The story is about Bata who is an 11 years old who has a real bad dreams and there secrets in the family. The book well written and there is a great amount of tenision and horror that's flowing through the book. The story has a good plot and this is a very unique story that you will not be able to put down.

The Guests by Adriane Leigh

Image
Thank you @zoolooBT for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. The Guests is psychological thriller and has a gorgeous front cover . The story has six narratives that each have turn for you to getting to know them and them all telling you there side of the story. There's Cole who lives in the area where the guest are staying, Ryleigh is artist but is struggling and Kerrigan her best friend offers her to stay at her private family island. Kerrigan is housewife and has a great life. Then there's Kip and Daniel. I found the first few chapters a bit hard to get into but after that I was off and could not put The Guests down. There is a great amount of suspension and tension running through the book. There are some good twists and turns that I had no clue they were going to happen. I did feel like I was on roll coaster reading this book because there was so much going on that gripped me and didn't know what would happen next. I liked the characters I t...

The Do-Over by Phoebe MacLeod

Thank you @rararesources for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. The Do-over has a fun and bright front cover that draws your attention to the book. This is a romance genre and the story about Thea who dedicated her life to her career as being a lawyer. Then the senior partner dies and Thea realizes that they are not his friend they are just there because they have to be, and then her life starts to change. This is a wonderful and feel good read that you will enjoy reading till the end as I did. I like the characters in the book and how Thea has lovely friends that support her and it's so good when you have this. I thought this was lovely and reminded me of my friends. Furthermore, I thought Theas was so brave due to her realising it was time to make a big change in her life . Likewise, I hope one day I can be as brave as her. A lovely read that is written exceedingly well and is at good pace to keep up with. Engaging read 5 stars. Thea Rogers has dedica...

This is book 1 in the series and this romance genre. I love starting over at Starlight Cottage and could not put it down.

Love & Misdirection by Mari Jane Law

Image
Thank you @hyggebooktours @marijanelaw1 for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. I fell in love with Love & Misdirection straight the way. This is book 3 of the series, but you can read as a standalone as I did. The main characters are Harmony who is fostering baby called Patience and Harmony wants to adopt her, but she has her own problems going on . Then there's James who lost his wife and has a son and has moved across a children's home where Harmony works. This is a beautifully story that tug at my heart and I loved how caring and loving Harmony is to the children she's looking after, and she is so patient. I really connected with her and wanted and was willing her to have a happy ending. I found Love and Misdirection hard to put down. I was attached to the book straight away, and it is very well written that keeps the reader engaged which is brilliant. Fantastic read but you will need tissues 5 stars. Blurb Two people. Two personal tr...
