Olive is very close to her best friends, but when they start to marry and have kids, she feels less connected to them. What’s more, she’s decided she has no desire to have children of her own one day. She’s absolutely sure of it. Fast paced and moving, I would recommend Gannon’s debut novel to all my friends.

Ever since listening to James Franco narrate The Dead Zone by Stephen King, I have been more interested in audiobooks lately. I love going for walks and listening to them at the same time. Tom Hanks narrated The Dutch House and it was excellent. It was my first experience with an Ann Patchett book and I very much enjoyed the story. Narrated by one of the main character, Danny, we are taken through his life living at the Dutch House with his father and sister Maeve as well as life after he gets married and has his own children. A family saga filled with secrets and intrigue, The Dutch House is not to be missed!

I listened to the audiobook version of this book and absolutely loved it! Johnny Smith had a hockey accident on the ice as a child, and then a car accident as an adult which left him in a coma for almost 5 years. His life not only drastically changed after he woke up from the coma, but he was given a special ability to see things both past and future just by touching people. Now he is on a case helping out the local sheriff, and a hometown hero.

Mitchell’s Inn in upstate New York seems like the perfect winter getaway. It has everything you’d want – it’s cozy and remote – then all hell breaks loose when the power goes out and someone turns up dead. The hotel guests are shocked, but not as shocked as when more bodies start turning up. Lapena’s modern day take on Agatha Christie’s Murder on the Orient Express, you’ll be guessing until the end!

My Dark Vanessa by Kate Elizabeth Russell is a stunning debut. Switching back and forth between 2000, when Vanessa is 15 years old, and 2017, when Vanessa is 32, the novel chronicles a teen’s illicit relationship with her teacher and the aftermath that follows years later. Vanessa thought she would have to take it to her grave, but now she has a chance 17 years later. Does she remain silent, or speak up?
