My Sister, The Serial Killer
By Oyinkan Braithwaite
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

When Korede's dinner is interrupted one night by a distress call from her sister, Ayoola, she knows what's expected of her: bleach, rubber gloves, nerves of steel and a strong stomach. This'll be the third boyfriend Ayoola's dispatched in, quote, self-defence and the third mess that her lethal little sibling has left Korede to clear away. She should probably go to the police for the good of the menfolk of Nigeria, but she loves her sister and, as they say, family always comes first. Until, that is, Ayoola starts dating the doctor where Korede works as a nurse. Korede's long been in love with him, and isn't prepared to see him wind up with a knife in his back: but to save one would mean sacrificing the other...



This was so good I don’t know why it took so long life just gets in the way! Makes you think how far would you go to help a sibling? Would you dispose of their victims? Gets you thinking do you love them enough?

I liked this book, but there were aspects that were annoying. Wren was kind of awful to her sister, Cath. I was a total fan of fan fiction when I was in college, so I could relate to that aspect. I definitely wouldn't read it again, but it was my introduction to Rainbow Rowell.

If I could reread the labryinth this would be it. A retelling that isn't a retelling. The characters are all hinting at a connection but still strong on their own. The fight for her sister while fighting both herself and the goblin king draw you in. A tragic love story you just can't put down.

Nick Barrett investigates the reappearance of a painting for a couple of friends. The trail leads him to a poor orphan, her half sister, and a dangerous cult. Very entertaining with a powerful ending.

Diamonds are a girl’s best friends’ best friend. Ocean’s 8 (2018) #Review
Sisters are doing it for themselves, specifically Danny Ocean’s sister Debbie (Sandra Bullock), in this affably slick but lightweight heist thriller, the fourth in the modern ‘Ocean’ series and the first not to be directed by Steven Soderbergh...

I just finished the Weekend Warriors by Fern Michael's. This was first of the sister hood series. The book was great, my husband listened to it with me. He also enjoyed the book. I went and got the second book "Payback" and the third book "Vendetta" I hope these are as good as the first.
