this book will bury me by ashley winstead

Story review- this was a cleverly constructed and well executed story. I loved the ending, especially about her father’s death, it was just beautifully written.

This is a story of a young 24 year old girl who drops out of the university of central Florida in order to work full time at Starbucks and solve murders online in Reddit. She becomes sort of famous because she is very good at it and is driven by her father’s memory. She joins an online team of true crime investigators. This really worked, they had great chemistry and all of them had interesting back stories.

In criticism I do think it was a little long, but other than that I liked the story.

Audiobook- while I did enjoy the narrator’s performance, I had a hard time with volume on this one. For the narrative/internal dialogue sections she spoke so quietly, almost whispering. Then when she would flip to dialogue it was so loud. I have never had this experience with an audiobook. Although I will say I listened on a highway drive so maybe it was just me. If you are going to listen on audio I would recommend you listen while cleaning or in an office.

Thank you to NetGalley and sourcebooks audio for the ALC. book to be published march 25, 2025.
