Books I'm Dying to Read

 

Hey, happy Thursday!

 

I usually post on Wednesdays but my goodness, this has been a week. I called into sick from work today after passing a kidney stone last night. I’ve been to the doctor’s and I’m just taking it easy but I thought I would share what I’m currently reading and the books I want to read.

I’m also trying to brainstorm some ideas for blog posts for the future. I’m always down for recommendations in the comments!

Currently, I’m reading A Serial Killer’s Daughter. I was genuinely a little skeptical because of some of the reviews on Amazon. However, it’s actually really interesting. It’s an autobiography by BTK’s daughter, Kerri Rawson, and her POV from being raised by a man who killed so many women.

I really am intrigued by Every Note Played by Lisa Genova. I’ve loved Lisa Genova since she wrote Still Alice. This book is about a concert pianist who develops ALS. It’s written in a similar style of Still Alice with the progression. It looks absolutely phenomenal!

I actually hadn’t heard of this book until Kristen mentioned it but it looks good – Next Year in Havana by Chanel Cleeton. The sequel actually comes out next month. It’s about a Cuban-American woman who travels to Havana, Cuba to discover the roots of her identity.

This was Reese Witherspoon’s Book Club x Hello Sunshine book pick for March, Daisy Jones & The Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid. It’s about the whirlwind rise of a world-famous 1970’s rock band – their beautiful lead singer and the reasons for their breakup.

I grew up reading Confessions of a Shopaholic so I Owe You One by Sophie Kinsella has me intrigued. It’s described as an irresistible story of love and empowerment about a young woman with a complicated family, a handsome man who might be “the one,” and an IOU that changes everything.

I always try to branch out from thriller novels, but something about The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides has me intrigued. It’s about a woman murdering her husband and a therapist who becomes obsessed with finding out her motive.
