Started listening to Pen Pal by J.T. Geissinger

 

Hello bookies,

I am trying to tackle my TBR before my bif move. Meaning I am trying to read and listen to as many books as I can from my local library. All because it will take me a while to find the local library in the new town and state I am moving to. Anyway i have no idea what this book is about. I know once upon a time it was popular on TikTok. But that is about it. I am only an hour into the book because my family has an extra need to bug me now that I am moving. Have I learned anything in that hour? Not really. But our main female character had just lost her husband in an accident and now she is left with a house that is falling apart alone. But weird things are starting to happen in the house that our main female character has been writing off. Flickering lights that must be electrical issues, even though the handyman said everything is fine. Mysterious letter addressed to her on the kitchen counter? She must have checked the mail and forgot she did. You know because she is so stressed from losing her husband. Markings on her neck that could be fingerprints? Must be left over from the accident even though things should have been healed by now. But as I listen, I wonder if our female lead is getting drugged, which will put this book in dark romance territory if that is true and things are going on that she can't remember. But we also have the mysterious Aiden that has come to her place to check out her roof. Our main female character is both attracted and annoyed by him. I stopped listening at the part our main female character goes to a grief support group. But I didn't get far because my mother wanted to spend time with me. So far I am just trying to figure out if I like the book. The first few chapters are just the reader learning about the characters. I don't expect a whole lot until I am a little bit further in the book.

So until next time....
