The Tale Of Mr. Tod

Stars 5/5

The Tale Of Mr. Tod by Beatrix Potter

This is not the first time I have read the Beatrix Potter books but I found this one and had to re-read it. I just love these books. This is the 14th book in the series. This story is about a bunny-napping and how they were going to be turned into meat pies but of course, Benjamin and Peter come to save the day. I just loved this book as well as the series. 

The Murder List

Stars 5/5

The Murder List by Hank Phillippi Ryan

WOW! This is one twisty mystery that I really loved. Amazingly creative and unique. The story follows Rachel North, a woman who is studying law and is married to a top defensive attorney in the city. Rachel is chosen to work as an intern for the county prosecutor's office in what she sees as a perfect way to learn their strategies to help her become a star defense attorney that is until she finds out that the case they will be working on is one from her past. I do not want to go into the story more as to not spoil it but I highly recommend it.

The Lying Game

Stars 4/5

The Lying Game by Ruth Ware

I really enjoyed this creative and unique twisty tale of mystery. I need to be honest and say that I would of gave this five stars but I think all the breastfeeding chit chat could of been left out because it seemed to overtake the true plot of the story. I realize that it could of been added to represent the bond between parent and child but honestly I feel like the story was strong enough with out it. The book follows Isabel as she receives a text from a friend she had not seen in ages which read "I need you". Isabel then takes the train to Salten, a coastal village, where she attended boarding school to meet up with Fatima, Thea and Kate because some old bones have been found. I don't want to go into the story more as to not spoil the mystery but I do recommend the book.

Third Girl (Hercule Poirot #38)

Stars 5/5

Third Girl (Hercule Poirot #38) by Agatha Christie

This is the next book in the Hercule Poirot series and I really loved it. The third girl is the third girl to be a room mate to help pay the rent. In this book, Hercule Poirot is visited by a young lady that wants to know if she could get help to find out if she is a murderer but soon tells Hercule to forget it that he is too old. I just loved that part LOL! Hercule is never too old to solve the case. I highly recommend this book as well as the series.

The Clocks (Hercule Poirot #37)

Stars 5/5

The Clocks (Hercule Poirot #37) by Agatha Christie

This is the next book in the Hercule Poirot series. This is one of those stories where Hercule is instructing from the side lines. It all begins with a young lady stumbling over a dead man in a blind lady's house. I really enjoyed this tale but as always I wish Hercule was apart of the story more. I do highly recommend it though.

The Whisper Man

Stars 5/5

The Whisper Man by Alex North

I received a free ARC of The Whisper Man by Alex North from Macmillan in exchange for an honest review. I really enjoyed this creative and creepy story! The book follows Tom and his son Jake as they move to town after the death of his wife to start fresh. The house they move into is known as "spooky house" in town because a boy went missing and was later found murdered. The town is plagued with a serial killer and Tom's son Jake is talking about the Whisper Man. I don't want to go into the story more as to not spoil it but I highly recommend it especially for a spooky Halloween read. Thanks Macmillan for this awesome book.

The Adventures Of The Christmas Pudding (Hercule Poirot #35)

Stars 5/5

The Adventure Of The Christmas Pudding (Hercule Poirot #35) by Agatha Christie

This is the 35th book in the Hercule Poirot series and it is a collection of short stories which I really loved. The book follows Hercule Poirot on different adventures to solve the case. I highly recommend this book as well as all books from Agatha Christie. I just love her work and writing style. She will always be the Queen of Mystery!
