A weekly feature where I tell you about the new books on my TBR.
This post is running a bit late, since uni is really hectic, and these posts always take me a long time to do! Also, a bit of a shorter list this week, but still with great books to check out!
1. Marlena by Julie Buntin
Why I added it: This book has been going around recently, and it has received a ton of praise. It immediately caught my attention when I saw it revolved around a relationship between two young girls, one of which dies, and leaves the other to deal with the aftermath, even years later. I just really like the exploration of how one person can have a huge impact on another person’s life.
2. Six Stories by Matt Wesolowski
Why I added it: I saw this book pop up here and there, but I decided to add it after seeing it over on Keeper of Pages (check it out!). This is a crime mystery novel, but it’s structured as a true crime podcast series, where a journalist interviews six different people about a death. Sounds fabulous. As I’ve mentioned previously, I love podcasts (my recommendations on Bookish Podcasts can be found HERE), so this sounds perfect! Non books related – Serial, which was superb and you should definitely listen to it.
3. Ragdoll by Daniel Cole
Why I added it: I am all for serial killer stories. I also really love movies where they’re trying to catch a serial killer. It’s a thing. I always find the MO of the serial killer intriguing, his signature mark. And that’s why this book caught my attention. A body is discovered with stitched parts of six different victims, and the press aptly nicknames it “The Ragdoll”. Sounds super disturbing and super awesome. Also, why this cover doesn’t feature a ragdoll is beyond me.
4. American War by Omar El Akkad
Why I added it: Another book that has been receiving a lot of buzz recently. It deals with The Second Civil War in America, set in the near future, and apparently a girl is bred to be a weapon. That’s all I read about it and I was in.
So those are my newest additions! As always, hope you enjoyed and let me know about new books on your TBR!

Inside My Library Mind 
Yes to Ragdoll and Six Stories! I have no money to buy Six Stories, but I’m hoping to read Ragdoll soon! I’m so excited for both. I have an overflowing number of thrillers on my TBR. 😂
