When No One is Watching. A mini review.

March 20, 2021March 19, 2021 / beckmank / 1 Comment

4/5 Stairs. When No One is Watching is labeled as a "psychological thriller," and it definitely was. I think this is a must-read for everyone. Ms. Cole tackles some very important topics, puts things in perspective, and really makes you think. Great read.

Recent Reads: Four Great Thrillers

December 11, 2020 / beckmank / Leave a comment

Four great thrillers that I've read in 2020. All four have two things in common: They have multiple narrators, and they are all page turners.

The Mother-in-Law. Not what I was expecting, but even better than I imagined.

March 10, 2020 / beckmank / Leave a comment

5/5 Stairs to The Mother-in-Law. A fantastic novel about two strong women that reminds you there are two sides to every story. Highly recommended.

We’ve got a cold and dreary day while our latest snow storm moves in. Perfect for cuddling up with a good read. #bookstagram #springtimeincolorado #dogsandbooks #whatareyoureading
Current (reading) situation. My lap isn’t big enough, but where there’s a will, there’s a way. #readchristie2021 #dogsandbooks #doglife #bookstagram
I got my first audiobook from #netgalley ! I love #truecrime and #deathonoceanboulevard is right up my alley, as author Caitlin Rother investigates the mysterious 2011 death of Rebecca Zaharia. About two hours in; enjoying it so far!
So excited to get #wildwomenandtheblues from @kensingtonbooks ! How gorgeous is this cover?! I love that it’s #historicalfiction with a dual timeline. Really looking forward to reading this #betweenthechapters pick!
