We’re back for more.
As stated in last week’s post, I’ve been thoroughly desensitized to the murder content I’m consuming. But I get asked a lot about the books that keep you guessing, you can’t put down, AND won’t leave you checking the undercarriage of your car when you get home at night.

1. The Unmaking of June Farrow
The Unmaking of June Farrow is a magical mystery with a side of romance and a dash of time travel—think Practical Magic meets The Time Traveler’s Wife.
Every woman in June Farrow's family has been cursed, and now that her grandmother has passed, the visions and eerie whispers June has spent years ignoring are taking center stage. One day a mysterious door appears and all hell breaks loose, offering answers about her family’s past, her future, and a mystery man. The writing in this book is so lush, I loved it. There's small-town charm, a twisty plot, and a story that really just sweeps you away!
