One Minute Later by Susan Lewis

Once again I was taken in by an ambiguous blurb on Goodreads. I do not mean to say I did not like the book. I enjoyed it but part of that was overshadowed by my expecting something extremely 'thriller like' to jump out at me. This is not a story of secrets although there is…

Queenie Malone’s Paradise Hotel by Ruth Hogan

I did not have much luck with the previous book by the author and I really wanted to like it. This particular wish is almost never granted because of the pressure of the situation. Luckily for me, this particular book was pretty unique. The thing about this book is that nothing is as it seems. We meet…

Just After Midnight by Catherine Ryan Hyde

Narrator : Kate Rudd I have read a lot more of the author's books than just the ones I have reviewed on the blog. I discovered the author a couple of years ago, the writing and the stories have continued to enthrall me since. This could be called a bias but it also sets a…

What Happens in France by Carol Wyer

I am glad I am still sticking to the pre release posting plan of mine. This book is set to release on January 28th. This is not a book that you can judge by its cover or tone. It starts off in the light category, winds its way through possible mystery category and back to…

The Art of Inheriting Secrets by Barbara O’Neal

Narrator: Stina Nielsen After a lot of audibles back to back at the end of last year, there has been a significant drop in them here on the blog. Mostly since I am with family, I keep my ears free even if I am actually reading a book. Also I mention yet again my post 2018…

The Psychology of Time Travel by Kate Mascarenhas

As I sit here and ponder over how best to put forward my thoughts in appropriate review fashion, I feel a lot like I felt as I wrote the Review of The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton. I think I might have been clear enough in that so I shall use that as…

A Spark of Light by Jodi Picoult

Before I begin the review I need to mention that I am glad to be finally back to blogging. I have been effectively offline for more than a week. Only flitting online once in a while taking the chance to peruse other people's post and maybe respond to the few comments I got and be…
