels like it’s written by an entirely different person.
I’ve rolled my eyes plenty of times in this book. It reminded me so much of One of us is Dead by Jeneva Rose. And that one, I really hated. I couldn’t get into it so I had to DNF.
Didn’t care for any of the characters. Except maybe the cats. I didn’t care for the supernatural POV as well. And I feel really bad because I do like John Marrs as an author. But this was just not my cup of tea. I think I’ll re-read What Lies Between Us to get the bitter taste in my mouth lol. ...more

I’m supposed to see the high ratings. Disappointed with the reveal. I wouldn’t even call it “twist�. It was just a reveal…and I didn’t like it. Anyway. I only like the grandma lol.
I was devouring thrillers in a row. But since this disappointed me, I might go read another genre or something. ...more
Slow burn. But still pretty entertaining enough to finish. My only issue is how Lisa would construct her sentences. How I’m not sure who she’s talkingSlow burn. But still pretty entertaining enough to finish. My only issue is how Lisa would construct her sentences. How I’m not sure who she’s talking about.
An example (not from this book or any of the characters)
“Alicia and Olivia walked back from the store. She watched her friend read something from her phone as she frowned. Clearly something was bothering her.�
So something like that. Sometimes it wasn’t clear who the subject of the sentence was. ...more
I usually root for the main character or at least have sympathy for them. I didn’t like Jessica at all. I think Coop and Frankie were the only ones I I usually root for the main character or at least have sympathy for them. I didn’t like Jessica at all. I think Coop and Frankie were the only ones I liked.
I still enjoyed this book. It’s not as “thrilling� as I thought it would be. But I still enjoyed the twist. ...more
