by Holly Goddard Jones
This book was good, but depressing, but good, but I hated the ending.The story is told from several character's POV, and I have to say that each of these characters is depressing in his or her own way. There's just so much desperation going on, not so much outright, but it's there. You'll cringe a...
This book has a blurb from Gillian Flynn on the cover, so stop reading now if you hated Gone Girl, because as you may know, I didn’t. (Listen, haters, I get it. We can still be friends; we just can’t talk about that book. Honestly, keep reading; there may be something here for you yet.) This was t...
If this is what Holly Goddard Jones does for a debut novel, I can’t wait for what comes next!

One of the most interesting aspects of the book is how the rip...
*Won The Next Time You See Me from Goodreads First Reads.*DNFJust didn't keep me interested.

3.5/5 StarsThis book started off incredibly strong for me. I loved the mystery and the characters. However, in the last quarter of the book, I couldn't help but get the feeling that the author was just trying to wrap up the book. It lost some of its power and just tapered off. I was looking for a BA...
What do a middle school English teacher, a middle aged factory worker, a thirteen year old misfit and the town tramp have in common? They are all on a collision course that can't have a good resolution. Each one believes that life owes them more than what they got. This book had alot of potential...
