Recent Reads Vol. 4

It's been over two months since my last Recent Reads post, so this was overdue. I've read several books over the last two months and honestly loved every single one. I feel like I've really found my groove as far as reading goes. I know what I like and what I don't. Here are my top five that I would recommend:

The Grownup is a short story by Gillian Flynn, who is the author of other favorites like Gone Girl and Dark Places. I think it's only about 50 pages, so easy to breeze through in a day. It's the creepy and addicting Gillian we know and love. I devoured this story and would recommend! 

Summer secrets is the life story of a recovering alcoholic trying to make amends, so it can be a bit painful at times because you're wanting to scream at Cat and tell her to get her life together, but it will still keep you coming back. 

Why not me. I can't believe it's been so long since I last did one of these posts because I feel like I read this forever ago. Who doesn't love Mindy? She's so witty and such a talented writer. You'll love, I promise!

The Vacationers is a juicy story about family drama that takes place on the beautiful island of Mallorca. It will have you wanting to plan a trip to the beach ASAP. Therefore, I would definitely deem this the perfect beach read, it's nice and light, but highly entertaining!

Finding Audrey is by Sophie Kinsella who is one of my favorite authors. I know that I'll love every one of her books, but this one was exceptional. I'm not sure if it was pretty short (I read on a kindle, so it's hard to tell) or if I just whipped through it so fast because I loved it. It's the story of a young girl fighting her way through being a teenager and dealing with mental health issues. That may not sound appealing, but there's a love interest, and the way Sophie writes about anxiety is so spot on. 

What have you read lately that you would recommend? Would love to hear! Next up for me are Fates and Furies, Who do You Love, and Nightingale.
