panI loved Bring Me Back by the author, but this one is very disappointing. The writing style is still up to par, but the main character was irritatingly passive, & the plot was so obvious, I figured it all out after 2 chapters & only read to the end to see if I was right about everything. 2⭐

pickAn intriguing & clever fictional explanation for the true-life disappearance of Agatha Christie, who went missing for 10 days in 1926. I see that this book received mixed reviews, but I rather enjoyed it. I've had this on my shelf for several years, & now wished I had read it earlier. I rate it 3.5🌟

so-soThis was an average read. It is refreshing to see an author include an MC with a disability but not make the character reliant upon that as their entire character. None of the characters are particularly nice. Overall the pace & plot were okay but the characters need distinguishing from each other more. 3⭐
My thanks to NetGalley & publishers, Avon Books UK, for the opportunity to read an ARC.

so-soThe second book in the duology is again, a very dark book with lots of cruel death & grotesque imagery. I read it because I wanted to know how the story ended, if Nessa managed to survive & what happened with her & Anto. Anto, now there's a big disappointment who betrays Nessa in the worst way. Overall, I'm wanted to read this duology but I'm in no rush to ever re-read it. 3⭐
