We’ll I’ve had this book on my shelf for over We’ll I’ve had this book on my shelf for over a year and I finally read it, what a mindf**k! Let me just sweep my jaw of the floor.. 💀💀
I know this book gets a lot of various responses, but I personally enjoyed it. I love a good creepy, twisted psychological thriller and this one definitely gave me the heebiejeebies a few times. 4.5⭐️ from me.

 I wasn’t a big fan of ACOTAR, but decided to give SJM another try with this series. I am definitely enjoying this book so far!! It’s not perfect, but it’s a fun read and I’m interested in continuing the series. 
Which SJM series do you prefer?

bookshelves? By genre? Alphabetically? By size? By color?
The Fantasy section of my bookshelves is definitely the largest, with the Horror/thriller/mystery coming in second. I’ve been trying to figure out the best way to organize my shelves and am indecisive. Right now they’re by genre, then alphabetically by author.
