ARC Review: The Carpool Detectives

 I received an ARC of this book from the publisher and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. This did not affect my opinion of the book or my review itself.

This is an absolutely fascinating true crime book. A group of moms came together during the pandemic, linked together by a common cause-a cold case over a decade old. They weee determined to solve the case, unknowingly putting themselves in danger along the way, but never giving up.

This true story is a very unique one. I had never heard of the cold case, but it was a particularly twisty one with lots of surprises. These moms are amazing, continuing to live their lives full of responsibilities while still putting their absolute all into finding justice for two people gone too soon. I would recommend this book. 

ARC Review: A Particularly Nasty Case

 I received a copy of this book from Novel Suspects and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. This did not affect my opinion of the book or my review itself. 

Eitan Rose, a doctor struggling with his own mental health plus a troubled past, is convinced the medical director did not die of natural causes. He launches his own investigation, which only seems to land him in more trouble. At least he’s got his new relationship with Cole, a porter at the hospital, to keep his spirits up as he continues his search for the truth. 

I wanted to love this book, but for some reason, I just didn’t. I didn’t dislike it, I liked it fine, but I had trouble getting into it. I was actually reluctant to write this review because I really can’t put my finger on what kept me from really enjoying this story. Even though I called the twist, I did really enjoy the way it played out. I would give this book three stars.
