Il mio omicidio

I can't count the number of times I go into a book with high expectations, drawn in by a heck of a premise, only to end up sorely disappointed. So imagine my surprise and delight when I encounter a book that's so much more than I thought it would be. Lou is part of a serial killer survivors group. Bu Leggi tutto

I was completely invested in this one until the reveal at the end.... Can't say much without spoilers....but it was one of the worst endings I've come across. FYI: Goodreads lists this as a mystery/thriller, but it is not. I like to check edelweiss for the proper genre, which lists this as women's fic Leggi tutto

This story is less about a woman solving her own murder than it is about what it means to be brought back to life as a clone of yourself and all Leggi tutto

We don't get a lot of speculative crime novels and this one does the speculative parts really well. By far the best parts of this book are its near-future world. A good near-future feels recognizable with a couple of big changes, and this is mostly right on. The crime novel part works, too, but the

This is an unusual book. In any typical murder mystery we have a few key points that we are addressing: victim, killer, and the individuals who solve the whodunit. As the novel progresses we as readers get to work alongside the detective or the amateur sleuth to identify the circumstances of the deat Leggi tutto

WAIT I LOVED THIS SO MUCH????

I’m having the worst luck with books lately. Just consider the innovative premise here: A woman murdered by a serial killer is brought back to life in a future society overflowing with technological advancements. Okay, she isn’t really brought back. It isn’t the once dead Lou sitting in on her seria Leggi tutto
