Today I’m participating in WWW Wednesdays, at Taking on a World of Words. Here’s how it works:
The Three Ws are:
What are you currently reading?
What did you recently finish reading?
What do you think you’ll read next, and/or what are you eagerly awaiting?

CURRENTLY READING:
Something She’s Not Telling Us, by Darcey Bell
Named most anticipated book of 2020 by Cosmopolitan, Women’s Wear Daily, Woman’s Day, She Reads, The Nerd Daily, and Sassy Sarah Reads.
From the New York Times bestselling author of A Simple Favor comes an electrifying domestic thriller of how one woman’s life is turned upside down when her brother brings his new girlfriend to visit—and no one is telling the truth about who they really are.
She’s on the verge of having it all…
But one woman stands in her way.

EAGERLY ANTICIPATING:
Confessions on the 7:45, by Lisa Unger, is a book coming on October 6, 2020…from a much-loved author. Of course I have pre-ordered it.
Synopsis: Be careful to whom you tell your darkest secrets…
Selena Murphy is commuting home from her job in the city when the train stalls out on the tracks. She strikes up a conversation with a beautiful stranger in the next seat, and their connection is fast and easy. The woman introduces herself as Martha and confesses that she’s been stuck in an affair with her boss. Selena, in turn, confesses that she suspects her husband is sleeping with the nanny. When the train arrives at Selena’s station, the two women part ways, presumably never to meet again.
But days later, Selena’s nanny disappears.
Soon Selena finds her once-perfect life upended. As she is pulled into the mystery of the missing nanny, and as the fractures in her marriage grow deeper, Selena begins to wonder, who was Martha really? But she is hardly prepared for what she’ll discover.
Expertly plotted and reminiscent of the timeless classic Strangers on a Train, Confessions on the 7:45 is a gripping thriller about the delicate facades we create around our lives.

I was interested in Safe House and Mrs. Your reviews were fantastic! I’ve never read anything by Lisa Unger. What do you recommend as a starting point?

Thanks, Sarah, and I highly recommend Unger’s series set in The Hollows: like The Whispering and Ink and Bone, to name a couple. The setting is creepy and suspenseful.
I hope you enjoy them.

Thank, Molly, I think suspense books really grab us and keep us distracted just enough. I always enjoy them, but I’ve been really loving them even more now.
