Sundays in Bed With… is a meme that dares to ask you what book has been in your bed this morning and is hosted by Midnight Book Girl. Come share what book you’ve spent time curled up reading in bed with, or which book you wish you had time to read today!
Hello, reader!
I hope everyone is having a nice Sunday. It’s my last day of my long weekend and I’m using it to be as much of a slacker as possible 😂 I’ve been hanging out downstairs, watching my daughter play Red Dead Redemption 2, and poking around on the internet. I’ve also been washing my hair which, as a Black woman, is a Whole Thing. Whilst getting my curls in check, I decided to pick up my first audiobook of the month.
So now let me tell you more about it!
My Sunday Read Is…
Stillhouse Lake by Rachel Caine
I’ve wanted to start this thriller series by Rachel Caine for some time now. I love one of her fantasy series, The Great Library, and I’ve always been curious whether or not I would like her other work. Seeming as thrillers are probably my second favorite genre, this seemed like a good choice! I found the audiobook on Scribd and now I’m digging in. This story focuses around a woman who discovers that her husband was a serial killer. Four years later, she and her kids have new names and are trying to build a new life. So far, it’s been intense and I’m really enjoying it!
Goodreads Synopsis
Gina Royal is the definition of average—a shy Midwestern housewife with a happy marriage and two adorable children. But when a car accident reveals her husband’s secret life as a serial killer, she must remake herself as Gwen Proctor—the ultimate warrior mom.
With her ex now in prison, Gwen has finally found refuge in a new home on remote Stillhouse Lake. Though still the target of stalkers and Internet trolls who think she had something to do with her husband’s crimes, Gwen dares to think her kids can finally grow up in peace.
But just when she’s starting to feel at ease in her new identity, a body turns up in the lake—and threatening letters start arriving from an all-too-familiar address. Gwen Proctor must keep friends close and enemies at bay to avoid being exposed—or watch her kids fall victim to a killer who takes pleasure in tormenting her. One thing is certain: she’s learned how to fight evil. And she’ll never stop.
