I loved his debut The Silent Patient but didn’t try this one, glad to hear it was a winner for you!

That's what I've been hearing from other people! I have that one ready to read for the new year, so I can read his new one called The Fury coming out in January

thanks Tara! I love seeing your choices, I might give Fourth Wing a try next year. And yes I brought Indiscretion to our summer beach reads episode - ep 104- it's so good, I have a feeling you'd like it

Renee, this is such a fun list! Did you bring Indiscretion to the podcast?! I swear this is the first I’m hearing of it, but I’m adding it to my list!

Book I never intended to read, but loved: Fourth Wing

Author I can’t stop talking about: Nathan Hill

Book I would give to everyone: The Frozen River

Audiobook narration: Michelle Williams in Britney Spears’s The Woman In Me

Strange Sally is definitely my most memorable character, too!
