Reading this book is fine until you remember the girl you're reading talk about sleeping with her father, doing drugs, being trained to be a prostitute after kidnapping until you remember this girl is meant to be 10 years old, only 14 by the end of it. I find it horrible to think of a girl in this position, be it at any age, let alone a child going through these vulgar acts and giving her takes on them.

A modern day 'In Cold Blood'
This is a pretty incredibly written book about a real life murder investigation coinciding with the author's own harrowing experiences. While true crime is now a hot genre, Alexandria Marzano-Lesnevich has weaved together a humane story, a backdrop of how this horrifying crime occurred not dissimilar to how Truman Capote wrote In Cold Blood. However, her own horrific story parallels the investigation giving the entire novel a whole new dimension. Recommended read indeed.

this is one of my favourite authors, I was really excited to receive this ARC. the author is brilliant at giving you complexed characters in a fantastic story line. the story enfolds beautifully and leaves you wanting more, roll on book 2. this book has a cliff hanger ending which will defiantly keep you wanting more. I love how there are still lots of secrets to unfolds in the next books.

Obsessed book reviews (49 KP) rated Ridge (The Crow Brothers, #4) in Books
May 7, 2019
This is the forth book in this series by this author. What an amazing read, the prologue had me hooked. This author has a fab way of giving so much depth to there characters. This book is full of emotions but also fun and sexy as well. The characters have very intense and hot chemistry between them. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.

Carley Taylor (9 KP) rated Hagakure: The Secret Wisdom of the Samurai in Books
Feb 1, 2018
Okay so this book has a great intro explaining how to read this book and giving context to the extremely involved readings.
The ending is tedious. The first half of the book is like reading abstract poetry, interesting but mildly concerning and confusing. The only way I could describe this book to friends was "written by a crazy old samurai" and that's pretty much the whole of it.
If you like learning about ancient samurai tradition, this is the book for you!

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2672 KP) rated If You Give a Mouse a Cookie in Books
Mar 9, 2018
A creative progression story that starts with a simple act of kindness, giving a mouse a cookie. From there, however, things progress until they loop back around.
The book is simple but filled with great illustrations. And the journey is so creative. I missed this book until I read it with my niece and found it absolutely charming.

This novel is outstanding! It is the second in a series but works just as well as a stand-alone since the author does a great job of giving the reader all the information needed without overwhelming the story. This exciting novel is everything an action thriller should be. It is fun, exciting, riveting and interesting. I can’t wait to read the next Joe the Bouncer book which I’m certain will be a page turner you can’t put down, just like this one.

I loved this retelling of the Who Wants To Be A Millionaire coughing scandal, the acting was superb, Sheen did a fantastic job as Tarrant. The story is well told without ultimately giving you an answer. It has an amazing retro feel and I thought I remember this so clearly but when you look back so much if forgotten. Well done ITV for also being able to have a bit of a laugh at themselves!
