August Wrap-Up & September TBR
Research was the name of the game in July as I began writing my second novel. Utilizing feedback from my Beta Readers, I also reformatted and worked on the final edits of Days to Die.
In August, I decided to take a break and finally read a new book. Sarah Pearse's follow-up to The Sanitorium, The Retreat, was an excellent distraction. It was fast-paced and featured a cliff-hanger ending that had me excited to continue the series. It was another four-star read in the DC Elin Warner series.
Heading into Spooky Season, I am excited for Pumpkin Spice everything, Autumn, and Halloween. I have many thrillers on my TBR. Let's see how many I can read as I continue to write my second novel. My September aspirations include:
- A Game of Lies by Clare Mackintosh
- Still See You Everywhere by Lisa Gardner
- The Butcher and the Wren by Alaina Urquhart
- The Wilds by Sarah Pearse
- With a Vengeance by Riley Sager
