OMG!
Reviewed: 05-13-24
OMG! There is so much to say about this book! This is the first time I've read anything by this Author and I can say I will read more of her books! I've already looked to see what else she has written and what I will read next!
I don't usually like to write anything that will give spoilers, but I can't help it! I don't know if this will give anything away, but here goes..
I am an avid reader and a lot of times I figure things out before the ending of the book. Most of the time I do, it's a game with me!
I thought I had this figured out like the 3rd chapter in as to who was the "monster', but in the end, I was wrong and I literally "gasped" out loud when the first "twist" came about and then all the other twists !
Oh , it had me to the very end and then I wanted more!
I will say, I never quite figured out the "monster hunter", but that's okay in my book, because everything else was AMAZING!
Yes, I would recommend this to EVERYONE!

One conversation is all it takes to break a world wide open. Seventeen-year-old Macy Lyons has been through something no one should ever have to experience. And she's dealt with it entirely alone. On the outside, she's got it pretty good. Her family's well off, she's dating the cute boy next door, she has plenty of friends, and although she long ago wrote her mother off as a superficial gym rat, she's thankful to have allies in her loving, laid-back dad and her younger brother.

This was a really good book. The description caught my attention. There was a bit of the story that I couldn't understand. For example, why would a 30 year old woman act as if she had no common sense. The daughter's whole demeanor was off, but the story was good. I would recommend it.

Jane’s days at a Midwest insurance company are perfectly ordinary. She blends in well, unremarkably pretty in her floral-print dresses and extra efficient at her low-level job. She’s just the kind of woman middle manager Steven Hepsworth likes - meek, insecure, and willing to defer to a man. No one has any idea who Jane really is. Least of all Steven. But plain Jane is hiding something. And Steven’s bringing out the worst in her.

When I first set eyes on Westhill House with its breathtaking views of the sea, I knew Jack and I could make this our forever home. It may be falling apart with an overgrown garden, but we can repair this beautiful building and perhaps our relationship, too. But the more time I spend renovating our new house, the more time Jack is spending at work. At least Lori's here to keep me company. She has her own troubles, yet she always listens to mine. She’s helping to restore the house, uncovering its secrets one by one. Lori seems to know a lot about Westhill House. The question is, why?

I just finished listening to this book and I'm on the fence.
I still really don't know why the main characters did what they did.
It wasn't bad, but I think I'm a bit disappointed.

Lutishia Lovely writes tales of church life that are positively scandalous - in all the right ways. Side-splittingly funny, bawdy, and chock-full of oh-no- you-did-not moments, A Preacher's Passion stars Passion Perkins, who despite her name hasn't had a man in her inner sanctum for five long years. But things are about to change.
