I think I'm finally going to finish reading A Very Bad Thing by J.T, Ellison this week since I've been reading it for months. Since I am not a "did not finish" kind of reader, when I'm not enjoying something, I will just stretch it out. Honestly, that probably makes it worse in the long run, extending the agony, but it's something I just can't get beyond.
Over the course of 2025, I've found myself bored by thrillers and really wanting to focus on pure mysteries, but I have so many thrillers on the shelves, I think I will still slot them in between other potentially more enjoyable reads.
Anyway, about A Very Bad Thing - from the jacket:
A great writer knows when to deliver a juicy plot twist. But for one author, the biggest twist of all is her own murder.
With a number of hit titles and a highly anticipated movie tie-in, celebrated novelist Columbia Jones is at the top of her game. Fans around the world adore her. But on the final night of her latest book tour, one face in the crowd makes the author collapse. And by the next morning, she's lying dead in a pool of blood.
Columbia's death shocks the world and leaves Darian, her daughter and publicist, reeling. The police have nothing to go on - at first. But then details emerge, pointing to the author's illicit past. Turns out many people had motive to kill Columbia. And with a hungry reporter and frustrated cop on the trail, her secrets won't stay buried long. But how many lives will they shatter as the truth comes out?
