Rachel (48 KP) rated The Devil, The Witch and The Whore (The Deal #1) in Books
May 27, 2017
This read was no exception - The characters were well fleshed out, the premise was very interesting and the writing is to a high standard. I definitely want to read the next book in the series!
The one annoyance I had was that timings in the story did not stay consistent. Ages of people when certain events took place do not match up to what you have already been told and I feel that it spoilt my immersion in the story. I really do wish that more care had been taken as, it turns out, these ages are very important!
I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys psychological suspense and mysteries. I also wonder........ Would I have made the same choice? I think so. Would you?

The Plot: Blank-faced bug killer Bill Lee (Peter Weller) and his dead-eyed wife, Joan (Judy Davis), like to get high on Bill's pest poisons while lounging with Beat poet pals. After meeting the devilish Dr. Benway (Roy Scheider), Bill gets a drug made from a centipede. Upon indulging, he accidentally kills Joan, takes orders from his typewriter-turned-cockroach, ends up in a constantly mutating Mediterranean city and learns that his hip friends have published his work -- which he doesn't remember writing.
Naked Lunch has since become a cult film, acclaimed for its surrealistic visual and thematic elements.
Its a crazy movie. A must see film.

Contemporary Urban Fantasy Psychological Suspense Thriller
Daisy is writing a letter to her unborn child whilst she sits in a jail cell awaiting her trial for murder. The book is written as a series of letters and provides Daisy's account of how she got to where she is but is she a reliable narrator?
I became very quickly engrossed in Daisy's story; it's full of tension and suspense with me desperately wanting to find out just what the heck happened. There are twists that had my mouth agape with the ending of the book causing me to gasp out loud. Written at a good pace, The Bride is a great psychological thriller that I would have no hesitation in recommending to readers of this genre.
Thanks to Boldwood Books and NetGalley for enabling me to read and share my thoughts of The Bride.
