I received a copy of this book to review it. OMG I read it start to finish in one setting!!! This thriller is only part one so I have to wait to see what happens next. It closely resembles the current president except he was the running mate to the first woman president. Who killed the president elect during her victory speech? Was the billionaire running mate or someone else???

I didn't enjoy this as much as the first.
I wanted to read more about Silvio and Stefano not Battista (or however the hell it's spelt). I wanted to read more of their progressing relationship not Silvio's weird one with the older guy.
I am so intrigued by the possibilities, though, that I think I may have to go and buy the third book just to see what happens next.

In a Dark Wood I'm a huge fan of Josh Lanyon and whether it's a long story or a short one he always manages to draw you in. This was no different, though I wasn't expecting it to be so creepy.
I really like both Luke and Tim and can't wait to see what happens next with these two.

Ugh! I'm so frustrated! Who knows how long I'm going to have to wait to find out happens next!? That is the crappiest part of this book. There are still so many loose ends with the conclusion of this part.
As usual, this book did not disappoint. There was still the usual blend of treachery, lies, murder, etc. Without giving too much away, I was thrilled to read about Cersi finally getting hers!! She is one of my least favorite characters. But I was also bummed to read the arc of Jon Snow. :( I'm hoping that Martin has a surprise up his sleeve still with Snow. He was an intriguing character.
I guess all I can do now is wait with the rest of the world to see what happens next. Well played Martin!

A must read
I am currently reading this book for the 8th time but, this time I am reading aloud to my son. We absolutely can not wait to see "what happens next" and, even though I know the book, on each reading it's like reading for the first time. My son is now waiting his acceptance letter from Hogwarts (he has not seen all the movies yet as he won't sit for long periods of time) I will not be telling him what happens. The book is a modern day classic and can be read at any level (although some words may be hard to pronounce).

You never know who will move in next door...
Hannah Mary McKinnon’s second novel, The Neighbors, is a domestic drama that explores past, lost, and present loves and what happens when they all collide.
They say to keep your friends close and your enemies closer, but what about your exes? Most people seem keen on keeping their exes as far away as possible. That’s a little hard to do when your ex happens to be your new next door neighbor. When Abby’s old flame, Liam, moves into the house next door she knows she’s in trouble. Both she and Liam are married to other people; however, the flame that existed between them has never fully burnt out. Thus, thing are bound to get messy.
Told in alternating points of view between Abby, her husband Nate, her teenage daughter Sarah, and Liam’s wife Nancy, this novel explores the traumatic events that have shaped Abby’s past and how they influence what is happening in the present day. The author doesn’t shy away from using heartbreak and dismay to highlight love affairs that have been and shouldn’t have been. At once suspenseful and sorrowful, The Neighbors explores the complexities of relationships and the consequences of withholding the truth from those you love.

Hmm...if i could remove the middle bit, the bits in Hell, where i was getting equally confused and bored by all the weird stuff hapenning then this would have been a four star read. I loved the beginning bit with the sky kraken thing and the end bit where the Magician is acting all kinds of bad-arse as he learns what else he can now do but the middle bit? Yeah, i was bored and skipping chunks.
Nevertheless i am eager to see what happens next with this group.
