I read:The Wife Between Us (3/5)
I want to read:
The Woman in the Window
The Broken Girls
Sometimes I Lie
Bring Me Back
Providence
The Perfect Mother
Baby Teeth
This is my favorite genre!!!!
I've already read The Wife Between Us, The Chalk Man, and The Good Liar! I have several more I need to get to, and even more I plan to purchase! Looks like a good year. :)
Force of Nature is on my tbr ebook pile, waiting for The Chalk Man to be released here. I wished the publication date for Terry Hayes book wouldn’t change so much, read preview last year and it was good.
God I just keep adding books I want to read, there are so many good ones coming out I can't stand it lol, well I will try my best!!!
Well, about half of those are on Mount TBR with future consideration going to several others. Great little heads up about what's coming out. Thanks for this!
Two new ones I am looking forward to this year are "Dead If You Don't" (Roy Grace #14) by Peter James, and "The Dark Angel" (Ruth Galloway #10) by Elly Griffiths.
I am number 25 in line for Woman in the Window at my local library and I cannot wait! I read an excerpt on LitHub and knew I had to read it

I don't know about your library but if they only have 1 copy you better have a lot of patience. You'll wait from 25 to 50 weeks after putting in your hold. Kindle edition is only $14 CDN and Hardcover $33 so why wait if you really want to read it? And yeah I do think $14 is too much for an eBook!

OMG I think I just added 6 more books to my To Read list - which just keeps growing!!! I can't possibly read ALL of my books on my list but I can't stop putting more titles on the list. I guess I could have worse obsessions, eh?
Like reading the Adventure books, "Tahiti Adventure:Case of the Eyes" by Deanna PaigeSecond book is "Cajun Adventure: Case for the Missing Birds"
They have romance and mystery.

Jane Harper’s Force of Nature and Jo Nesbo’s Macbeth, because of the authors, and Karen Clevland’s Need to Know, due to the subject matter, are likely to be at the top of my priority list
I am reading The Wife Between Us and on page 78 I made a prediction. I'm only on page 150 now so I don't want anyone to spoil it for me but I am thinking that there might be a third woman in the picture (or behind the scenes). Can't wait to finish to see where this takes me. All in all, though, I'm not liking Richard one bit!
The sisters Chase. Sarah Healy. Fabulous novel. One of the best of 2017 but very much overlooked as it was not listed on goodreads or other best seller lists. Everybody should read this novel that grabs your heart.
Anything by Kellerman (both),J.D.Robb,Lisa Gardner..too many to name.

I’ve read Exclusive,Never Look Away and No Time for Goodbye. All three fabulous reads. This is just the beginning!!!
I am surprised you don't list "Lola" by Melissa Scrivner Love. I thought it was amazing...couldn't put it down. And when I was finished I wanted more. Melissa Scrivner Love was just nominated for an Edgar Award for Best First Novel.
Just finished The Wife Between Us. Good book but not the gasp in my throat thriller. Read it in two days so it is a book well worth looking into if you are into the suspense/psychological story. Might make a good movie. Who knows.
Books I'm looking forward to that aren't on your list: Operator Down by Brad Taylor
Hellbent by Gregg Hurwitz
Into the Black Nowhere by Meg Gardiner
Bloody Sunday by Ben Coes
Even though I don't read James Patterson, I will definitely read "The President is missing" particularly as it's co-written by a former President of the US. I am also looking forward to the new Elizabeth George as I love her Lynley & Havers books.
