3.5 ****


Um, what did I just read? It was kind of motivational yet creepy and controlling... and very confusing. Even now, as I’ve finished the book, I’m completely confused on what went on. By the ending of the story, you’re thrown into so much at once that you don’t know which to follow and to me, that didn’t work. With psychological thrillers, they have to be completely perfect, right to the end. But this one missed a lot and jumped to everything so quickly I even went back a few pages to see if I’d missed something. The end quarter of the book, for me, was rushed. 

But... I did like the characters, though Ann drove me nuts and why Sadie would even want to be friends with such a human being, I’d never know! Everything that came to light, in the end, was a surprise but a bit far-fetched and unrealistic and in this genre? It has to be realistic to a certain degree. I think this is what made it not work for me. But I do have a high set bar in this genre. 

The writing style was brilliant, kept me hooked and drew me in from page one. The story just didn’t do it for me. The star rating, mainly, is for penmanship, character personalities and the story idea.

~*BOOK REVIEW*~ The Never Game by Jeffery Deaver Add to #Goodreads TBR: http://bit.ly/2Jk71uL #BuyLinks: Releasing MAY 16!! Amazon US: https://amzn.to/2E6OUUZ Amazon UK: https://amzn.to/30hFzmE 3 *** This was a great step up from the last book I read from this author, but still no where near his best. I know he can produce phenomenal stories.. this isn’t one of them. Though the last quarter of the book was gripping, exciting and in a way, fun.  I liked Colter Shaw, but I didn’t like the fact that he never smiled, he was cold as hell (when he should be a bit friendlier to certain people) and little dense. Maddie’s character though, urgh, what a drab. I didn’t like her personality and she was way too strong.  But Standish made a fabulous character. Absolutely adored her work ethics and her personality. She was the best character throughout.  The storyline was a good one, though this author likes to jump from scene to scene with abs

~*BOOK REVIEW*~ When You Disappeared by John Marrs Add to #Goodreads TBR: http://bit.ly/2rMBKpB #BuyLinks: Amazon US: https://amzn.to/2V0e3HC Amazon UK: https://amzn.to/2UYNItx 4 **** I got this book on a whim because I saw a friend post quite a good review for this book, but then I was also just as dubious after reading many other not so great reviews. But, nevertheless, I dived into this book with an open mind, plus I LOVE psychological thrillers, and this story is written exactly as a psychological thriller should be written. The back and forth, leaving the reader in suspense, is exactl what I love about this genre. So in other words, if you don't like the genre don't bother reading. Simple as. Back to my review... It was intense story throughout, with both a female and male POV, which was great. I liked the going back so many years then flitting back to the present. It definitely keeps us readers on our toes that's f

~*BOOK REVIEW*~ Little White Lies by Philippa East Add to Goodreads TBR: http://bit.ly/2qdiqVj Pre-order Links: RELEASING February 4, 2020! Amazon US: https://amzn.to/2r1JV44 Amazon UK: https://amzn.to/2D0mBWZ 5 ***** This book has to be my second most favourite book I've ever read. It's incredibly insightful and cleverly put together. This author knows how to keep her readers hooked to every word, every page and every detail. My mind has officially been blown with this psychological thriller. And it's definitely one I recommend if you love twists and turns, cleverness and tenseness. This story has it ALL. Anne, Abigail, Jess, Lillian, Robert, Fraser, Preston, Laurie & Sam, were all FANTASTIC characters. Preston wasn't mentioned so much, but as Abigail's father, I thought to include him in the list. Laurie & Sam too, Abigail's little twin brothers because they had a small impact later in the book. Abi
