One Way or Another by Colleen Coleman
My review The book started with a bang, like one of the TV series where Katie, the last on her luck cook, sees the advert that Chef Jean-Michel is searching for the grand chef for his new restaurant, and she applies for it. Imagine the next scene to be a total Masterchef-y with elimination rounds, … Continue reading One Way or Another by Colleen Coleman
Guilt by Amanda Robson
My review I delved into this book thinking it to be a thriller which would remain with me for days. The premise of the book was chilling; 2 sisters, twins, one dead, killed by her own sister. How, when, why? As usual, it is always a man who is the trigger, but in this, he … Continue reading Guilt by Amanda Robson

Like Cats and Dogs by Alexis Stanton
My review Who can resist true love and everything that comes stringed along with it, from the beautiful strains of Vivaldi to the hip hop peppy beats of Rihanna. The love can travel along the rhythms of music to flow along the rhythms of the hearts, binding them together, forever. Aah... That's the power of … Continue reading Like Cats and Dogs by Alexis Stanton

But change can be … Continue reading Winds of Change
The House Swap by Rebecca Fleet
My review This was a family drama of sorts jacketed as a thriller. The story has 2 time lines with 3 versions. One was way in the past in the year 2013, where the main character Caroline, goes through turbulence in her marriage, with her prescription pill addict husband and so has an affair. The … Continue reading The House Swap by Rebecca Fleet
A Note of Appreciation
I write my reviews based on the emotions that flow into me, while reading the book. I dip my pen into the well of those emotions and start writing. I have no idea what triggers those emotions or the review. It can be a word, a sentence, or a page. Then there are few books … Continue reading A Note of Appreciation

White Lies by Lucy Dawson
My review The book started with a bang (literally), a doctor (ahem ahem) Alex goes for girls' weekend to Ibiza to relax and enjoy. What happens in Ibiza should have remained in Ibiza! But unfortunately a night of fun, dance, drinks, and sex (a one-night stand) with a young man Jonathan soon gets exposed. Alex, … Continue reading White Lies by Lucy Dawson

All … Continue reading Another Mother by Amanda James
Skin Deep by Liz Nugent
My review I really don't know how to review this book. I have read this book with a wide eyed fascination, in complete disbelief, at the way the main character was and the actions taken by her in her life, all selfish ones. There was no empathy, no tenderness, she almost seemed empty. A sociopath … Continue reading Skin Deep by Liz Nugent
The Forgotten Ones by Steena Holmes
My review What an amazing thrilling book; it kept me gripped till the end. Just 3 main characters, their memories and secrets with one granddaughter caught in the center of it all, wanting to know the truth. But what is truth? A grandfather David who is dying, his version of the past, his view of … Continue reading The Forgotten Ones by Steena Holmes
Father Figure by James J. Cudney @jamescudney4
My review Author James J. Cudney has done it again with his second book Father Figure. His debut Watching Glass Shatter was a great family saga, and I wondered if he could re-create the magic with his words. But this time, he has surpassed his own debut. The story follows the lives of two women … Continue reading Father Figure by James J. Cudney @jamescudney4
