Page Turner (1 more)
good paced plot
I received this book as part of the giveaway here on Smashbomb, and I'm really glad I did because this is a book that would have potentially passed me by. Its a very good debut novel by Alex Michaelides and I look forward to seeing where he takes it next.
The book its self is a very easy read and a real page turner, it throws plenty of red herrings your way and tries to keep you guessing, it keeps the characters interesting enough for you to care whats happening.
For me the ending was signposted very early on, but I still read with excitement towards the end to see how it all unfolded.
I'd certainly recommend it, its a couple of days read so can be consumed quite easily.

When the chief programmer at her new company is murdered, AIP Turing Hopper once again enlists her human friends to track a killer. Have an artificial intelligence personality as the main character once again proves a brilliant move as this is another page turner.

A very attention grabbing roller coaster of action, not as much romance as brief eroticism, but a real page turner nonetheless. There were quite a few grammatical errors through the pages that momentarily detracted from the reading but not enough to stop you for long. I'm looking forward to reading more into this series as it seems promising.

Rushed but thrilling
This is thrilling and a real page turner but it did feel rushed in places. I like the main character and found the use of the term mother quite haunting.
Sometimes the dialogue felt repetitive and was used over the top when building tension.
Having said that, I couldn't put it down and enjoyed the story.

This is the third book in the series and can be read as a stand alone read, though you are better reading it as part of the series. This is a fantastic romantic suspense story that will have you hooked till the last page. This is definitely a page turner of a book. The characters are fantastic and very well developed. This is a fast paced action romance story to keep you reading long into the night. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.

A fun page-turner
The protagonist is an alcoholic shut-in who suffers from PTSD. For entertainment, she watches old movies and spies on her neighbors. When she sees the woman next door get murdered, she begins to spiral out of control. Did she really see a murder, or did her medications cause her to hallucinate? Is she losing her mind or is something really wrong in the neighborhood?

A real page turner! I've had this book for awhile and having read White Crow by Marcus Sedgwick and loving it, I decided to give Midwinterblood a go.
What am amazing book!! I finished it in less than 24 hours! It's like reading a bunch of short stories that are part of one big story.
I'd definitely recommend this book as it's definitely one of my now faves =)
