The Fire Child by S.K. Tremayne
4.0
The fire child was a consistent and pleasant read.
It’s full of suspense and kept me guessing right until the very end. There were times I had to put the book down because I was genuinely scared and didn’t want any nightmarish appearings in my dreams that night.
I didn’t give it 5 stars because I felt the ending was quite rushed. The author built this intricate and suspenseful story throughout the entire book and ended up solving every single question in the last 10 pages. Some of the questions had implausible and unrealistic answers.
David, the husband, has some strange behaviour too that seems to be building up to a tragic or action driven finale that never happens. I was left wondering why did he even go through all that work for nothing. It didn’t make any sense. Rachel, the main character, was likable and somewhat relatable at first but ended up being wish-washy, acting out of character even in her condition.
Overall, it was a really good read. I will definitely pick up more books from this author and give them a try.
