The Unlucky Ones
Hello, Transcriber was one of my very first books I read as a reviewer and so The Black Harbor series is always an automatic read for me. I’ve really enjoyed listening to most of the series and so I knew I had to listen to The Unlucky Ones, to keep the tradition alive. Our main…

After loving Vera Wong’s Unsolicited Advice for Murderers in 2023, I was stoked to get an advanced copy of Vera Wong’s Guide to Snooping (on a Dead Man). With the…
Butcher & Blackbird
I fully admit that Booktok & Booksta made me read this one…and I’m not made about it at all! Other than ruining orzo and ice cream for me, Butcher & Blackbird is everything I want out of a dark romance. Flipping between two serial killers, we follow Sloan and Rowan as they compete to claim,…
