Welcome to Wednesday, May 28th 2025! It’s a notable date because it’s my daughter’s birthday. She’s turning 18, and she wanted exactly 18 books for her birthday.
She knows my weakness – if she had asked for 18 of anything else, it would have been a big, fat nope. Books? You got it.
And one of those books may be from today’s list. She’s a big psychological thriller fan, and Sam Vickery is releasing a new novel today perfect for fans of psychological thrillers with a twist!
Sam’s latest gripping page-turner is One Big Happy Family, and perfect for fans of Jodi Picoult and Liane Moriarty.
