Just finished The Guardians by John Grisham. Loved it; recommend if you were a fan of Grisham's legal thrillers back in the day.
Also just finished Big Lies in a Small Town by Diane Chamberlain. HIGHLY recommend if you like a good mystery with a little historical fiction thrown in.
Starting The Book of Lost Friends by Lisa Wingate today.
