I have read a numerous of books this year. Books I have either read all the way to the end, or admittedly, not.

I have to be honest, had I saw this book in a store, I probably wouldn't have picked it up.

This, is by no means, to say I wouldn't like it. When I go into a book store I tend to know what I am looking for; history, art, architecture, poetry, film writing...
Anything that would inspire me in my current project of writing.

As it were, my ma' grabbed this book-amongst many others-and I took a shine to this book immediately. If someone asks me what sort of books do you like, I cannot give specific responses because I don't particular have a favourite theme/genre. Although I do not tend to read; Si-Fi, Horror, Adventure, or any sort of magical/mythical books, as one may place Harry Potter into?
So, when I read the back of this book, I was very intrigued.
It left you with...how does this person know that, and why?

I am, as many people know, a slow reader. If I rush a book I do not fully understand what took place, or the certain details you may need to remember. However, with this book, I looked forward to bed time, when I can jump into my bed, get all cosy on these incoming cool nights and read this book.

All the characters, baring one, I took a shine to.

This is a fast-paced suspense thriller that leaves you wanting to know more and more.

My favourite book of the year, without a doubt.

I will sure be looking for more of Mary Kubica's books
