Leah has made no secret of the fact that this is a very personal book for her, and I know (and know reviews will show) that others are bound to feel the same way about it. Black Iris by Leah Raeder is an intense and sexy (and intensely sexy) psychological thriller about a girl named Laney and her dark journey toward both revenge and self-acceptance. So, today, I’m featuring a book that is every single one of those things. Books that fill a major hole in what already exists for that category. Characters who are real and flawed and struggling and maybe a little atypical. Here are some things I love: Great books.
