🔥 BUDDY READ ANNOUNCEMENT! 🔥 I cannot believe it's almost March already! But as it is, that means it's time to announce the next month's read for #getthrilledbuddyreads -- THE FIREKEEPER'S DAUGHTER by @angelineboulley! @torrie_reads and I are really excited for this one - and as she said in her post, hopefully there are still some of you who are behind, like us, and haven't read it yet so want to join us 😂 Or if you have read it, feel free to come discuss it with us! This one is a YA mystery/thriller with an Ojibwe main character who goes undercover to confront some pretty dark issues in her community, in order to save it. I can't wait to finally meet Daunis!

✂️ BOOK REVIEW ✂️ This was our #getthrilledbuddyreads read for September, and boy was it ever perfect for the return-to-campus time! I absolutely loved this debut thriller from @ashleywinsteadbooks, and felt like I was back on the campus of Duke University the whole time I read (not that we ever had a murder, nor did I hang out with a bunch of possible murderers, but otherwise... 😂). This book is an excellent examination of privilege as well as sociopathy, and while some people in our group figured out the killer before the big reveal, I personally hadn't. We also had *the most excellent* discussion over Zoom with Ashley, who was kind enough to share a Friday evening with us! (Thanks to @torrie_reads, who had the guts to ask her 🙌🏼) Our discussion of the "unlikeable female character" still sticks with me; that whole idea has long been a burr for me, and it's exactly what Ashley was trying to examine with this book. Anyway, I LOVED THIS, and I highly recommend it to any thriller/mystery fan!! Also I CANNOT WAIT for Ashley's next book, which sounds amazing 😍 Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Side note: ICYMI, for our November GTBR we are doing THE LAST THING TO BURN by Will Dean! DM me or LMK below in comments if you want to join.) ✂️✂️✂️ #inmydreamsiholdaknife #ashleywinstead #getthrilled #thrillerbooks #thrillers #bookreviews #bookreviewer #bookreview #unlikeablefemaleprotagonists #unlikeablefemalecharacters #unlikeablewomen #5stars #5starread #5starreview #BookKeepingBlog #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #bookstagrammers #bookstagramcommunity #booksofinstagram #booksbooksbooks #booknerd #booknerds https://www.instagram.com/p/CV3Jf9xLOMB/?utm_medium=tumblr

🩸 BUDDY READ ANNOUNCEMENT! 🩸 It's hard to believe, but January is actually almost over...so it's time to announce next month's #getthrilledbuddyreads pick! @torriereadsalot and I are so excited to be doing THE WEIGHT OF BLOOD by @writeinbk 🎉 Torrie has read it and loved it, and I can't wait to dive in! If you'd like to join us, just comment below (or DM me) and we'll add you to the chat when we set it up. We can't wait to #getthrilled with y'all! SYNOPSIS: New York Times bestselling author Tiffany D. Jackson ramps up the horror and tackles America’s history and legacy of racism in this suspenseful YA novel following a biracial teenager as her Georgia high school hosts its first integrated prom. When Springville residents—at least the ones still alive—are questioned about what happened on prom night, they all have the same explanation . . . Maddy did it. An outcast at her small-town Georgia high school, Madison Washington has always been a teasing target for bullies. And she's dealt with it because she has more pressing problems to manage. Until the morning a surprise rainstorm reveals her most closely kept secret: Maddy is biracial. She has been passing for white her entire life at the behest of her fanatical white father, Thomas Washington. After a viral bullying video pulls back the curtain on Springville High's racist roots, student leaders come up with a plan to change their image: host the school's first integrated prom as a show of unity. The popular white class president convinces her Black superstar quarterback boyfriend to ask Maddy to be his date, leaving Maddy wondering if it's possible to have a normal life. But some of her classmates aren't done with her just yet. And what they don't know is that Maddy still has another secret . . . one that will cost them all their lives. 🩸🩸🩸 #buddyreads #buddyreading #buddyread #theweightofblood #tiffanydjackson #tiffanydjacksonnovels #tiffanydjacksonauthor #tiffanydjacksonbooks #thrillerbooks #februarybuddyread #yaliteraturejunkie #yaliterature #yalovin #yalit #yalove #blackauthors #blackwomenoncover #blackwomenoncovers #blackwomenwriters #blackwomenwrite #amreading #bookstagrambuddyreads https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn4yFWcL7A0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

👯‍♀️📖 BUDDY READ ANNOUNCEMENT! 📖👯‍♀️ I can't believe it, but 2022 is almost over, and it's time to announce our #getthrilledbuddyreads book for Jan 2023! Next month we'll be reading THE GIRLS ARE ALL SO NICE HERE by @laurieelizabethflynn! I love Laurie's books, and Torrie (@torrie_reads) and I are excited to read and discuss this one with everyone. If you would like to join us, just comment below and we'll add you to the chat when we set it up. We can't wait to get thrilled with y'all! SYNOPSIS: A lot has changed in the years since Ambrosia Wellington graduated from college, and she's worked hard to create a new life for herself. But then an invitation to her ten-year reunion arrives in the mail, along with an anonymous note that reads "We need to talk about what we did that night." It seems that the secrets of Ambrosia's past--and the people she thought she'd left there--aren't as buried as she'd believed. Amb can't stop fixating on what she did or who she did it with: larger-than-life Sloane "Sully" Sullivan, Amb's former best friend, who could make anyone do anything. At the reunion, Amb and Sully receive increasingly menacing messages, and it becomes clear that they're being pursued by someone who wants more than just the truth of what happened that first semester. This person wants revenge for what they did and the damage they caused--the extent of which Amb is only now fully understanding. And it was all because of the game they played to get a boy who belonged to someone else, and the girl who paid the price. Alternating between the reunion and Amb's freshman year, THE GIRLS ARE ALL SO NICE HERE is a shocking novel about the brutal lengths girls can go to get what they think they're owed, and what happens when the games we play in college become matters of life and death. 👯‍♀️📖 👯‍♀️📖 👯‍♀️📖 #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookstagrammers #booknerd #getthrilled #thrillers #thrillerbooks #thrillingreads #amreading #laurieelizabethflynn #thegirlsareallsonicehere #bookworm #readersofinstagram #readersofig #reading #readers #booksbooksbooks #bibliophile #bookrecommendations #buddyreads #buddyread #januarybuddyread #bookclub #readwithus https://www.instagram.com/p/Cmot-bMLsmc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🤥 THE LYING GAME 🤥 Confession time: despite the fact that I love thrillers and grew up reading Stephen King, Deann Koontz, and very early Karen Slaughter, I have yet to read anything by Ruth Ware! So when I was at CVS yesterday and *just happened* to peek at the book section, I deliberated between snagging this one or THE TURN OF THE KEY, and ultimately settled on THE LYING GAME. I'm in the middle of like three other books, but my #moodreader heart just wants to dive in to this!! ❓ If you've read this, what did you think? Or if not, is there another by Ruth Ware you'd recommend? 🔖 The adorable bookmark is from @goodvibesgoodbooks! 🤥 🤥 🤥 #readerconfessions #readerconfession #ruthware #ruthwarewriter #ruthwarebooks #ruthwareauthor #thelyinggame #thelyinggameruthware #thrillerbooks #thriller #thrillers #thrillingreads #thrillertuesday #thrillerfriendsunite #getthrilled #mysterybooks #mysterythrillerbooks #mysterythrillersuspense #booksofinstagram #bookstagrammers #Bookstagrammer #bookstagram #bookstagramit #booksofig #booknerd #booknerds #booksleeves #bookmarksofinstagram #BookKeepingBlog https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch5Bs1-L2QB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

♀️ BUDDY READ MINI REVIEW ♀️ Have you read PLAIN BAD HEROINES by @emdanforth yet? This was our pick for #getthrilledbuddyreads in June, and I don't even know how to describe it, but I loved it! It's a story within a story, and there's another story tucked into the first one. I marked this book up like crazy (you can swipe to see all my flags), and we had a lot to discuss in our group chat! In our discussion, I think we all agreed we liked the historical chapters best, but the modern day protagonists were also great. There's a lot about the "unlikeable female character" in here -- one is described as "prickly," and it fits her perfectly -- which is one of my favorite themes in fiction. It's a fiercely feminist tale, queer AF, and told in an engaging style where the narrator is sort of winking at you in footnotes. (Side note: I am a sucker for footnotes in a book, and think more authors should do this! 😁) Also, I was amazed at the end to discover the "subversive" book that's referenced throughout the novel is actually real, and now I am dedicated to finding and reading it 😍 If you like long, sprawling tales with many characters that you can get lost in, I'd recommend this one! RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ♀️ ♀️ ♀️ #plainbadheroines #plainbadheroinessociety #plainbadheroinesbook #emilymdanforth #emilymdanforthplainbadheroines #emdanforth #buddyreads #buddyread #getthrilled #BookKeepingBlog #booksbooksbooks #bookstagrammers #bookstagram #booktography #booknerd #booknerds #bibliophile #bookstagrammer #bookstagramcommunity #feminist #storywithinastory #marymaclane https://www.instagram.com/p/CgueU-_LMC5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Can we talk about my love and adoration for @ashleywinsteadbooks a minute?? I swear everything she writes is absolute perfection. First we read IN MY DREAMS I HOLD A KNIFE last fall for #getthrilledbuddyreads, which was perfection. Then when I saw she had a romance coming out I will readily admit I was a little skeptical, because how hard must it be to go from a twisty, dark thriller to a rom-com?? But I never should've doubted her (I'm sorry Ashley!) -- because FOOL ME ONCE?! It's 💫perfection💫! The chemistry, the sexual tension, the steaminess, the banter -- all those normal rom-com bits are great. But then you add in the political setting (I'm a politics junkie) and the fact that our heroine, just like in IMDIHAK, is what folks often disparagingly call an "unlikeable female character" but which I affectionately call "f*cking reality because women, like all humans, are flawed" -- these things just lift it to the level of an *incredible* book for me. In case it's not clear, I HIGHLY recommend this book, as well as IMDIHAK -- AND I'm so excited that Ashley's third release, THE LAST HOUSEWIFE (out in August!), will be our September buddy read 👏🏼 And thus ends my love letter to Ashley Winstead 😂 RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ #ashleywinsteadauthor #ashleywinsteadbooks #ashleywinstead #inmydreamsiholdaknife #foolmeonce #romcombooks #romcom #romances #romancebooks #steamyromance #steamybooks #steamybookrecs #romanticcomedy #politics #amreading #amreadingromance #getthrilled #thelasthousewife #buddyreads #buddyread #bookstagram #ncbookstagrammer #ncbooklovers #bookstagrammer #bookreview #bookrecommendations #bookreviewers #BookKeepingBlog https://www.instagram.com/p/CeokrRyr8_q/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🔖 MINI BOOK REVIEW 🔖 I love dark academia, so I was excited that we chose HOW WE FALL APART by @ktzhaoauthor for our May book for #getthrilledbuddyreads. I really enjoyed it! The thing I liked bestw as the Asian cast and the focus on the experiences of immigrants and their children in America. I think especially for the kids, it must be so hard to have that push and pull between your parents' culture and traditions and rules vs the "American" way of life. I really liked how Katie focused on that while also telling a great story. The plot itself has a Pretty Little Liars type vibe, which is always a good time 😁 If you enjoy twisty YA mysteries, check it out! RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Featuring Dark Academia 🕯️ from @timelessprintsca!) 🔖 🔖 🔖 #howwefallapart #katiezhao #katiezhaoauthor #aapiauthor #aapiheritagemonth #aapiauthors #aapiwomenstrong #yaliteraturejunkie #yaliterature #yalit #yamystery #yathrillers #yathriller #yathrillerbooks #getthrilled #thrillerbooks #thrillers #thrillingreads #bookreview #bookreviews #bookreviewer #bookreviewersofinstagram #bookreviewblogger #BookKeepingBlog #buddyreads #buddyread #minibookreview https://www.instagram.com/p/CeWfniPreGH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We're having a big thunderstorm right now, which I love, and which is perfect for reading a spooky book -- especially one set in rain-soaked Oregon! Have you read ⛈️ THE BOOK OF COLD CASES ⛈️ by @simonestjames? If so, what did you think? (But no spoilers, please!) If you've read it and want to be added to the chat group for this weekend's #getthrilledbuddyreads discussion, LMK! I'm looking forward to chatting about this one with everybody -- I'm about 1/4 in and very intrigued to see where it goes. I might have gotten a wee bit spooked reading in the pitch dark after midnight last night, when I was the only one awake 😳 Hope everyone has a wonderful afternoon/evening! ⛈️ ⛈️ ⛈️ #getthrilled #thebookofcoldcases #simonestjames #simonestjamesbooks #simonestjamesauthor #spookyreads #spookybooks #thrillerbooks #thrillingreads #crimethriller #crimethrillerbooks #creepybook #creepybooks #creepyreads #buddyreads #buddyread https://www.instagram.com/p/Cc066i6vmIF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🎉 BUDDY READ ANNOUNCEMENT! 🎉 HELLOOOOOOO, friends! I'm back!! More on that in a second*, but first let me tell you what @torrie_reads and I have planned for our February #getthrilledbuddyreads! We're excited to read and discuss HER NAME IS KNIGHT by Yasmin Angoe! This thriller has a 4.5 star rating on over 7k reviews 👏🏼 And perhaps best if all, this book is available to read for free on Kindle Unlimited, and you can also get it in paperback even though it just recently released. I was generously sent a copy from @mbc_books and I've been looking forward to this month since we decided in this book! Comment below if you'd like to join us, and we'll add you to the chat group when we set it up! (Also, I promise to actually be around for this one, unlike our Dec book...once again, I am so thankful for Torrie 💙) *Okay, so I've been on an unplanned, extended hiatus from Instagram, and holy cow I didn't expect it to be so long! Took a little time off for the holidays as my MIL was visiting, then I've been plagued with multiple migraines and a nasty sinus infection (amazingly, *not* covid!). Anyway, if you've commented or DMed me, that's why I haven't responded. One of my chat groups has over 1,000 messages that I've missed 😬 haha...so I'll be (slowly) going back through what I can to catch up. I've missed y'all!! #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookstagrammers #booknerd #getthrilled #thrillers #thrillerbooks #thrillingreads #amreading #yasminangoe #hernameisknight #bookworm #readersofinstagram #readersofig #reading #reader #readers #booksbooksbooks #bibliophile #bookrecommendations #buddyreads #buddyread #februarybuddyread #bookclub #readwithus https://www.instagram.com/p/CZIMLKVrTAk/?utm_medium=tumblr

😈 BUDDY READ ANNOUNCEMENT! 😈 I'm SO late in posting this, sorry @torrie_reads! Is life nuts for everyone right now, or is it just me?! Anyway...Torrie and I are thrilled to announced that our January pick for #getthrilledbuddyreads is THE MARY SHELLEY CLUB by @goldywrites!! I am so freaking excited for this one 😍 This is a YA dark academia thriller, and we can't wait to read it with y'all! If you'd like to join us, just comment below and we'll add you to the chat group when we set it up. As usual, we'll be discussing at the end of the month. Goodreads synopsis: "New girl Rachel Chavez is eager to make a fresh start at Manchester Prep. But as one of the few scholarship kids, Rachel struggles to fit in, and when she gets caught up in a prank gone awry, she ends up with more enemies than friends. "To her surprise, however, the prank attracts the attention of the Mary Shelley Club, a secret club of students with one objective: come up with the scariest prank to orchestrate real fear. But as the pranks escalate, the competition turns cutthroat and takes on a life of its own. "When the tables are turned and someone targets the club itself, Rachel must track down the real-life monster in their midst . . . even if it means finally confronting the dark secrets from her past." Can't wait to read and discuss with y'all! ����😈😈 #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookstagrammers #booknerd #getthrilled #thrillers #thrillerbooks #thrillingreads #amreading #goldymoldavsky #themaryshelleyclub #bookworm #readersofinstagram #readersofig #reading #reader #readers #booksbooksbooks #bibliophile #bookrecommendations #buddyreads #buddyread #januarybuddyread #bookclub #readwithus #ncbookstagrammer #BookKeepingBlog #darkacademiabooks #darkacademia https://www.instagram.com/p/CXy2mhfLsJQ/?utm_medium=tumblr
