Small Town Stalker by Marion Meadows, Marion Meadows
i read it in an hour and a half and i didn’t like it but it ended on a cliff hanger and i found out this is a series so i feel like i’m forced to read the next one (and all the previous ones) 😀

I used to devour urban novels when i was in middle school and i used to always see this authors novels on the shelf but i never picked them up (the covers didn’t look diabolical enough to middle school me)
So i decided to give her a chance now, at my big age of 22 and honestly I don’t know what to say, so let me start off first by saying- I was throughly entertained. I almost had an aneurysm because of how incredibly stupid the main character was, the book operates under the assumption that all the characters are complete morons (which is not necessarily a negative although it sounds like i’m
saying it is)
I nearly pulled all my locs out of my head in frustration the ENTIRE time, the audiobook narrator was good though, but i just wanted to reach in the book and shake Raven.
Ethic was fine as heck and i will be reading his series next

a christian gang/mafia romance novel?? Sign me up???????????? I literally ate this book down, although it followed basically the same formula for a mafia/gang romance storyline, it was very easy to read, not too preachy (just enough) and just overall enjoyable, I will definitely be reading more of this author :)
The Godmother: Murder, Vengeance, and the Bloody Struggle of Mafia Women by Barbie Latza Nadeau

it was very interesting, but it also at times felt like the author was just telling me one horrific thing that happened to a woman after another, like trauma dumping 😭

i liked it! I listened to it on audio and the narrators was good! It went a little slow at first but then I realized that was on purpose. I’m definitely going to be reading the next book in the series straight after this

usually i have fun with this authors books but i didn’t have fun with this one. EXTREMELY predictable and the Main Character was insufferable, i wanted out of her head.
