  I have heard so much about the Sun down hotel that I really wanted to read it but I was a little disappointed it was not as scary as I thought it was going to be and it was not as gripping either. The story is told by VilV in 1982 and Carly who her niece in the present day. Viv works at the sun down motel and weird things start to happen and she comes obsessed and starts to investigate things. Carly comes to Fell wanting to found out what happened to her aunt and she starts to work at the sun down motel. Carly makes friends and starts her own investigation. I give this book 4 stars

  This is first time I read Nora Roberts book. I really enjoyed the characters but I felt like I got bit lost with what the plot was about. I ended up skipping some pages just to get past the chatting bits with her friends. I would say it had much suspense in it. I felt like the story was going on to much. I think the story could be bit shorter. I still would read more of Nora Roberts books but I was bit disappointed with this one. Thank you NetGalley and eARC for providing me with a copy of this book

  ** spoiler alert **  I was really looking forward to the book because I love the film but I found there where a few things the same in the book. The story was about two girls growing up with there grandmothers . Sally falls in love and has two children but something happens and she moved away. To try give her children life without witch craft. Gilles moves away but comes back when she’s in trouble. Wanting Sally help and the story goes on about how they all get on. I enjoyed the book but I like the film better. I give this book 4 stars.

  My daughter choose this book for herself to read. She liked the description of the book due to her being interested in mystery book and the cover really appealed to her. Jane Austen Investigates, The Abbey Mystery, is a lovely book for young girls to read . Jane sister gets hurt in accident and her dog joins her on the journey Southmoor Abbey. Jane is a really lovely character that you warm to straight the way. The themes of the book sibling relationships-and friendship. Thank you Netgalley for letting me read this book. I give this book 5 stars.

  I really enjoyed the book. I thought it was a bit slow to begin with and wonder why everyone was talking about it but I understood as I got further in the book. The story about Evelyn who tells Monique reporter about her life being famous , her marriages and the love of her life. There was few twists in the book . I did not see coming. I would highly recommend the book. It’s about fame, love , loss, betrayal and money. I give this book 5 stars

  I thought this book was ok but I felt like it did not need to be that long. The story is about Freya and she just started a new job and met Jay. Someone gets murdered and the story is round leading up to the murder and after the murder. Freya has not had easy time at her new job being bullied and hardly anyone talking to her there. The story was also so told by Isla who was reporting the murder and wanted to get to the bottom of what had happened. I felt the story was a bit slow and I was not  really gripped by it but it was ok read. I give this book 3 stars.

  I really enjoyed Stacy story and it made me what to buy a camper van and going travelling. This story is about loss, separation, spirituality and founding her self. It was great to read about her experiences on camping in her van . I felt like I was there with her. It was nice seeing the photos of her trip and the photos of the van when she brought it and when she kept adding things to the van to make it more liveable and comfortable. I think she was a very brave lady travelling on her own. The things she talked about was stuff I was interesting in yoga, nature , beach , massages and spiritual. Thank you NetGalley for letting me read this book.     I give this book 5 stars

  This story is about world war 2 and is historical fiction. I found the book hard to get in to first took me while to get in to it but when I did it was gripping and heartbreaking what Leisel and the Jewish family go through. The story is told my Leisel. I never really liked historical fiction but I read a few books now and this one and really enjoyed them but heartbreaking what happened. Thant you NetGalley for letting me review this book. I give this book 5 stars

  This is fantasy book about a man and a women. Which is about vampire tale. This is a very dark book but I love stories about vampires . The story is about love , identity and strength. Good read. Thank you NetGalley for letting me read this book

  I really enjoyed Spilt and did not want it to end . I love the characters Ally she had just broken up with her girlfriend and Jeremy just broke up with his boyfriend they both were going through a bad  breakup and it’s lovely they where there for each other through it and became best friends. I am really glad what happened at the end . I wanted things to work out for Ally and to bump into Jo again. This is heartwarming and funny book. I totally recommend this book. Thank you NetGalley and Laura Kay. I will develop reading her books again. I give this book 5 stars 

  This book was not I expected. There was lots of information about Lewis Carroll and his relationship with Alice and information about the real Alice and her family.. I found it really hard to get into and skipped a lot of the pages only read what I found the interesting . I definitely recommend this book of fans of Lewis Carroll and Alice in wonderland. I really like the book cover and very eye catching which is the reason why I wanted to read it. Thank you NetGalley and Angela Youngman I give this book 3stars 

  This was beautiful story written in poetry. The words where lovely and meaningful. I love how she written about herself growing and comparing herself to a sunflower. I loved the way she described everything and it was so easy to follow the story. I could not put it down and read it in few hours. You really felt what she was going through. I strongly recommend this book to other people. This story is about love loss, rejection and hope. Thank you NetGalley and unLYSHed for letting me read this lovely poetry.   I love the drawings as well in the book they where beautiful  I give this book 5 stars 

  This was the first book I read by Matt Wilson and this was really gripping book . I will definitely be reading more of his books. I could not read this book quick a enough. The story is about Susan daughter who was raped and murder and her mum wants justice for her death. Thank you NetGalley and Matt Witten I give this book 4 stars

 First  of all just wanted to say wow this book was not what I expected.. The murder s where very brutal. This story is about a lodge in Scotland round Christmas time. Guests go to the hotel and events happen and a police man went up to investigate but the snow was thick and he had to stay there with them until the snow went. This is horror story and the things that happened I did not see coming. I was shocked what happened to a few of the characters in the book who I liked. I think this book could been a bit shorter and I liked how you got to find out background on the four characters. Thank you NetGalley and Chris Coppel for letting me read this book.

  This book is a family drama. I read this in one whole day. It was gripping and I could not put it down. I have heard everyone talking about this book which made me want to read. It left me at the end wanting more. I wanting to know what had happened it leaves you on bit of cliffhanger. This story tells you about Blythe how she is as mum about her own experience with her mum. Which you get flashbacks to Blythe childhood and her mums. This story is very dark and is upsetting in places. My heart really went out for Blythe due to the issues she was dealing with and being a mum. The chapters are very short and as soon as you read the first page you are drawn into the story. I recommend this book. I give this book 5 stars

  This is lovely heartwarming love story. I read this in a day. It was also lovely to read book based at the seaside which was a nice escape. The story is written from two points of view Jake the journalist and Laurie have that runs cute coffee shop next to her mum and dad shop. It’s a lovely community feel. Every one gets on with each other and knows everything about each other which sometimes is not good. Someone seen a mermaid and all of sudden the seaside resort is getting very busy due to them wanted to see the mermaid. This is where Jake comes to investigate it but he tells people he’s writing a book. I can’t wait for the second book. It was beautiful written and I give it 5 stars. Thank you NetGalley and Sarah Bennett for letting me read this book.

  ** spoiler alert **  This book was picked by my book club. I really liked this book and it was easy read. I felt a lot of empathy for Kasia and what was going on in her life. The life she thought she had was real but was actually a lie. This story is historical fiction and talks about how Jewish people where treated by Hitler in the war. When the book ended I was disappointed because I wanted to know what happens to her next. I was left wondering how she got on in her next journey going back to Poland. I give this book 5 stars

  I really enjoyed this book to the put I could not put it down. I really enjoyed the style of the book and how it was written. The book about loss, family and friendship. I definitely recommend a read. I felt like I got to know both characters really well because each chapter was about Jill and Mandy and you get to found out there story. I give this book 5 stars  

 I  found this book a bit slow and hard to get into at first but as I got further in to the book it started to get better and when little bee and Sarah started to tell you how they met and what happened to them to find each other. This story is sad due to what happens to them both. I give this book 4 stars

  I give this book 5 Stars ** spoiler alert **  I really enjoyed this love story about two characters who have crossed past many times but not realised it. It’s lovely how fate is pulling them together. I definitely recommend this book. I read this on the kindle which I brought for 99p. Keep your eyes out for these bargains on Amazon. 

  I like Lucy writing style. This is the first time I read her books and I must admit she kept me thinking all the way throughout making my own predictions. It is page turner. I wanted to get to the end to find out what happened. I definitely recommend this book. I am looking forward to reading her other books. I give this book 5 stars

 5 stars I have never read any books by this author  and on facebook I kept seeing people saying how good her books are. I have started of with Nightgale and I loved it. At first I thought it was bit slow to get into but as I got further into the book I could not put it down. I  found this book really intresting learning about the war in France and reading the two sisters points of view how there life was effected during the war.  I thought this book was sad and it made me cry. I highly recommend the Nightingale and I give this book 5 stars. I will be definitely be reading more of her books.

  ** spoiler alert ** This is lovely story but sad that two people can’t be together. I felt like I new the characters and was routing for them and for them to get better from CF . I enjoyed the style of writing it was easy to get into. It is definitely worth reading. 4 STARS

 I liked how this book was written from 10 year old point of views. This book is beautifully written and I love the author style of writing you get a real feel for the characters. It is heartwarming and sad story and a your girl and her next door neighbour who has her own problems but they find each other and give comfort to one another which is lovely. This book is about being on your own , obsessions grief and love. I highly recommend this book to other people. I will definitely be reading more books from this author. Thank you NetGalley and Emily Spurr  

This is the first time I have read a book by this author. At first I got confused who Marian and Constance was but it did not take me to long to work out who they where and how they where connected. The thin place had lots of different themes running through the book, child abuse, loss, belonging and animal abuse. This book concentrate on three people telling there stories from different points of view. This book has mystery and suspense running through it. I did enjoy reading this book but wanted to get to the end to see what happens. I did not see the ending coming and I didn’t realise Overtown house is a real place it has made me what to do some research on it. I give this book 4 stars. Thank you NetGalley and Amazon publishing for providing me with digital copy.
