Kept me guessing till the very end (0 more)
This is a good, easy reading crime book. It would say if anyone is trying to get into crime books this is a good one to start of with. It would be a book I'd recommend.
I love crimes books and I'm usually good at discovering the killer and sometimes the motive before it is revealed in the book but this one I couldn't guess at all. I enjoy when a book has me stumped as it keeps me reading. This was definitely a book I couldn't out down and needed to find out the killer.
The author really made the characters come to life and gave them their own voice and personality. They got each person spot on which might sound a weird thing to say but it helped the book and get an upstanding of each character.
Although it was a crime book there was a slight romance story to it. I like when a story has two stories ongoing as long as they don't intertwine too much and put one story into the background.
The blurb caught my attention but didn't give too much away.
I would read the other books in this series.
I received a complimentary copy of the book from the author via Voracious Readers Only.

I have made a mission for myself to read all of this author's books and this is one of about three I haven't got around to reading yet.

This one tells the story of three women who all fell for a guy called Angus. The description put me off a little until I started reading and realised they were triplets who all fell for the boy next door when they were 17. Each sister gets their own chapters and we learn how different they are and how they fell for the charming, down-to-earth Angus.

It's hard to get across my thoughts on this one without giving the entire story away.

I enjoyed the sisters' journey in this. How they finally figured out what they wanted in life and found love. How they overcame their own issues with stuff that had happened in the past and were just so happy now.

Phoebe was the sister that everyone loved, she could do no wrong, so I wasn't worried about her journey. I figured out Eliza's story from early on so it was Rose who really caught my attention. She'd always been the sensible sister, the one who put everyone else first so I was intrigued by what would happen with her. I wasn't disappointed.

I really liked that ending with everyone in Australia. It was nice seeing everyone back together.

Are you looking for a cute spring story for your children or child? One that may deal with a significant issue that comes away gently but deals with the problem. I thought this was a fun and lovely story about the persuasion of what you wanted. But also, bullying does not always get your way. The Sprightly Carrot's Dream is the book to get.

Children will learn some suitable life lessons about bullying and learn about gardening; Children will learn about kindness and friendship. I did see this throughout the book. I wonder what Spright will do to achieve this dream? Will he get his goal, or will he not.

Sometimes being what you are is essential, and enjoying that. Children will learn something about carrots and also about flowers. Will Dave get what is coming to him? The way he acts and does not like Spright for some reason.

Parents will love this book on their children's bookshelves as it does teach some lessons about some fun things. Parents and children can learn about carrots and learn something about carrot roots and what they might make. You will be surprised.

The author does a beautiful job with this. I even learned something about carrot roots and what could happen. I thought the story was sweet. The pictures are beautiful as we

Are you looking for a funny little book about cheese? Well, this book is all about cheese. Well, about a cheesemaker. It is suitable for children and a little funny. I hope that it does not make you or your child happen turned off on cheese or things with cheese in them.

The story is fun but be on the lookout for a child to be saying no to eating cheese. The picture remains done well. The rhyming is cute. Will Durdsden figure out how to make cheese and have it tasty? Or will he turn people off once he tells how he makes his delicious cheese?

I am not so sure I would want to eat cheese or much of it if I thought of the process of this being how cheese remains made. We do need a little humor, and children do too. Children may not overthink it and enjoy the story nonetheless.

Children will love it. They made me laugh. That is good for this is a silly little story on Cheesemaker Durdsden and how he loves cheese and making it. Will the town be on the map? Parents, be aware of your children decide to turn down cheese after reading this. Children can have active imaginations, and this one is just as good with it. Will cheesemaker a name for himself and his little village?
