What We Finished
Three Days Missing by Kimberly Belle
Norma and I read Three Days Missing with four of our Traveling Sisters and we all ended up in the same coulee with our thoughts on this one.
WHAT WE THOUGHT:
We all enjoyed this lighter story, yet unsettling story of a missing child who goes missing while at a school camp. We found it had just the right amount of tension and darkness to move the story forward but still keep it on the lighter side.
WHO WE RECOMMEND TO:
We recommend Three Days Missing to anyone looking for an easy fast-paced lighter thriller with just enough dark to leave you feeling a little chilled but not disturbed after finishing.
Brenda, Lindsay and Mary Beth’s review
Sold on a Monday by Kristina McMorris
Norma and I read Sold on Monday with six of our Traveling Sisters. We all started off intrigued by what we thought was the premise of the story that was inspired by an actual newspaper photograph, however, it is not the story that was told here.
WHAT WE THOUGHT:
We all ended a bit disappointed with this story as we really wanted the story to be more about the actual newspaper photograph. The story became more about the characters and their search for answers. Maybe if we had been aware of that we would not have been so disappointed.
WHO WE RECOMMEND TO:
We recommend to readers looking for a lighter story with some drama to take away from some of the dark to the story.
Norma, Lindsay and I will be posting our reviews closer to publication date August 28, 2018.
For now, you can find our Traveling Sister’s reviews here on Goodreads.
Angela, Debra, Diane, Marialyce
I read The Disappearing with six of my Traveling Sisters and ended up on different sides of the Coulee with this one.
WHAT WE THOUGHT:
We really enjoyed the atmosphere with this one and it really made the story for us, however, there was a lot going on with this story that weighted down the story for us.
WHO WE RECOMMEND TO:
I recommend to readers who enjoy a gothic atmospheric read with a small town mystery.
For reviews from my Traveling Sisters, you can find links to their blogs on the bottom of my review.
The Lost for Words Bookshop by Stephanie Butland
Norma read The Lost for Words Bookshop with Kris and both had similar thoughts on the story.
WHAT WE THOUGHT:
We both really enjoyed this wonderfully charming, light, moving, and endearing tale that is set in the greatest place ever, a bookshop.
WHO WE RECOMMEND TO:
We recommend The Lost for Words Bookshop to all of you book lovers out there or to anyone who loves an endearing main character.
