Speaking of...Murder Monday!⠀ .⠀ Happy Monday everyone! I started American Predator last night before bed, because I’m an idiot. If you didn’t know already I’m obsessed with serial killer & cult stories. I picked up American Predator in my @bookofthemonth this month & honestly I have no words. 😲 I’m not quite done with the book yet but like if anyone has read this book dm me so we can chat! For those who wanna know more about this one here’s the gist.⠀ .⠀ Most of us have never heard of Israel Keyes. But he is one of the most ambitious, meticulous serial killers of modern time. The FBI considered his behavior unprecedented. Described by a prosecutor as "a force of pure evil," he was a predator who struck all over the United States. He buried "kill kits"--cash, weapons, and body-disposal tools--in remote locations across the country and over the course of fourteen years, would fly to a city, rent a car, and drive thousands of miles in order to use his kits. He would break into a stranger's house, abduct his victims in broad daylight, and kill and dispose of them in mere hours. And then he would return home, resuming life as a quiet, reliable construction worker devoted to his only daughter. American Predator is the ambitious culmination of years of on-the-ground interviews with key figures in law enforcement and in Keyes's life, and research uncovered from classified FBI files. Callahan takes us on a journey into the chilling, nightmarish mind of a relentless killer, and the limitations of traditional law enforcement, in one of America's most isolated environments--Alaska--when faced with a killer who defies all expectation and categorization.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #murdermonday #serialkiller #americanpredator #truecrime #botm #maireencallahan #vikingbooks #speakingof #speakingofbooks #speakingofblog #nonfictionbooks #bibliophiles #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #impressnails

Speaking of...bookish things! ⠀ .⠀ Happy Friday bookworms! Yesterday my order & rep box came in from @themeltinglibrary & I’m in love with the designs of so many of these candles. I like using burning candles, especially when I read, but I love these even more because they’re all inspired by books or characters I adorable. I can’t wait to burn some of them later this week! ⠀ .⠀ I’m not a huge collector of things besides books & clothes. I do collect magnets from my travels & growing up I had these collectible Harry Potter figurines but besides that I wouldn’t say I’m a ‘collector’. So I was wondering what type of things do you like to collect? Anything bookish related?? ⠀ .⠀ @themeltinglibaray just launched their summer collection, which my personal favs are Circe’s Island & In Fair Verona. Use my code SPEAKING10 for 10% off any order!⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #speakingof #speakingofbooks #speakingofblog #rep #bookishcandles #candlelove #themeltinglibrary #infairverona #romeoandjuliet #hpcandles #bookish #lunalovegood #theshire #lotr #candlemaker #bookandcandle

Speaking of...Book Signings!⠀ .⠀ Y’all I went to my first book signing & author meet up yesterday in Austin at @bookpeople and had so much fun. @readwithwine & @hemysbookclub made the drive from SA to Austin with me and we had so much fun! Plus we got to meet Riley Sager and I finally got my physical copy of Lock Every Door! #winning .⠀ As a huge fan of Rosemary’s Baby, Lock Every Door is my favorite of Sagers books so far. Thanks to @duttonbooks & @netgalley for my ARC. If you need more convincing to read it, check out my full review over on the blog.
