Randomnerd | 3 comments I'm not entirely what year this was read, maybe around 5 or 6 years ago. I got it for my daughter at the library and neither of us can remember the title.

Becca (beccalikesbooks) | 5545 comments Was this a children's book? Or possibly a young adult book (for teenagers)? Was the setting historical or contemporary?

Randonnerd, what's the genre or tone (which we need to add to the header/topic title) - e.g., for children, teens or adults? mystery, fantasy, coming of age?

What is the story's time period and location?

What type of statues?

I added a few details to the header/topic title. You can update it by clicking the small "edit" link after the header. This only works on the full Desktop website - not the Mobile website or app. (On the Mobile website, click the "Desktop version" link at the bottom of the page.)

Honestly I don't know. My kid at college texted me this question at midnight the other day and now it's bugging me. She read it on a summer vacation with her grandmother in Tennessee and doesn't remember anything else about the book, so I'm not entirely sure what she remembers is even accurate. I used to work at the library in town and the amount of books I checked out for her was astronomical. I've tried all my other librarian tricks to figure it out, and nothing. So I thought I'd throw it in here and see if it clicked anything.

No idea. My kid at college texted me the question the other night. I used to work at the library and nothing I've tried to figure it out has worked, so she probably has some details wrong. I just thought I'd try this and see if it clicked in anybody's mind.

Monica | 1 comments Totally out of context. But i really need to find this book. So, here this go. There are two badass sisters but the younger one is introvert and is attracted to her sisters fiance(mc) & the mc also reciprocate the feelings & is very possessive of her. She kinda feels bad about the affair but she knows that the marriage is just for a business purposes. Meanwhile the older sister is kinda having an affair with some old dude who works for them and is very creepy. The mc has to kill him because he betrayed them but elder sister don't want to accept that & is very heartbroken coz she loved him. so in the end the book shows the elder sister is after blood of everyone. I read it in the year 2018 or 2019. Sorry I'm commenting here cuz i wasn't able to comment anywhere else.

Monica, you need to make your own thread / post. Here are the instructions for how to do that - it's easier to do on desktop than mobile. https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
