Kindle Audiobook Hardcover Paperback
⭐⭐⭐⭐ out of 5
If you've read any of my other recent book reviews, you'll already know how I start off the review, right? If this is the first of my reviews that you've read then you need to know that I start each of my reviews by saying that every book I review starts off with the full trolley-load of 5 stars and that I'm forever hopeful that they will all still be firmly rooted to the spot by the time I close the back cover. Saying that though, I'm not shy about taking off stars but I always give my reason for each removal within the review - they don't just vanish for no reason. Also, it's only happened once so far, but I'm more than happy to replace a removed star if it's been knocked off for Trademark or Copyright reasons and there's a magic little sentence at the back.
Let's get going with the reading and reviewing shall we?
Wowsers! That first chapter was incredible! It got me straight into the action and introduced me to 3 characters without ramming it down my throat!
Chapter 2 was good too... not as good as the first one, but not far off either.
We're settling into soothing and calming now. The third chapter was shorter than the first one and I'm starting to care about the characters now.
Oh dear, there have been a couple of brand names dropped in so the first star is coming off now, unfortunately.
This review is getting a bit long, so like with the majority of other books I've read, I'll only comment on note-worthy things for the rest of the review.
I'm up to chapter 6 and it's my bedtime now, so let's let 'Nasty Nora' fester until tomorrow morning when I'll be shaking my head in delighted disbelief again. I'll admit that I'm a 'Nasty Nora wannabe' but I just don't have the guts or confidence it needs to even begin to think about being able to pull it off!
Let's get going with the reading and reviewing for the second day shall we?
I've read 2 chapters in about an hour and I'm still really enjoying the book... the first chapter seems, for the moment at least, to have been the only long chapter and the others are readable in about half an hour, which I prefer, so that's OK.
Chapter 9 was incredible! I honestly felt like I was there, reading the notes and feeling the dreams and the passion that Charlie had felt... I hope Elanor can pull this off!
Oh yes, the utter mayhem in that chapter was perfectly timed and just generally awesome!
Ooooh... this could be interestingly handled and I'm only half way through the book lol
Up to page 239 now and it's bedtime for me again... this is such an amazing book, I just wish I'd picked it up earlier yesterday!
Wowsers! What an incredibly intense couple of chapters! I've just found out who the stalker is and why and there has been a ruckus which has landed one of them in hospital... there's less than 35 pages left for me to read, so it'll be interesting to see how the author handles tieing up all the lose ends in so few pages!
Wow... what an end to the book and in a way that I really wasn't expecting too. Very much a comforting read that everyone needs to read at least once.
