This was such a different read. I think the main reason I liked … Continue reading This story starts after the world ends: The Last by Hanna Jameson

Today it's my stop on Will Carver's Good Samaritans blog tour and I am pretty excited to talk about this fabulously dark and disturbing thriller!

When Old Friends Aren’t Good Friends Anymore: Perfect Liars
No risks could be taken. If someone, most likely nosy Lila, ended up in her en- suite and saw one it would be too much to bear. It was lucky that Charlie had been at work. He found the way she behaved around Nancy and Lila odd enough already. He couldn’t understand why she wouldn’t … Continue reading When Old Friends Aren’t Good Friends Anymore: Perfect Liars
We are all Melmoths, We are all cogs in the wheel: Damned to Witness
If you ask me to review Melmoth in one sentence, I will say: Melmoth was a punch in the face. For me it was not an easy read. I felt like I was peeling something, during reading it, layer by layer, to find the CORE underneath. When I undressed Melmoth I was looking at myself, … Continue reading We are all Melmoths, We are all cogs in the wheel: Damned to Witness
Career goals gone wrong: The Temp by Michelle Frances
Hello everyone! It's been a busy 10 days for me, and tumbleweeds were rolling on the blog. I had my lovely friend visiting from Italy, had a terribly hectic week at work, my cleaner gone to holiday (lucky her!) so had to take care of the house myself and I have been crawling to bed … Continue reading Career goals gone wrong: The Temp by Michelle Frances
A suffocating father-daughter relationship: Ghost Wall by Sarah Moss
If there was a contest of writing, that will require telling a story using the least amount of words, this book would win it this year. A borderline novella, Ghost Wall is a powerful story that could easily be read in one sitting. I loved the idea behind this novel. The sacrificed bog girls, whose … Continue reading A suffocating father-daughter relationship: Ghost Wall by Sarah Moss

The Dreamers by Karen Thompson Walker
I sometimes do gambling with a book. I pick it up, never heard of it before, never heard of the author too, but somehow it propagates an energy to me and I get tempted to read it. The Dreamers was one successful gamble on NetGalley- I am so glad I requested it. Now dear reader, … Continue reading The Dreamers by Karen Thompson Walker
Michael Crichton’s Sphere : Deep into ocean and human psychology
“Terror can fill any space” I've been craving some old-school science fiction for a while now, and got my eyes on Sphere on audible's 2 in 1 sale. I must say I've never read a single book from Crichton so far. I am amazed how many block buster movies are made out of Crichton's imaginative … Continue reading Michael Crichton’s Sphere : Deep into ocean and human psychology
You Were Made For This by Michelle Sacks
There are no greater cruelties than the ones married people inflict upon one another. I've never read Michelle Sacks before and I requested this book on NetGalley after instinctively getting effected by the cover. Looked intriguing. I am glad I read this book! This review contains mild spoilers. I've read the book without knowing anything … Continue reading You Were Made For This by Michelle Sacks
One house, two women, plenty of secrets: The Sudden Departure of the Frasers
I listened The Sudden Departure of the Frasers by Louise Candlish on Audible and really enjoyed it. I think I am becoming a fan of Louise Candlish. Having read the second book from her I really love the way she writes, enjoy her slow burning plots transforming into psychological suburban dramas. Joe and Christy Davenport … Continue reading One house, two women, plenty of secrets: The Sudden Departure of the Frasers
