The It Girl by Ruth Ware

For this review, I get into The It Girl by Ruth Ware, an author whom I have enjoyed very much in the past. When a group of friends are thrown back into their traumatic past in university, even though they are all grown up now. With the mystery of the past still looming over their heads, the question of whether they can go back to their lives once the truth comes out threatens to ruin the present.

Dear Debbie by Freida McFadden

For this review, we get into one of Freida’s newer book releases, Dear Debbie. While I usually enjoy Freida’s books a lot, this one fell flat for me in a few different ways. While it’s not one of my favourites by her, it was still an enjoyable mystery to follow, and she has some much better reads to check out in her catalogue.
