[quote=Anonymous]I’m working on a time consuming home project and have been listening to a lot of books on Libby  while I work. I cross reference my TBR list with books available now.

Just finished two college themed thrillers The Parents weekend by Alex Finley and

The Maidens by Alex Michaelides

I have to laugh at some similarities. They each had a student character named Natasha from Russia but the settings couldn’t be more different.

Parents Weekend takes place at a small private College in Northern CA, The Maidens takes place at St Christopher’s college in Cambridge UK.

Parents Weekend was well done with a wide array of characters though the ending fell apart a little bit for me.

The Maidens leaned heavily on Greek Mythology which is interesting but the MC was completely clueless and annoying. I did like the ending though many folks on Goodreads hated the ending and it got very mixed reviews.

Also listened to We Used to live here by Marcus Kliewer. I liked this creepy supernatural book but need to read a written copy because I got lost a couple times. [/quote]
