📖 𝓑𝓸𝓸𝓴 𝓡𝓮𝓿𝓲𝓮𝔀 📖⁣ ⁣ Happy Saturday everyone!⁣ ⁣ Today I’m on tour with @suzyapprovedbooktours for 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘔𝘰𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘳’𝘴 𝘋𝘢𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘦𝘳 by @donnaeve2!⁣ ⁣ Set in the 1960s of North Carolina, Jessie Sasser comes from a line of moonshiners and moonshining essentially runs through their veins. When Jessie was four years old, she watched her mother burn to death from an accident with the stills. Her father refuses to discuss what happened. Now Jessie is torn with the tradition and stake her family has in moonshine business and the profits that put food on their table. ⁣ ⁣ This story is an incredible coming of age story that is raw and full of grit. I loved following Jessie and her inner strength. Jessie battles with an eating disorder, which affects her vision of her appearance and self-esteem. The author did a fantastic job of approaching this topic in a tasteful manner that doesn’t feel like Jessie’s condition was placed into the plot for argument’s sake.⁣ ⁣ It was clear that this was a well researched novel with characters that really make this story come to life. Overall, if you love a good family drama that also dapples in historical fiction with a taste of the south then definitely pick this one up! ⁣ ⁣ Rating: 4/5 ⭐️’s⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ 𝑯𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓 𝒕𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒅 𝑴𝒐𝒐𝒏𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒆?⁣ ⁣ I have.

Hαρρყ Fɾιԃαყ Jɾ ҽʋҽɾყσɳҽ!⁣ ⁣ This week has been ROUGH for me, so I’m wishing for the weekend! I started my new job, which I love, but commuting again is NOT fun. At least commuting = audiobooks! ⁣ ⁣ So, I’ve been thinking about some books that I’m dying to read this year, and here is just some of my must reads. I want to give a HUGE thank you to the tagged publishers for my #giftedcopy! ⁣ ⁣ Cheers to 2020 being a fantastic reading year with these amazing books 🥂⁣ ⁣ 📚 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫? 📚⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #2020reads #mustreads #anticipatedreads #fantasy #horror #thriller #booksbooksandmorebooks #booksharks #bookwineandmetime #bionicbookbabes #readersofinstagram #bookbloggerlife #alwaysreading #bookobsessed #bookhoarder #bookstoread #bookwormproblems #bookaholic
Ⓟⓤⓑ Ⓓⓐⓨ {@berkleypub partner}⁣ ⁣ Happy Tuesday everyone! Another Tuesday means another pub day!! 📖🎉⁣ ⁣ Happy book birthday to How Quickly She Disappears by @raymond.fleischmann (thank you to @berkleypub for my gifted copy!) ⁣ ⁣ I’m half way through this book, and loving it! If you’re a fan of psychological thrillers such as Silence of the Lambs then this one will be right up your alley! ⁣ ⁣ Synopsis:⁣ ⁣ It's been twenty years since Elisabeth’s twin sister, Jacqueline, disappeared without a trace. Now thirty-year-old Elisabeth is living far from home in a small Alaskan town. She's in a loveless marriage and has a precocious young daughter she loves more than anything but who reminds her too much of her long-missing sister. ⁣ ⁣ But then Alfred, a dangerous stranger with a plan of his own, arrives in town and commits an inexplicable act of violence. And he offers a startling revelation: He knows exactly what happened to Elisabeth's sister, but he'll reveal this truth only if she fulfills his three requests. ⁣ ⁣ Increasingly isolated from her neighbors and imprisoned by the bitter cold and her own obsession, Elisabeth can almost hear her sister's voice saying,  Come and find me. And so she will, even if it means putting herself—and her family—in danger.⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ 𝑨𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝒂𝒏𝒚 𝒏𝒆𝒘 𝒓𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒔𝒆𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒚𝒐𝒖’𝒓𝒆 𝒍𝒐𝒐𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒅 𝒕𝒐?⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #HowQuicklySheDisappears #RaymondFleischmann #berkleypub #psychologicalthriller #thriller #bookwineandmetime #booksharks #bionicbookbabes #newreleasetuesday #newbookalert #bookstagram #amreading #currentlyreading #thrillerbooks #alwaysreading #bookbirthday
