New 📖 Review: CARRIE SOTO IS BACK by @tjenkinsreid and as expected, I absolutely loved it! It’s a riveting comeback story, a poignant father & daughter story, a romance, and a fascinating exploration on female ambition. So so good and one of my favorites this year!

New 📚 Review: THE IT GIRL by #RuthWare Have yo

New 📚 Review: THE IT GIRL by #RuthWare

Have you guys read it? What did you think??

I’m such a big fan of Ruth’s books! They’re always so cleverly plotted with narratives and characters that really draw you in. Her latest—out now—takes places ten years after our main character, Hannah, finds her roommate murdered. After the man convicted dies in prison, Hannah begins to doubt what happened that night, and the role she played in sending a potentially innocent man to prison. She delves into the past as a result, to uncover the truth.

As always, I found the book immersive, a compulsively readable ‘whodunit’ thriller. But check out my full review {link in bio} to get the spoiler-free scoop on how it compared to other RW books 🖤

Recently read and loved TOMORROW, TOMORROW, AND TOMORROW by @gabriellezevin — Have you guys read this one????

My review is on the blog, but essentially, the novel is about three friends navigating life, love, and games. The story brims with nostalgia and vulnerability as Zevin explores the fragility, volatility, magic and euphoria of a creative partnership between two friends, two game designers, over the span of many years. It’s one of my favorite books this year!

Happy book birthday to #Upgrade and @blakecrouch1!

Happy book birthday to #Upgrade and @blakecrouch1! This book is one of the best I've read all year... I really, really loved it! 🧬

After a raid goes wrong, government agent & former molecular geneticist Logan Ramsey gets a major upgrade to his genome. His upgrade, however, unravels a plan to wreak havoc on humanity and he's the only one who can stop it.

Upgrade is an immersive thriller rife with high-octane action, ratcheting tension, vivid worldbuilding and riveting science. It’s clear the work was meticulously researched, making the premise equal parts fascinating and frightening. Crouch probes the moral complexity and perceived boundaries of ‘playing God’ while buoying the science-heavy narrative (which I love) with surprisingly emotive moments. More on the book #ontheblog ➡️ vilmairis.com/upgrade and make sure to check out this week's WEEKLY EDIT too, for more new releases!

Finally found this 8’ sorbus tree and I love it! I wanted something a little wispy and tall (made it a bit taller even with some books) and it fits the bill perfectly 🖤 {sharing it in my stories}

▪️THE HOUSE ACROSS THE LAKE is out today! ▪️With this latest, @riley.sager delivers a voyeuristic page-turner rife with fascinating characters, ratcheting suspense, and surprises aplenty.

I love how Sager once again took a familiar setup and made it his own. In this story, an actress heads to her family lake house after an alcoholic binge. Across the lake she spies on a former model and her techie husband, who aren’t the glamorous couple everyone expects. When the wife vanishes, the story spirals in ways unforeseen, culminating in a big-twist finale.

Sager expertly builds a sinister, paranoiac, almost suffocating atmosphere, which I loved, and which really enhanced the narrative. It’s truly perfect for devouring poolside! My spoiler-free review is on the blog this week! ➡️ vilmairis.com/the-house-across-the-lake

Thank you @duttonbooks for sending me this book! 🖤

Anyway, it’s a really good day 💜

Loving this book! An impressive debut with all the gothic, haunting vibes 🖤

Mexican Gothic meets Rebecca in this debut supernatural suspense novel, set in the aftermath of the Mexican War of Independence, about a remote house, a sinister haunting, and the woman pulled into their clutches...

During the overthrow of the Mexican government, Beatriz’s father was executed and her home destroyed. When handsome Don Rodolfo Solórzano proposes, Beatriz ignores the rumors surrounding his first wife’s sudden demise, choosing instead to seize the security that his estate in the countryside provides. She will have her own home again, no matter the cost.

But Hacienda San Isidro is not the sanctuary she imagined.

When Rodolfo returns to work in the capital, visions and voices invade Beatriz’s sleep. The weight of invisible eyes follows her every move. Rodolfo’s sister, Juana, scoffs at Beatriz’s fears—but why does she refuse to enter the house at night? Why does the cook burn copal incense at the edge of the kitchen and mark the doorway with strange symbols? What really happened to the first Doña Solórzano?

Beatriz only knows two things for certain: Something is wrong with the hacienda. And no one there will save her.

Desperate for help, she clings to the young priest, Padre Andrés, as an ally. No ordinary priest, Andrés will have to rely on his skills as a witch to fight off the malevolent presence haunting the hacienda and protect the woman for whom he feels a powerful, forbidden attraction. But even he might not be enough to battle the darkness.

Far from a refuge, San Isidro may be Beatriz’s doom.

My next read: SOMETHING WILDER by @christinalauren

My next read: SOMETHING WILDER by @christinalauren 📖 Finished and super loved BOOK LOVERS by @emilyhenrywrites and sitting here poolside on this ☀️ day, excited to jump into CLo’s latest, out May 17th. More 👇🏻

Growing up the daughter of notorious treasure hunter and absentee father Duke Wilder left Lily without much patience for the profession…or much money in the bank. But Lily is nothing if not resourceful, and now uses Duke’s coveted hand-drawn maps to guide tourists on fake treasure hunts through the red rock canyons of Utah. It pays the bills but doesn’t leave enough to fulfill her dream of buying back the beloved ranch her father sold years ago, and definitely not enough to deal with the sight of the man she once loved walking back into her life with a motley crew of friends ready to hit the trails. Frankly, Lily would like to take him out into the wilderness—and leave him there.

Leo Grady knew mirages were a thing in the desert, but they’d barely left civilization when the silhouette of his greatest regret comes into focus in the flickering light of the campfire. Ready to leave the past behind him, Leo wants nothing more than to reconnect with his first and only love. Unfortunately, Lily Wilder is all business, drawing a clear line in the sand: it’s never going to happen.

But when the trip goes horribly and hilariously wrong, the group wonders if maybe the legend of the hidden treasure wasn’t a gimmick after all. There’s a chance to right the wrongs—of Duke’s past and their own—but only if Leo and Lily can confront their history and work together. Alone under the stars in the isolated and dangerous mazes of the Canyonlands, Leo and Lily must decide whether they’ll risk their lives and hearts on the adventure of a lifetime.

My current read—BOOK LOVERS—has got me back in the reading mood! I had been so distracted 🤪 lately but this latest from Emily Henry is so so good (coming May 3) and will hopefully get me back on track with my TBR. Thinking of maybe starting NIGHTWORK by Nora Roberts next—her new romantic suspense coming May 24. Also counting the days to Holly Black’s BOOK OF NIGHT… one of my most anticipated of the year! 🖤 Tell me your reading 411 👇🏻
