Broken By Jon Atli Jonasson

By Emma Fitzgerald -
Thank you @Corylus Books for letting me be part of this tour snd reviewing this book. Broken is a crime mystery novel. I absolutely loved this book and hope there is a second book because it left you on a cliffhanger. The story is written exceptionally well and gripped me instantly. It was very difficult to put Broken down due to how good the story and characters are. . I love the characters, they are both a bit of a mess and suit each other well as police partners. I love the chemistry between them as friends, it’s great. The story is about Morgan, who goes missing on a school trip and Rado and Dora trying to find her but have their problems on the side. Brilliant read and engaging start to finish. Strongly recommend. 5 stars. Blurb Two broken cops. One irretrievably damaged and the other an outcast. Dora struggles to cope with life after taking a bullet to the head. Rado is the child of refugees, his career shunted off the tracks due to his family conenctions to an organised crime gang. But they're the only ones available when a troubled teenager vanishes from a school trip, and the trail gets darker the further they pursue it. Broken takes place in a side of Reykjavik no visitor would ever want to see, as the mismatched pair tread on all the wrong toes in the search for the missing youngster. This takes place against the backdrop of a vicious vendetta and price on Dora's head. A brutal turf war embroils Rado's family as he and Dora follow the threads of corruption higher and higher, to the top of the exclusive apartment block on the outskirts of the city.

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.

The Pawnshop of Stolen Dreams is for young adults between 9-13 years, which will keep them entertained till the end. The story is dark and well-written.

Blurb In a strange little village called Witchetty Hollow, eleven-year-old Florizel is the first to run into the curious visitors who've come to open a brand new Daydream Delicatessen and sack-baby factory. At first, it seems the daydream confection and cheap sack children are the best things that could have happened to the poor folk of the Hollow - after all, who has the money to rent their child from Storkhouse Services these days? But after a few weeks, Florizel starts to notice something odd happening ...
