  • The Dreaming by Amanda Sheridan

    Intellectually engaging and page-turning read Wow, having really enjoyed Rapid Eye Movement, I had to know what happened next with Jennifer, who was my favourite character from the first installment. This exceeded my expectations. The last book saw Jennifer and Ilan living in Cyprus and this time, picked up in Israel. It was a slow…

  • Forgiving Eve by Kathryn Hewitt

    A solid book that deals with important mental health issues This book follows Eve’s journey at a juvenile correction facility, where the inmates are described as ‘campers’. There she meets Leila and, being much more outgoing than reserved Eve, imposes her friendship upon Eve until the two develop a relationship somewhat akin to dysfunctional siblings.…

  • The Cutting Edge by S.J.Gibbs

    Entertaining book about ice skating and a turbulent life I’d never read a book about ice skating before, and I liked the premise about it helping the main character Rochelle to overcome adversity in her life, so I thought I’d try it. I’m glad I did. It was an entertaining read and the rocky road…

  • Almost Human by Ashleigh Reverie

    Fantastic sci-fi that explores what it is to be human I have to say that the prologue of Almost Human really got me sucked into the story and set up the book with what to expect: drama, tough moral and ethical choices and great sci-fi. It really got me hooked from the outset. I found…

  • The House on Moon Creek Avenue by E Reyes

    Very original and creepy horror This book had all of the elements that I like in a dark, creepy read: a main character who has no choice but to stay in a haunted house, in this case because she inherited the property; vulnerable situation opening her to psychic attacks through escaping an abusive relationship; and…

  • Rapid Eye Movement by Amanda Sheridan

    Unique psychological suspense story Rapid Eye Movement is a psychological thriller following the lives of Jennifer, a British expat living in Cyprus and dating handsome and exciting Ilan and Lucy, married to Charlie and living an ordinary life in the UK. After accidents in which both women suffer head injuries, their lives become connected through…

  • Becoming Ruthless by Rita H Rowe

    A great read with a few unexpected twists This book follows Ruth, a young woman in her mid-twenties, who quickly becomes jaded with love after a string of relationships that don’t work out. After a failed marriage with an emotionally distant husband, a tryst with a commitment-phobe who simply wasn’t compatible with her and a…

  • Between Tricks by Jamie Munn

    Humorous and entertaining read The tagline of this novel is what caught my attention in the first place (She’s half demon but not half bad) though it was the witty writing and fast pacing that kept me reading. Dixie tricks is a vampire hunter. She takes on night clients as well to make ends meet…

  • The Chalk Man by C J Tudor

    Some good parts but my interest fizzled out I liked some aspects of this book: it was good to see the point of view of a working class kid instead of always middle or upper class people as is normally the case in this genre. I engaged with the main character Eddie enough too. However,…

  • The Sphinx by Graham Masterton

    An unusual sort of horror but it works I read this one because I had read other Graham Masterton books and liked them. The story was certainly different to anything else: the main character meets a mysterious woman at a party, is even more enthralled when she plays hard to get, but eventually dates her…
