#TheNightTheLightsWentOut #KarenWhite #DoubleSpinBook

Recently divorced, Merilee Talbot Dunlap moves with her two children to the Atlanta suburb of Sweet Apple, Georgia. It's not her first time starting over, but her efforts at a new beginning aren't helped by an anonymous local blog that dishes about the scandalous events that caused her marriage to fail.

This was my last read in 2021 and it was a good one! Merilee moves her kids to a suburb of Atlanta and rents from Sugar Prescott a very formidable woman. When a blog starts to dish the dirt on Merilee 's divorce she finds help from Sugar. There are lots of secrets going around this town and things start to turn bad for Merilee. It's got it all romance, murder and drama.

This is the last book I brought to Cuba, it's too early to tell if I like this book. It's been a mixed bag with the books I brought two read and two DNF.

Thanks to these folks for today‘s prompt:

Sorry I can never narrow it down to just 3. But here are my picks for #groupP #LMPBC. Let me know your thoughts.

I‘m not in the mood for my library stack right now.. this one that was given to me the other day though, has piqued my interest! #amreading

One of my bad customers gave me this book 😍🤗! I‘m pretty pumped!

Up next! 🍑🎧

Reading this via audiobook which makes it extra fun! Was hesitant at first having not read Karen White, but glad I jumped in. My new favorite phrase is, “Well bless her heart”. This is the best transition to use before slapping someone with an insult.

When there's a character named Sugar, you know it's filled with Southern Charm 🍯🐝

Oh, Karen White, you are like a glass of sweet tea on a hot humid night. You go down so easy when I need a drink.

SO GOOD. Long story short - Southern charm with a little mystery & a lot of real life. I don‘t think I quite understood what this book is about when I started reading it. I expected some kind of love story - and it is, but not what I expected. Nor did I expect the murder. Somehow missed that little detail. Either way, I highly recommend reading this beautiful & beautifully written story.

That imagery! So beautiful 😍😩

This one will steal your heart. This story has so much to give to the reader, it's a must read.

Things aren‘t as sweet in Sweet Apple as they appear. The residents‘ true agendas run far deeper than you realize at the start. While I had one of the main characters pegged from the beginning, I would have never guessed how everything would conclude. It was easy to become invested in the characters and I anxiously awaited the next plot twists along the way. This was my first Karen White book and it most certainly won‘t be the last. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

LOVE her books. ❤️

I am going to parallel the word SECRETS with the word SINS for my post today. :)

Readers of women's fiction will again be transported back to the days of Southern ​hospitality and then brought back to current day with women who keep secrets and have everything and like to flaunt it.

Being late for a chemical peel does not give you the right to tailgate, no matter how uneven your skin tone.

The only redeeming thing about this book is Sugar Prescott.

I'm 232 pages into this book and still not feeling it; but I don't feel like trying to decide what else to read

#bookwormproblems 🤦‍♀️

Omg!!!😂🤣😂 One of the funniest scenes Ever!

I remember this trick😄

Aren't we all? 😄

My all time favorite Southernism

I just adored this audiobook! The voice actresses were outstanding and the story kept me outrageously entertained. The only thing I did not like was my best friend saying ‘in Georgia‘ every time I talked about this book title 😂

1. Yes, although titles are important too!
2. I love my porch, but my favorite reading spot during the summer is anywhere our little travel trailer decides to land...preferably in the mountains.
3. I read during every spare moment, so stopping mid-chapter is annoying, but part of life.
4. I‘m mostly an e-reader these days for convenience, but love bookmarks for my print editions.
5. Obviously..😉

I‘m a Karen White fan and this book did not disappoint. I always feel like her characters and the plat come alive when reading her books. I did know what the twist was going to be early on, but just not how it would all play out. A very enjoyable read. 4 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“Bible study? Since when?”
“Since I turned ninety-three. Figured it was time to start studying for my final exam.”

"That‘s the measure of friendship, isn‘t it? Knowing people who will jar your secret and store it in a dark cellar forever. People who know it‘s never about the secret itself, but the keeping of it."

Kicking off a four-day weekend with #KarenWhite. #TheNightTheLightsWentOut ☕📖

“She‘d always thought that memories were supposed to fade as she got older. Only the good ones, apparently. The bad ones seemed to grow sharper...”

My daughter and I made a trip to the library today after her ortho appointment. I‘m excited to read this one by Karen White. She‘s on of my favorite authors.

Peanut was not happy. I uncovered her for the first photo. #spoiledbrat #peanut #amreading #socksunday #notasundayfunday #KWPetfan #karenwhiteambassador. I love the cover of this book. And the book is pretty dang good too

Loved this!! Karen White knows how to weave a story. I was not able to put this down. Can‘t wait for her next book.

Have you read THE NIGHT THE LIGHTS WENT OUT by Karen White?

It is one of my favorites of hers.
