The Unknown
Not one of my favorites by Riley but it was still good. I enjoyed the basis, but some parts just felt like they were dragging. The twist was one I didn’t see coming.

Witchcraft for Wayward Girls
This one was hard for me to stick out. It was so slow-paced. Some of the twists were entertaining but it just wasn’t for me.

Bourbon and Lies
I enjoyed the setting and learning a bit about the bourbon-making process. The plot was just ok. I was hoping for more of a thriller-romance but the author didn’t entertain the thrilling side as I had hoped.

Play Nice
I had high hopes for this being considered horror and a creepy house vibe. The plot didn’t keep my interest or give me a scare. However, this was my first book by this author and I did enjoy her sense of humor. I will be giving her another go and hope I will like the next more!

You Shouldn\’t Have Come Here
More like you shouldn’t have wasted time reading this book…LOL. I only finished this because I’m stubborn. The characters were very tacky. One of them was interesting toward the end, but it wasn’t enough to redeem the book.

Bourbon and Lies
Loved the setting and incorporation of a distillery. I enjoyed learning a few facts about bourbon-making in the midst of a romance book. The storyline was meh. I wanted there to be more of a thrilling element, but the author didn’t go the route I hoped. I want to give the next book in the series a chance though!

Pretty Dead Things
Painful to get through. Could’ve been a good story but it drug on. The last 30 pages or so were interesting. I will not be recommending it.

The last time I lied
I had high expectations and they were met. I loved reading this summer camp theme at the end of summer. Kept me guessing and such an interesting combo of details: painter, camp, old money, asylum… Riley does it again & I can’t wait to read more of his.

Four
I enjoyed some of the backstory of Tobias/Four but somewhat think these could have been added as bonus chapters to the individual stories instead of separate short stories.

Allegiant
I read this book initially like 10+ years ago. And I\’m not sure what was happening in my life at that point, pregnancy brain maybe? But re-reading this was like reading it for the first time. I forgot everything that happened in this book. Maybe denial? People died that I thought lived and this was a true out of body reading experience for me. Still loved it and makes me look forward to the new books she is releasing soon!!

Queen of Shadows
Getting to reread this book was a blessing. SJM is one of the most talented writers in my lifetime honestly. Some of the big parts hit bigger on a reread! Not giving anything away in my review… but AHHHHH so good.

Carl’s Doomsday Scenario
Well…I would kill for Princess Donut at this point. I love her so much. She\’s one of the funniest characters I\’ve ever read about and cannot wait to keep reading this series.
