Zero Hour (Audrey Harte #5)

Stars 5/5
Zero Hour (Audrey Harte #5) by Kate Kessler

I have to be honest and say that I am sad to see this series end. I just loved it and hope for more from this author. This is the fifth book in the Audrey Harte series and it was an amazing end. The story follows Audrey as she is called to help when the son of the notorious serial killer shows up and asks to speak to her and only her. A young woman, Gerri, is missing and time is running out to save her. I don't want to go into the story more as to not spoil it because this last book is a novella but I highly recommend it as well as the series. I will definitely miss spending time in this world.

OMG I really loved this book! Awesome story! The book follows Darcy, a woman who loved Tom since they first met as kids but because of her commitment issues he became engaged to another woman. Darcy spent most of her time traveling, having one night stands, and neglecting her health as she has a heart defect until her twin brother insists she stay to help refurbish their deceased aunt's cottage to sell and Tom is in charge of the renovations. I don't want to go into the story more as to not spoil it but I highly recommend this book.

Stars 5/5
The Great Alone by Kristin Hannah
(note... This book made it to my 2019 Favorites List)

I don't think I can express enough how much I loved this book. This book was amazing from cover to cover. The story follows Leni, a young girl in a very dysfunctional family. A father that was a POW in the Vietnam war that suffers from it and a mother that is so in love with him that she suffers his abuse and stays with him. Leni's father, Ernt, inherits some land from a friend he served with in the war and so he uproots his family to head to Alaska. At first Ernt is happy and learning the lessons of survival but as soon as things get hard he can not control his temper and his wife is brutalized again and again. Leni meets a young guy at school named Matthew and falls in love. Matthew's father wants to improve the town for tourists but Ernt is against this causing a rift in the town. I don't want to go more into the story as to not spoil it but this is a "Must Read"! I highly recommend it. This book made it to my 2019 Favorites List.

This is the fourth book in the Audrey Harte series and it was an amazing read. A young transgender girl comes up missing and then her body is found. Audrey is asked to counsel students at the local high school and help with the investigation. This story has lots of twists and turns and leaves the big reveal at the end. I highly recommend it.

The Thousandth Floor

Stars 5/5
The Thousandth Floor by Katharine McGee

I really loved this story! Very creative and unique. The book follows several characters that all live in the Tower of 1000 stories. Leda, a young girl that just spent the summer in rehab for her addiction to speed. Eris, a young girl that finds out her father is not her biological father and is forced to move to the lower floors of the Tower which is for the poor. Watt, a young guy that is a tech genius that finds out everyone's secrets for a price and Avery, the most genetically beautiful girl in the world that has the biggest secret of all plus all their friends. I don't want to go into the story more as to not spoil it but I loved all the characters. I highly recommend the book and I do plan on reading on in the series.
