    Fear by Rob Bliss | Book Review

    April 12, 2021 / No Comments

    Fear by Rob Bliss is a thriller novel filled with action, horror, gore and a story that is both uncomfortable and unnerving in its narrative.  Although predominately a thriller novel it has plenty of horrific themes running through-out.  it’s a story that has fear at its absolute core.  If the government and subsequent authorities have no fear instilled in its citizens, then they have nothing…no control…nothing.  Although I enjoyed the story, I did find it extremely slow at times and it felt a lot longer than the two hundred odd pages it was. It was an ambitious story with a ton of promise, but it just failed to hit the…

    The Islanders by S.V. Leonard | Blog Tour Review

    March 7, 2021 / 3 Comments

    Damn if a trapped, suspenseful mystery doesn’t just tap into that inner flight or fight response.  The Islanders delivers on everything it says it does.  Think Love Island with the ultimate twist.  A horrifying and bloody twist.  The two shows are different but standing up together in proximity, they are created from the same primordial soup that humanity crawled from.  A desire to escape from life, a hint of romance distanced from everyday life and some hot hot sun.  S.V. Leonard plays with fire and peels back the layers of human emotion and greed.  This debut will have you rushing through the pages in a race to the end. The…

    The Good Guy by Dean Koontz | Review

    February 20, 2021 / 1 Comment

    The Good Guy is thrilling, and you can feel the adrenaline coursing through your veins.  The anticipation, the fear, it is all a heady mix that bubbles up to a conclusion.  It’s a novel that I’m surprised hasn’t been adapted for the screen – suited to the Jason Stratham type actors.  It was a fun read that passed the hours quickly; was it Koontz’s best novel, not by far but it was fun for what it was.  A lot of stuff didn’t add up for me and I’ll get into that soon. The Good Guy centres around the event of a stranger walking into a bar and mistakes our protagonist,…

    The Resident by David Jackson | Review

    December 9, 2020 / 4 Comments

    When I first requested an advanced readers copy of The Resident, I was very excited!  There has been so much hype on book-twitter and a lot of blogger friends loved it.  I am very weary of getting involved in hyped books because I really don’t want to be disappointed.  I expected a strong psychological thriller but boy…this beast packed a spine shattering punch!  Imagine my delight when from chapter one onwards – I knew this was going to be the kind of dark and depraved that I live for in a crime novel.  The title and that mind-blowing cover set my imagination crazy.  Imagine a serial killer actually living in…

    The Cousins by Karen M. McManus | Blog Tour Review

    December 5, 2020 / 4 Comments

    Today I’m happy to be a part of The Write Reads Ultimate blog tour for the highly anticipated, The Cousins by Karen M. McManus.  Now, for a reader to be sucked into an author’s writing style, their narrative, they need the X-factor.  Something that allows them to keep coming back…book after book.  Karen M. McManus is no exception.  There are so many reasons why I keep coming back for more with her stories.  The air of mystery, the journey and most of all the care that is given to keep loyal readers.  The Cousins is a story that is reminiscent of the I know what you did last summer trope. …

    Dead Air by Micheal Bradley | Review

    November 17, 2020 / 1 Comment

    Dead Air so much promise and yet fell flat at every turn of the page.  I was actually very excited to read this one.  A secret, revenge promised and action aplenty.  However, the reality was very much different.  The writing was ok, but I found it places it tripped itself up.  The story struggled to keep my attention but also seemed to have the power to get me extremely angry.  There was a plot development at around 40% that nearly made me give up, it’s not what I thought should happen to the character or where the natural progression of the narrative should have been.  Dead Air follows our protagonist,…
