Anything You Do Say by Gillian McAllister
3.0
3.5⭐️ I enjoyed this book but it wasn’t gripping! The writing style was engaging and I loved the idea behind it! Really makes you think about what you’d do. In my opinion it’s not as good as some of Gillian’s other books but I would still recommend!
One Little Mistake by Emma Curtis
3.0
3.5⭐️
This story was slightly far fetched, in my opinion. It started of slow and then exploded in the second half and was quite predictable. However it was written in a style I enjoyed and it was easy to read!

After the Crash by Michel Bussi
4.0
I really enjoyed this book and the way it was written.
The premise behind it was very interesting and there were certainly some twists and turns and I did not see the ending coming...

Needful Things by Stephen King
3.0
I liked this book as it was very original. The first SK I’ve ever read and I picked a big one. Took me AGES to finish. I did like his style but I’d seem to go on longer than it had too?
Enjoyable but I won’t be re-reading anytime soon. Think I might wait a little before picking up another one of his...

Three Things About Elsie by Joanna Cannon
4.0
A story with very funny moments, some also very sad moments and some wonderful quotes (which are now amongst my favourites). There were characters I really warmed too and a mystery that kept the pages turning!
A great book which I would recommend!

Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro
5.0
I borrowed this book without knowing too much about the story and boy did I love it.
I can’t really say anything without giving it away. Just read it.

A Whole Life by Robert Seethaler

2.5⭐️
This book was ok, it was a little slow and too descriptive for me. I found myself skip reading chapters!
I’ll possibly try again in a few years and hopefully be able to connect with the character more!

The A.B.C. Murders by Agatha Christie
4.0
This is the first Agatha Christie book I’ve read and I was pleasantly surprised! I really enjoyed it!
Loved the characters and the writing style, so easy to read! I did not see the mini twist at the end coming either!
Would recommend!

Behind Blue Eyes (Stockholm Murders #1) by C.S. Duffy

3.5⭐️
I was gifted this book In exchange for an honest review!
Overall I enjoyed it, it had a good story and good development. I grew to have strong feelings towards all the characters (for better or worse).
It was a little slow to build up in the beginning and the very ending was a little too quick for my liking! I’m not entirely satisfied with how it was all fired up! However I didn’t predict the killer, which is always good!
There were some minor spelling omissions which I picked up on but overall the book was good. I read it fairly quickly and I enjoyed it!

After watching the film I really wanted to love this book. Unfortunately I didn’t and I’m not sure why?!
