Review: I Did Warn Her

I Did Warn Her by Sian Gilbert
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Another great read from Sian Gilbert.

Such a twisty story, that kept me turning those pages, wanting to know what would happen next.

With great characters some I loved some I disliked, but they all brought something special to the story.

Review: Whatever It Takes

Whatever It Takes by Rachel Abbott
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow the 12th book in this series and the return of some of my favourite people. (this can be read as a standalone).

What an emotional rollercoaster this book is. With all the usual grit and heart of a Rachel Abbott book, I was hooked back in straight away and couldn't put the book down, I just had to know what happened!

Review: The Midnight Feast

The Midnight Feast by Lucy Foley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Another solid locked location mystery.
some great twists and brilliant location setting that I've come to expect and love from Lucy Foley along with some likeable and not so likeable characters made for an interesting story that kept me reading to the end.

Review: Into the Fire

Into the Fire by G.D. Wright
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Release Date: 5th June 2025

HE RUNS INTO THE FLAMES A HERO. HE EMERGES FROM THE ASHES A SUSPECT.


GD Wright has done it again, with his second novel. What a punch of a book this is!

I love how this book evokes strong emotions and keeps you hooked, but in a totally different way to After the Storm.

When Steve goes into a fire and comes out a hero, he struggles to come to terms with this new title and all the attention that comes with it, but the tides quickly turn when he comes out a suspect...

G.D Wright is the master of getting to the heart of a matter in a really human way, with so much raw emotion, I felt it all as I read along and this book will also stay with me. What a triumph of a book, that isn't straight forward nor predictable.

I'm excited to see where book 3 goes.

Thank you NetGalley and the publishers for this ARC.

Review: Bitterfrost

Bitterfrost by Bryan Gruley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Release Date: 1st April 2025

Feisty defence attorney Devyn Payne faces off against veteran detective Garth Klimmek as they work to solve a vicious double homicide in their small, icy town of Bitterfrost.

When two out of towners turn up dead after causing a scene in the local bar and the local Zamboni driver Jimmy Baker wakes up with no memory of what happened after he left the bar, he becomes the prime suspect.

This is a fast paced book, that hooked me really quickly into the story and I really enjoyed the characters, I believe this is the first in a series, so I can't wait to read more and see how these characters develop.

Review: Whiteout

Whiteout by R.S. Burnett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Release Date: 11th February 2025

What a debut thriller of a book! I was sold from the synopsis. I just didn't want to put this book down.

Rachael is persuaded by her old boss Guy to head back to Antarctica to carry out some vital research, but after months alone, with no human contact, except a radio message that a nuclear war has broken out, Rachael fears the worst for her husband and daughter who she left behind and is battling to survive a harsh winter storm, when things start going from bad to worse.

Is Rachael the only survivor? Will she survive a winter storm in Antarctica? Has she got the resilience and ability to survive?

This is an atmospheric and gritty, page turner. the writing is brilliant and I felt like I was there with Rachael witnessing it all unfold, with clever use of flashbacks to give a fuller picture as to what led Rachael to this point, you can't help but root for her.

There are so many twists and turns, you don't see coming and catch you off guard, but keep you hooked to find out what's going to happen next.

From the premise to the execution this is hands down one of my favourite reads of the year!

Thank you NetGalley and the publishers Crooked Lane for this ARC.

Review: Serial Killer Support Group

Serial Killer Support Group by Saratoga Schaefer
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Release Date: 18h March 2025

I really loved the concept of this book and the read didn't disappoint, I'm not sure if I was supposed to like the characters, but they were well rounded and human, and had an engaging quality about them, that I was fascinated spending time with them and loved the dynamics of the relationships.

Thank you NetGalley and the publishers for this ARC.
