Review: 
Mariana, a group therapist, comes to Cambridge University because one of her niece's Zoe friends is found murdered. Determined to figure out who the culprit is, she comes back to the university where she once attended to help.
Mariana is very suspicious about a group of students called The Maidens. Although she is also very certain that the professor in charge of that group, Edward Fosca is the murderer. However the professor seems untouchable and always a step ahead of her and as more girls are found murdered her suspicion only grows even more! While things are spiralling out of control Mariana is determined more than ever to stop this killer even if she becomes one of his victims!
I loved how the author included his first book in this one, he included Theo and I was really surprised but delighted that these books were connected. Although I think I was kept on my toes a bit more on The Silent Patient this book was still amazing and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who loves thrillers/mysteries that are more in depth than what they seem to be like.
Now, I read the book then I listened to the audiobook. The narrator of the audiobook was amazing and I really enjoyed the cast as they changed back and forth that really added to the suspense of the book! I also enjoy hearing the story so, if you love enge of the seat thrillers then this one would definitely be one for you.
Thank you Netgally and Celadon Books as well as Macmillan Audio for the opportunity to read and review this one! Keep your eyes out for this one it comes out June 15, 2021 and you don't want to miss it!

So later when Cory goes to see Jordan he is surprised but not as surprised as he is when Cory tells him he has a son. So now they are pretending to be in a relationship and they are going to Jordan's fathers funeral. Now, this game gets too serious when Cory starts to actually get feelings for Jordan and Jordan is too stubborn to tell Cory he has the same feelings. This is a cute quick read and I loved it and binged it in one night!

Title: The Golden Couple  Author: Greer Hendricks & Sarah Pekkanen  Expected Publication: March 8, 2022 Publisher: St. Martin's Press  Genre: Mystery/ Thriller  Pages: 336 pages  Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review:  OMG This is one that I was really enthusiastic to read because I have loved EVERYTHING that these two authors have written and just a little secret (they didn't let me down! I was glued to my kindle the last 40% of the book!) Marissa Bishop sought out Avery Chambers to help her with her marriage. Marissa had a fling and she wanted to tell her husband in a controlled environment, where she and he could work out their differences and heal their marriage. Avery is just the unorthodox therapist to do this, see she only takes clients that she can help in 10 visits because she has a system that works. So while they work through her program they can be in a different place than when they first came to see her. So, while it seems that the Bishops are getting through their

My Review of The Shadow Man by Helen Fields

Title: The Shadow Man  Author: Helen Fields  Expected Publishing Date: Feb. 4, 2021 Published by: Avon Books UK  Genre: Mystery/ Thriller  Pages 400 pages  Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5  Review:  This is a different kind of thriller/horror book. An American profiler and psychologist is called in to help aid when a high profile abduction of Elspeth occurs after a murder of a similiar woman. Along with Detective Baarda she and he follow the abductions of a 12 year old child and of a parapalegic man. Trying to figure out the end game is all they can try to do and the twist and the turns of the case is absolutely horrifying. Fergus abducts them all to try to create the family he never had, not long after his introduction the reader can realize that he is not only physically but also mentally sick. He is so sick and twisted it's not even funny. This book follows the investigation and also gives an insight into Fergus's mind, and what an adventure that was. I definitely recommend this b
