Read To Death At The Lakeside Library (Lakeside Library Mystery, #3) by Holly Danvers opens in Lofty Pines, Wisconsin with library owner Rain Wilmot getting ready to host her first book club and discuss Agatha Christie's Sparkling Cyanide .  When one of the members dies under suspicious circumstances, Rain and best friend Julia take it on themselves to become amateur sleuths to find out what happens. I'd like to thank NetGalley and Crooked Lane Books for the Advanced Readers Copy (ARC) of Read To Death At The Lakeside Library (Lakeside Library Mystery, #3) by Holly Danvers.  Being a huge Agatha Christie fan, I knew I wanted to read Holly Danvers' latest book since the storyline revolved around one of Christie's novels.  When I was approved to receive a copy for free in exchange for my honest review, I was happy. All in all, I really enjoyed reading Read To Death At The Lakeside Library .  It was a super cute and fun read . . . a beach read if you will.  The only thing

Book Review: The Turn of the Key by Ruth Ware

If you're like me and love Friday the 13th, you'll want to read a book that oozes of creepiness. One such book that does just that is Ruth Ware's The Turn of the Key. It had me on edge the entire time, and if I didn't have to work in the morning, I would've stayed up all night to finish this novel; it was that good.

The Turn of the Key had me guessing the entire time, and I never had an inkling of who the killer was. Ruth Ware did her job well because she lead me astray the entire time, and I bought into it hook, line, and sinker. On top of that, there were a couple of twists towards the end of the book that left me completely speechless because I didn't see those coming either! What can I say, I must be off my deduction game.

When I finished this book on Wednesday night, all I could think was, "Wow . . . wow . . . wow!" As I said before, I was speechless, but it also left me feeling a bit uneasy, and I was jumping at the least little noise. It's been a while since a book left me feeling that way, and Ruth Ware definitely is becoming a better author with every book she produces. For me, The Turn of the Key ranks right up there with her The Woman in Cabin 10 as one of my favorite books by this author.

As I write this book review, I'm still in a bit of awe of this novel because I can see pieces of it really happening in real life. I think that's why I found it so chilling and why it would be a perfect read for Friday the 13th. I gave The Turn of the Key five out of five stars.

Synopsis of The Turn of the Key:  Rowan Caine wasn't looking for a new job; she just happened to stumble across an ad online that sounded like the dream job for a nanny and knew she just had to have the job. Thrilled when she landed the position, Rowan had no idea that it would turn into a living nightmare when one of the children dies while she is on the job and ends up in prison accused of the murdering the child.
