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.

Lived up to the hype!
So I wanted to see what all the hype was about and it was free on amazon kindle!
I really enjoyed this! It had a great pace, interesting characters and the story is a bit different from the usual YA. I used to read a lot of YA but found them getting a bit "samey" so I was dubious at first thinking that this would be your typical rom-com style, but it really wasn't.
I did guess the ending but I was enjoying the read so much that it didn't bother me that I had an idea of what was coming 😊

So I finished an awesome paranormal two books so far series, [b:Captive|30830592|Captive|Jex Lane|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1467474117s/30830592.jpg|51425133] and [b:Sire|32721063|Sire|Jex Lane|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1477076298s/32721063.jpg|52587454] and hunted for something to read similar and noticed that pretty much all my kindle books were contemporary romances. Then I decided to scour Amazon for new paranormal reads and this was a freebie!!
I am so glad I downloaded it! I loved pretty much everything about it. It had vampires, romance, action, sexual tension... and then a little shocker at the end!
I really need to read the rest of this trilogy!

A shadow over Innsmouth
By H. P Lovecraft
Once read a review will be written via Smashbomb and link posted in comments
The story describes of a strange hybrid race, half-human and half an unknown creature that resembles a cross between a fish and frog, that dwells in the seaside village of Innsmouth (formerly a large town, but lately fallen into disrepair). The townspeople worship Cthulhu and Dagon, a Philistine deity incorporated into the Cthulhu Mythos.
He certainly has way of telling stories. This one was interesting and kinda gross I could almost smell the stench. One of the better ones I’ve read so far.

Huh. I'm Team Nate all the way so I wasn't really impressed by all the Max time in this book. I don't feel the same chemistry between him and Hanna as I do between her and Nate.
So damn right he turned up at the end! And thank God he isn't dead or I'd be throwing my Kindle across my bedroom right now! He needs to stop being an arse about the new family thing and Hanna needs to tell him about the pregnancy and then they can FINALLY get together because they are perfect for each other.
Already bought book 3, off to start it.

Hmm...this one didnt quite grab me, either, like the first two did. As much as i love Quinn and the last half of this book, the first half with Cora...well, i just wanted to throw my kindle/laptop/phone because it felt so wrong! She was so horrible and Quinn was so lovely.
One thing i do love about this series, though, is how close this gang is. They all rib and tease each other but will stick up for each other in a heartbeat. It's so nice!
I can't wait to read Ten and Caroline's story so I'm off to start it right now :D

4.25 stars
I think Luna's inability to believe that people don't do nice things just to be nice and not because they feel sorry for you/want something in return was very annoying. Yeah, crappy childhood/crappy parents, but it's been a good handful of years! Let it go! There were so many times I mentally screamed at my kindle while reading this. He likes you, stupid!
They got there in the end but God did I cry like a baby for a while. I think it was more frustration than anything though. She was so blind!
I will read all future releases by the author.
