A great collection of patterns for crocheters of any level. Dont worry about being able to read the patterns because they are simple and straightforward with great images to accompany them. I love collections like this because there are so many patterns to choose from and they have such a wide variety, I dare you to find less than 5 things you want to crochet! Not to mention they are adorable as all get out. The best part? You require only 1 skein or less of yarn to make each project. Its perfect for those who need a quick project or want to make something for all those little babies in (or about to be in) their lives.

This book was one hell of a roller coaster and I still after finishing it can’t decide on who is the narcissist and who is the sociopath. One minute it’s Mike. The next it’s V. You sympathize with each while the other disgusts you.
I started this mid afternoon and didn’t put it down until the wee hours of the next morning. Read it. I dare you. You’ll crave each turn of the page. ?

Although a mistake, and seemingly justified at the time, Rachel, accidentally kills the man her daughter Beth was having an affair with. From then on, both women are forced to cover their tracks to not only hide evidence from the police, but Beth’s fiancé, Peter, too. Beth’s marriage to Peter was supposed to be the answer to all their financial worries and further her acting career, but if this ever got out, well you can imagine, not only would the wedding be over because of her affair, but if caught for murder their lives would be inevitably ruined forever with prison awaiting.
Written from from both mother and daughter’s point of view in first person, this edgy psychological thriller had me hooked from the first page.
‘Don’t You Dare’ was one heck of a fast, tense read for me. Watching the mother desperately trying to sort out her mess, and keeping her daughter from going into a full on meltdown and revealing all, kept me on edge throughout. On top of that, each time I thought I knew all the answers the storyline branched out into another direction, and upped the stakes for both ladies even more.
The ending is superb! I loved how twist after twist the final scenes came to a satisfying end, whilst at the same time the story took on a different angle where an underlying threat would always shadow the two women. Yes, I’m being cryptic for a reason! This is indeed heart-stopping as the hype suggests! I thoroughly enjoyed this thriller, and A.J. Waines’ entertaining writing.
Thanks to A.J. Waines, Bloodhound books and Netgalley for my copy. This is my honest opinion of Don’t You Dare.
