Overall, I enjoyed Bitter Passage. Initially, I was excited about the book but soon found myself growing disengaged as the pace was slow. When Mills finally introduced some action, I became committed to finishing the book. ⏳📚💙

Over the course of four hours, Still House is packed with unsettling occurrences. Is the house haunted? Were the tenants under the influence of drugs? Did they leave voluntarily or were they abducted? ⚡️📚🎧📚💙

I continue to be impressed by Freida McFadden’s remarkable talent for suspenseful storytelling. Her ability to immerse me into the story so deeply that once I start a book, I want to shut out the world with my AirPods until the end. ⚡️📚🎧📚💙

Fiona Davis is one of my favorite historical fiction novelists, and one author that I have read all of her books. I acknowledge that I am about to express an unpopular opinion: while The Stolen Queen was enjoyable, it did not fully resonate with me as some of her other novels have. ⏳📚🎧📚💙

I thoroughly enjoyed Elvis and Me by Priscilla Presley. I was genuinely surprised by the revelations I gained, and I must admit to being somewhat disappointed to discover the extent of Elvis’s unfavorable traits. 💙📚

It’s been too long since I’ve read a @josephfinderbooks.bsky.social book! The Oligarch’s Daughter is an outstanding, suspenseful, fast-paced spy thriller — I kept turning the pages as I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen next! This book is full of intensity! ⚡️📚💙
