Everything fell apart after the midpoint. The clues, perspective changes, and stylized writing made for a strong setup, but the characters couldn't carry the weight. They read as flat and predictable. Ultimately, the ending wrote a check the story couldn't cash.

⭐⭐⭐.75

Totally! I thought everything was engaging up until the reveal. It lost me! The red herrings were less of a payoff and more like a rip off. It wasn't for me. But I'm also not as versed in the mystery genre, so what do I know?? Haha!

I'm halfway through reading ANATOMY OF AN ALIBI and I've got so many questions with no answers in sight! I'm new to thrillers so I'm trying to practice patience but... I WANNA KNOW!! 😀

Ooh I definitely need to read it if it was good. I'm not super impressed so far but hoping the end pays off!

I started reading ANATOMY OF AN ALIBI.

Camille's suspicious of her husband Ben. Aubrey believes Ben was involved in a tragedy that ruined her life. They swap places to spy on him, only to find him dead. Both women need an airtight alibi, but only one of them has it.

I'm changing things up this month! Alongside monthly picks, I'll share what #books I'm starting with a brief hook. When I finish, you'll get my honest review.

I've read A LOT & want to actually talk about it!

One year ago I started this to connect with other avid readers. I didn't expect it to grow into what it is today. I've read more this past year than I have in a long time, and that's because of you.

Thank you, from the bottom of my TBR list!

The fact that the US pays for Israel's healthcare, AIPAC spends ~$100 million dollars to fund pro-Israel political candidates, and now we're starting wars with them? It's beyond me.

The first book I call McDonald's reading. It's not good, but I had a good time. The ones after were hot garbage.

VIGIL explores whether mulish greed deserves comfort in the end. Its attempts at humor nearly lost me, but I was won over by the fiercely human evaluation of life in the face of death. It was tender, sad, and anti late stage capitalism. Always a plus!

As a kid, if I got cold, buttered toast on a Valentine's card I'd be ecstatic. Hell, if that happened now, I'd be tickled! These Valentine's cards are the next best thing!

SLEWFOOT is dark & captivating. Dread of the unknown shifted to the horror of human nature when monsters were made from ideals. Abitha's strong will & tenacity was easy to cheer on in a community of hypocrisy. Crisp writing & high stakes made a satisfying ending.

I use Libby! Read it on there. I also learned that using Libby on Kindle doesn't fund Amazon. So you can read library books for free still. Just don't click on any of their ads!
