And now on to today's question...
What are you currently reading?
I just started reading Pressure by Betsy Reavley. I got sent a copy of this book by the publisher via Net Galley. I'd seen it pop up a few times on other book bloggers TBR's and the reviews all seemed quite good. Plus I love psychological thrillers :)
About the book:
When the submarine departed, none of the ten people on board knew it would turn into a nightmare.
Trapped on the sunken vessel and unable to escape, one of them is discovered dead. The tension escalates as the survivors realise there is a murderer among them, who is preparing to strike again and again…
With mounting desperation, people begin to turn on each other. While they struggle to identify who is responsible, each must contend with their own past and the secrets they are hiding.
But who is who? And which of them will be next to die?
This is the cover as shown on Net Galley which I personally prefer to the alternative cover that is showing on Amazon:
I'm only at 16% but already liking it.
Now let's see what the rest of the gang are reading...
Kelli Quintos
I have only just started reading in these past few years and decided to dedicate this year to classics to try to play catch up to the more seasoned readers. I’m spending most of the year making my way through Harry Potter for the first time, but each month I try to have a side project. This month I’m going to read the Narnia series. I only thought it was a single book...no idea it was an entire series.
Brandy Potter
I am currently reading Phantom Evil by Heather Graham for like the hundredth time. Why? Because I read the new Krewe of Hunter’s series book Face to Black and I needed the original Krewe. Love Me some Jackson Crow/Angela Hawkins.
Leslie Conzatti
I used to be able to read more books in the course of a month, but that seems to have slackened in recent years! Currently, I have started to read two books at once: The Fix by David Baldacci (always a favorite!), and All The Crooked Saints by Maggie Stiefvater (because SHE WRITES MAGIC). In the realm of indie e-books, I’m finally getting around to reading Dreamtime Dragons, an anthology I actually participated in… but I never got to read all of the other submissions, so I very much want to do that!
Rachael Beardsley
I’m currently reading Sophie’s Choice by William Styron. My to-read list is full of all the well-known books I’ve never made it to, but I’ve been excited to read this one for a while. So far, it seems like a story that’s rich in plot with lively characters (almost too lively at times). It’s a long book, but I can’t wait to get deeper into it. Styron’s writing easily pulls me in.
Hannah Dadd
With YALC coming up (ahh!) I’m reading as many YALC author’s books as possible, hoping to read Things a Bright Girl Can Do and I’m about to start Children of Blood and Bone!
Casia Schreyer
I’m currently reading The Emotional Wound Thesaurus, part of the Writers’ Guide Thesauruses series by Angela Ackerman and Becca Puglist. Not exactly a fun read, but I’ve been wanting to explore ways to create deeper characters without relying on so many cliches. There are 6 books in the series exploring settings, emotions, positive and negative traits, emotion amplifiers, and emotional wounds.
Marcia Marques
I’m currently reading Sadie by Courtney Summers, which already is one of the most buzzed about YA thrillers from 2018 (the book will be published in Sept 2018). I actually met Courtney at the BookCon NYC and got a signed copy of the book. I can already see that I will be reading her other books as well...
