Thanks @putnambooks & @lisascottoline for free review copy #parther. . . About Someone Knows: Bestselling and award-winning author Lisa Scottoline reaches new heights with this riveting novel about how a single decision can undo a family, how our past can derail our present, and how not guilty doesn't always mean innocent. Allie Garvey is heading home to the funeral of a childhood friend. Allie is not only grief-stricken, she's full of dread. Because going home means seeing the other two people with whom she shares an unbearable secret. Twenty years earlier, a horrific incident shattered the lives of five teenagers, including Allie. Drinking and partying in the woods, they played a dangerous prank that went tragically wrong, turning deadly. The teenagers kept what happened a secret, believing that getting caught would be the worst thing that could happen. But time has taught Allie otherwise. Not getting caught was far worse. Allie has been haunted for two decades by what she and the others did, and by the fact that she never told a soul. The dark secret has eaten away at her, distancing her from everyone she loves, including her husband. Because she wasn't punished by the law, Allie has punished herself, and it's a life sentence. Now, Allie stands on the precipice of losing everything. She's ready for a reckoning, determined to learn how the prank went so horribly wrong. She digs to unearth the truth, but reaches a shocking conclusion that she never saw coming–and neither will the reader. A deeply emotional examination of family, marriage, and the true nature of justice, Someone Knows is Lisa Scottoline's most powerful novel to date. Startling, page-turning, and with an ending that's impossible to forget, this is a tour de force by a beloved author at the top of her game. . . Is Someone Knows on your ‘want to read’ list? . . #booksofinstagram #bibliophile #booksofig #booksofinsta #bookstagramandcoffee #april2019bookrelease

4. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again- Make this year the year you start reading Bailey Weggins mysteries by Kate White.

 

5. Got approved yesterday for Never Have I Ever by Joshilyn Jackson. Then I found the perfect GIF to express my emotions 😉

 

6. Happy Pub Week to The Wartime Sisters!

#sponsored: Happy Pub Day to The Wartime Sisters by Lynda Loigman. . . About The Wartime Sisters: THE WARTIME SISTERS is a mesmerizing tale of sisterhood, sacrifices, and identity set against the backdrop of Brooklyn in the 1930s and the Springfield Armory during World War II. With this novel, Loigman examines the tenuous bonds of family and the ways in which our childhood roles define – and often haunt us – as adults, all the while painting an evocative portrait of the life women led and the contributions they made on the home front during the early days of the second World War. . . Doesn’t this sound like a great book to curl up with while enjoying a hot cup of coffee ☕️? . . @lloigman @getredpr @lorijill321 @stmartinspress . . #booksofinstagram #bibliophile #booksofig #booksofinsta #bookstagramandcoffee #wartimesisters #historicalfiction #ww2fiction

  5. I seriously love me some Mary Kay Andrews! She’s so funny. I do love Save the Date and all the Weezie and Bebe Mystery ones! Too bad about the Karin Slaughter book; she’s my favorite suspense author hands down and that’s my favorite standalone by her. Still, her Will Trent series is my favorite book series around! Thrilled a new one is coming out in August! Thanks again for the shout out. 😘
