    Psychological Thriller

    The Wife Upstairs by Rachel Hawkins | Blog Tour Review

    January 10, 2021 /

    The Wife Upstairs is an absolutely stonker of a Jane Eyre retelling.  Compulsive, enthralling but be prepared with that body armour because you are going to need it! Tragic and astounding.  The story immediately calls for audience participation.  You want to jump into the book and knock some sense into a lot of people but that is what’s just brilliant about this story.  This story is an escape, it made realise just how boring and dull my everyday life is.  Dependable husband.  Three kids.  Nice house.  Quiet.  Something that the protagonist of the story has dreamed of her entire life.  The Wife Upstairs had everything that I adore about mystery…

    Dead Perfect by Noelle Holten | Blog Tour

    October 17, 2020 /

    Thanks to Sarah Hardy at Books on the Brightside for a place on the blog tour and for a copy of the book. As always it’s a pleasure to be involved. Some authors just punch you right in the feels and Noelle Holton just keeps on living up to that reputation with every book she releases.  When the invitation to join the blog tour for the next DC Maggie Jamieson adverture, Dead Perfect, landed in my email inbox, there was no chance I was going to pass up on it.  Reading Dead Perfect was like meeting up with a best friend that you haven’t seen in months and it’s comforting…

    Children by Bjørn Larssen | Blog Tour

    October 6, 2020 /

    Children by Bjørn Larssen is one of those truly once in a lifetime reads.  Whilst reading it felt like all the stars had aligned, every wish I ever had come true, it was the jackpot lottery win.  It has everything.  The striking colour and magic that it promises within, decadent characterisation and prose that is as majestic as a sunset.  This was a blog tour that I couldn’t pass up on matter how snowed under I was writing reviews (you’d think I’d learn).  This is what Norse fiction should be all about and Bjørn Larssen is a master craftsman in it’s art. The word Children instantly brings images into the…

    The Perfect Couple by Jackie Kabler | Review

    October 4, 2020 /

    The Perfect Couple – always beware any book title that has perfect in it.  Nine times out of ten it is anything but perfect.  Gemma and Danny have the perfect life, the perfect jobs, and the perfect friends.  Nothing and no-one are perfect, and Danny and Gemma are no exception.  Gemma is a freelance journalist and Danny works in IT.  Life is sweet, that is until Gemma goes on a business trip and comes home to no chilled prosecco, no dinner cooking, and no Danny.  Initially Gemma thinks he’s been held late at work but the hours tick by and still there’s no Danny.  She is finally forced to report…

    Psychological Thriller

    A Prayer For The Broken by Mark Tilbury | Blog Tour

    October 2, 2020 /

    A Prayer for The Broken is an accurate testament that we shouldn’t fear creepy crawlies or heights – it is human’s that hold the key to breaking us open.  They have all the tools to completely alter our psyches.  I’m not ashamed to admit that this book held me in rapturous anticipation.  I hated characters with every fibre of my being and wanted a serious accident to befall them.  This psychological thriller chilled me to the very core but boiled my blood in the same sentence.  It has only solidified my viewpoint that people do such evil things in the name of religion. Eleven-year-old John McCormack has lost everything.  His…
