Have you ever read a book that made you want to DNF because you felt as if it was talking about your life or current situation?

Ugh!

But... I must continue to see how God brings this FMC through. I guess this book from Goodwill was meant for me to read.

I love a book with mixed media. Every other chapter is a podcast transcript of the FMC interviewing people.

Don't make any assumptions, but just like this killer, I have a thing about numbers, too. Smh.

10 and 21 are my favorite numbers (because of my birthday), but every time I look at the clock, it's 10:21.

This killers memo was to kidnap his victims 3 days apart, keep them for 7 days, and whip them 21 times.

My first thought after reading that last part: 3+7=10... Whipped 21x's.... that's 10/21 yall

Let me stop!

Making it a habit to read some encouraging non-fiction on a monthly basis.

The FMC (Marjorie) may be a bit older than me, but in so many ways we're alike due to certain life circumstances. I love a book that makes you feel as if the author is talking about you through a fictional character. It just hits differently, and you both tend to learn lessons along the way.

I love a good Christian fiction involving people of color. I came across this book in a Goodwill. Funny enough, this author resides in my state (NC). I'm trying to find more local authors to read.

Every now and then, I think it's good to read a book that grounds you. A book that you could relate to. It just hits differently.

I love a good poetry book in between long books.

I had to tandem read this with the audiobook. The chapters are short, but WHY is this "thriller/crime" book 420 pages. That's a crime in itself.

I don't remember Piggy being this annoying. 🤷🏾‍♀️

Back to my thriller/mystery/suspense books. I'm not sure why JP needs to co-sign on these books, but whatever.

So far, I'm interested in the book. The only hiccup is that we (the readers) already know the identity of the killer couples, so how is this going to keep me interested?

Plus, the couples they're choosing are all swingers, apparently. 🙄
