    I loved this book! It does have second chance romance in it, but it also deals with other important issues outside of a relationship. I loved Audre, Eva’s daughter; she was so smart and driven. I also really loved the relationship between Audre and Eva.  The writing was so good! This story was well written, developed, and oftentimes witty and…

    Book Review: Milk Fed by Melissa Broder Many have called this book, sexy, erotic, and funny. I would not use any of those words to describe it. It was fascinating, strange, repulsive, and uncomfortable. This book isn’t really just about an eating disorder or mommy issues. It was a weird exploration of desire and hunger—for food, sex, intimacy, love, and…

I kept seeing great reviews but I also heard it had a slower pace. It’s true, this is a really slow burn. BUT Enjoyably slow and so worth it.  Addie Larue lives invisibly for 300 years because of a deal she makes with…

I was obsessed and kept telling myself I’d read just one more chapter but then couldn’t put it down. It was haunting and full of gothic goodness. This story takes place in the 1950s in Mexico.

Perfect timing to post this one—I was just discu Perfect timing to post this one—I was just discussing Exodus with @blvckbookworm 

If I go get a raven tattoo it’s not because of these books, ok? …😏

This series is…Wild. A rollercoaster. Emotional draining. frustrating. addictive.

And yet…I was so invested. The second book was a lot and I almost gave up on the series, but then Finish Line changed my mind.

Is this series amazing literary work? Absolutely not. But it’s captivating & you’ll need to know what happens in the end.

You’re Invited by Amanda Jayatissa Genre: Psycho You’re Invited by Amanda Jayatissa
Genre: Psychological Thriller
Pub day: August 9, 2022

📍SYNOPSIS:
When Amaya receives an invitation to the lavish Sri Lankan wedding of her ex-boyfriend and her ex-best friend she is surprised. It’s been years since Amaya and Kaavi have been in touch. On top of that, she is hurt to see that Kaavi was dating her ex-boyfriend. Amaya decides she has to stop this wedding at all costs. When Kaavi goes missing the night before her wedding, all signs point to Amaya, but nothing is as it seems.

📍MY THOUGHTS:
So so good. I really enjoyed that the story takes place in Sri Lanka. I was introduced to culture, especially surrounding weddings, family, and gender roles. The story touches on patriarchal values in Sri Lanka and effects on women. All the women in this story are smart, brave, and fight against misogyny; feminism is a strong theme.

The beginning drops you right into the action. The pacing changes throughout but I would say this is a medium paced thriller; I was invested the entire time. 

I did guess some things along the way but did not know how it would all play out. There is one main character, but there are multiple POV’s with unreliable narrators.

I definitely recommend reading this book!

👉🏽It’s out now through Book of The Month if you can’t wait until release day (also it’s cheaper this way). You can get your first book for $5 if you use the link in my bio. 😜

Are you excited for this one? Have you read it already?
