Little Creeping Things by Chelsea Ichaso

Little Creeping Things by Chelsea Ichaso is fine for school libraries. I figured out who the murderer was but not the reason. Of course I'm way old and know alot about plot and such. It's fine to add to any high school library for teens looking for a thriller. Enjoy.

Molly the Maid #1 The Maid by Nita Prose

Molly the Maid #1 The Maid by Nita Prose is an interesting murder mystery. Not really a cozy one. Molly works at a hotel. Her ill grandmother has passed away, she's behind in her rent and she clearly is in the spectrum and has trouble reading people's expressions is a good natured and always helpful young woman of 25 years. She accidentally gets involved with a murder when she finds a regular guest dead in the hotel room she cleans. Told in her perspective, she goes from an innocent trusting woman to a woman accused of murder. It's an interesting read. There are mixed reviews. I'm on the cusp and I would read another sequel to the series.
