A huge thank you to the author, Flame Tree Press and Random Things Tours for allowing me to be part of the blog tour.
Synopsis:
Lorelai Palumbo’s life is turned upside down when a sinister group called the Cabal begin to harass her constantly. The Cabal accuse her of committing unspeakable crimes in the past which she now has to pay for but the only thing is, she doesn’t know what she is supposed to have done. Now the Cabal are tearing her life apart piece by piece, torturing her mentally and physically. The only hope she has to salvage her life is to atone to what the Cabal thinks she has done, whatever that is.
Review:
It was the book description that pulled me right in, I enjoy a good horror and I like books to affect me, so I hoped this would give me the on edge feeling I craved. The red figures as the Cabal intrigued me, I wanted to uncover who they are. I enjoy dark reads so I was eager to get stuck in.
The story definitely kicks off with a bang, you are thrown right into the story. From the very start to finish, there is action around every corner, keeping you on your toes. It was also evident from the start that the author is a very descriptive writer, who can really create an atmosphere.
I found the story like to be intriguing and I was interested to see how things would come together. I liked how I generally couldn’t call what would happen next and I found myself quite surprised by the story line, it was not what I expected at all, I generally though this would be mainly a cult read so I was pleasantly surprised. I also loved the fact that this is unlike any book I have read before.
I generally found myself lost and absorbed in the story at times. The story is told in two worlds/dimensions and although I did prefer it when told in the real world, I did find the story easy to follow. What I will also say is Tim is very ruthless with his characters so it is best to not get attached to anyone!
I enjoyed how dark the story got in places and I could feel the tenseness at times. Some of the scenes did get quite intense especially the Garden of Anguish and although I enjoyed this intenseness, I could imagine it would make squeamish readers uncomfortable at times. In places it was quite brutal and horrific, doing what a horror should do so if you’re planning on reading this do not expect a world where things become all well and good, that is not Tim’s style.
After reading Your Turn to Suffer, I had to take a little break before picking up my next book, just to digest what I had read which shows to me how good the writing style of the author is!
