5 *****


I’m lost for words. This book was so beautiful, heart-wrenching, emotionally charged and enigmatic! The feelings that flooded me with each page was all-consuming. The words were to beautifully and intricately put together and pulls the reader in, makes you feel as if you’re part of Ireland - whether in Ballycove or on Swift Square in Dublin, it doesn’t matter. I’m in awe of this author’s fabulous penmanship and how she creates these characters and brings them to life. 

The characters were fantastic to read about, though Amanda started off as a snobby, upper-class woman but she ends up being someone likeable, happy and content in life. Tess is my spirit woman, she’s feisty and independent but also, in the end, caring and soft at heart. These two characters have really touched my heart and I know I won’t be forgetting them in a hurry!

The writing style is perfect, the attention to detail is phenomenal. This book is worthy of 50 more stars... maybe even more than that. 

I loved Faith Hogan’s other book, ‘My Husband’s Wives’, but this one clinched my heart in ways I don’t even understand. 

I can’t wait to read more form this author!

~*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...

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 ...
