Fantastic writing, gripping! (0 more)

EPIC and Highly Recommended

The author, Sheryl Browne, has created a heart-stopping psychological thriller packed with strong characters. The book had me gripped from the first to the very last page and I could not put it down in between!

Sheryl Browne takes us on a heart-stopping rollercoaster ride and has a fascinating way of taking you into the middle of events where you can’t help but feel empathy for all characters and even understand what is going on in the mind of The Babysitter.

I found myself unable to just sit still and read, I was pacing the floor, munching on junk food and whilst I started reading with a glass of wine, there was a paragraph in the book that shook me so much I dropped my glass. I replaced it with something a little stronger and got comfy as I knew I would not be sleeping until I reached the final page.

My Kindle gave the ‘low power warning’ when I was 48% through and I had to sit in the corner with the charging cable for the rest of the book.

I don't want to give away any secrets of the book - would just say read it and read it quick!

I purchased this book via Amazon Kindle and have now purchased a paperback copy for a friend.

Netflix is a great application for watching movies, dramas, documentaries etc. The app allows you to have multiple accounts so that friends and family can use their own account to add movies etc to their list to watch and keep a track of what they are watching, without interfering with what you are watching. The app allows you to use Netflix also on multiple devices such as an iPad, Playstation, Laptop etc, which makes for easy viewing on the go. The ap does however require internet connection for viewing. There is a lot of choice, with Netflix series becoming more popular and well-made. The downfall would be that well-loved titles are often removed, for example such as 'Home Alone' being removed at the most popular time (Christmas Holidays), or the Grinch. These movies are often removed at peak times, so that viewers often have to pay for the movies elsewhere. It makes you wonder why you're paying subscription fees, if titles like these are removed just as you want to watch them! Also I've noticed a recent increase in the subscription fees, which is a shame, especially as more and more similar and competing apps are becoming more popular, such as Amazon prime (which offers the very latest, more choice - especially with series).
