And When She Was Good: A Novel
by Laura Lippman
Ripped from the Headlines (7/3/2012)
I found this book promising but slow paced. It jumped from one time in the story to another, which made it some what confusing. The story was a ripped from the headlines kind of story with a heroine who was not as smart as she thought.
Afterwards: A Novel
by Rosamund Lupton
Ghost thriller (4/25/2012)
