August 21, 2015 at 1:02 amHi Ashley! It is so good to see you blogging more again, I have missed seeing your stories and photos and I hope it is a sign that everything is going well.
Have you read Girl On The Train by Paula Hawkins? It is similar to the others you mentioned and is a fun read.
Happy Thursday!

September 1, 2015 at 12:53 amI read this back when you posted it, so when – just a few days later – my family and I went to the library I picked up What Alice Forgot. WOW is right!!! I was SO sad for much of the book because the way she described her and her husband’s relationship in her 20’s is just like how my husband and I’s is now, and it broke my heart to think that it had gotten so hard for them (my husband had to console me for a while one night because I was so torn up).
Anyway, thanks for sharing. I look forward to picking up the others you mentioned when they are available at our library!
