Hollow by Shaun Allan

By Emma Fitzgerald -
Thank you @hyggebooktours @singularityspint for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Hollow is psychological horror genre. I do enjoy reading a good horror and this was brilliant. Hollow is not for the faint-hearted. It is brutal and may shock you in some places. The story is very dark and intense all the way through and is from Grace perspective, wanted to see what it’s like to kill someone. This is a book I could not put down, I was hooked until the end, needing to know what was going to happen. The story at fast pace that you will be able to keep up with. I could not help but like Grace there was something about her that I was drawn to and her wife was a lovely person that I was drawn to straight the way. The story is brilliantly written, and I loved Shaun Allan writing style, it was so easy to get into. If you like horror/ psychological books than this book is definitely for you. I found it a breath of fresh air to read something entirely different from the normal books I read. Brilliant, strongly recommend 5 stars. Book Description: It was an experiment, that was all. Kill one person to see how it felt. See the beauty that must be in the moment of death. See if it filled the void within her. The hollow. It didn't. Nor did it the next time. Or the next. Gwen is an ordinary person. Wife to Amanda. Mother to Grace and Alexandra. Suddenly, she is no longer ordinary as she finds herself battling her urges and demons before she hurts those closest to her. But is it already too late?

Thank you @strangelymagic and @neemtreepress for letting me review this book. War of the wind is 220 pages snd is you g adukt fiction. I really enjoyed reading this book and felt like ot held my attention to the end. I really like the characters my favourite where Max, Beanie and Erin. I love the plot with the evil Doctor Asheood and the wind turbines. It was lovely to see Max develop and start to accept his disabiliny and for Max to have the strengh to tell his dad how he felt about him not communicate with him. My heart did go out to dad ehen i found out why. It did make me sad in places but its great read and gripped me. I slso liked hid uncle and twister. I feel young adults will love this story its diffent and its grest suspence.

Thank you, @HeatherJFitt , for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Escape is set in the Mediterranean about John who has lost his wife and is trying to run away from his sadness and Pain but his life starts to change but not for the better. The descriptions in the book were brilliant. It made me feel I was in the Mediterranean with John. I found the story slow at the beginning but after a few chapters the pace sped up and then I could not put it down. I did feel sorry for John due to him seeing happy couples around him. He was surround in greif and drank to get rid of his pain.Then I felt more bad for him when he ended up in the world of drugs. I wanted to shout at him to run. Entertaining story that will keep you gripped to the end. If you like crime mystery this book is for you 4 stars. That is the question John, a trauma doctor, asks himself over and over as he mourns the death of his wife. Lost and alone, he wanders the streets of a glamorous Mediterranean...
