Falling Behind Friday

Hi my peeps! Happy Friday!! On Fridays my Traveling Sisters and I share with you a book that we have, well let's say dropped the ball on. It doesn't mean we don't want to read it, but there is only so many hours in the day. This week we all have a different book that we are trying to fit in. Check out what Brenda and Norma over at Two Sisters Lost in a Coulee and Christina at Recipe and a Read have to say about their books. My book is An Unwanted Guest by Shari Lapena.

Ok dude, me too. I am not sure how this happened. I love Shari Lapena books! I have read both The Couple Next Door and The Stranger in the House. I loved them both. In my defense, I did download it from Edelweiss after the publication date.........so there is that.......

 

Yes me too Sonja, although I feel my walk of shame might be for a different reason than yours.....
Although, I feel this is the perfect time to read this book. Winter is upon us and the book is set in the dead of winter at a Inn. That gorgeous cover screams, read me in December! See below for the perfect view while reading this book!

Except I live in Florida.....Oh well I will just leave this up on my computer while I read it! Anyways, I can't wait to dig into this one. It has been on the back burner much too long. I would love to hear what you thought if you have read it. Check out the Goodreads summary below if you have not. It is sure to be a winner!


Goodreads Summary

A remote lodge in upstate New York is the perfect getaway. . . until the bodies start piling up.It's winter in the Catskills and the weather outside is frightful. But Mitchell's Inn is so delightful! The cozy lodge nestled deep in the woods is perfect for a relaxing--maybe even romantic--weekend away. The Inn boasts spacious old rooms with huge wood-burning fireplaces, a well-stocked wine cellar, and opportunities for cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, or just curling up with a book and someone you love. So when the weather takes a turn for the worse, and a blizzard cuts off the electricity--and all contact with the outside world--the guests settle in for the long haul. The power's down but they've got candles, blankets, and wood--a genuine rustic experience! Soon, though, a body turns up--surely an accident. When a second body appears, they start to panic. Then they find a third body. Within the snowed-in paradise, something--or someone--is picking off the guests one by one. They can't leave, and with no cell service, there's no prospect of getting the police in until the weather loosens its icy grip. The weekend getaway has turned deadly. For some couples, it's their first time away. For others, it will be their last. And there's nothing they can do about it but huddle down and hope they can survive the storm.
