Are you a murder mystery fan ? Enjoy Non-Fiction ? If so, then today's review is just for you.



Michael Capuzzo'sThe Murder Room: The Heirs of Sherlock Holmes Gather to Solve the World's Most Perplexing Cold Cases [Hardcover](2010)

Review: The Murder Room - Michael Capuzzo- November 2010

Are you a fan of murder mysteries , especially those cold cases - the ones that go unsolved for years on end, the ones that for some apparent reason nobody can get a handle on them ?.
Do you sit in front of the TV and watch TV shows like Criminal Minds, Bones , The Mentalist, Medium and marvel at their crime fighting abilities be it via the mind or forensics or even profiling ? Do you think that the best detective that ever lived and do you idolise Sherlock Holmes ? If you answered yes to all those questions like myself, then The Murder Room is the perfect read for you. I was amazed when I first picked up this book as I was like WOW , a secret murder society named the Heirs of Sherlock Holmes, the best of the Crime fighting business getting together in one room to solve unsolved cases , it would be like a dream come true to watch them all in action . These are the ones who can solve a crime by listening to someone talk , looking at a unrecognizable skull and sketching up a picture that looks uncanny to the victim. Included in The Murder Room are stories of cases that they have solved, how they became who they are today and the turning points in their lives. Also if Crime and Justice is your forte and passion, then you will find this one of the most fascinating and inspirational reads and you won't find anything else like it. The Murder Room I believe should be on the required reading lists for all Criminology papers and studies.
Highly Recommended by The Phantom Paragrapher :)

Review: Steel Princess - Rina Kent

Review: Steel Princess - Book #2 Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent - December 2019 At the end of Book #1, we were left on a cliffhanger of Elsa being pushed into the pool. At the beginning of book #2, she is saved by a newcomer to the school - Knox.  We can see some friendly flirting but nothing more going on between these two, but it riles up Aiden who still has this mindset of "if I can't have her, no-one can" especially since he is supposed to be engaged to Silver Queens. During Book #2 Elsa starts to recall some more memories and goes to Dr.Khan in hopes that he can open her Pandora's box and can restore her full memories of what happened before she was seven years old. We also catch a glimpse during this book of her past and why Aiden King's father blames her for his mother's death and why Aiden considered Elsa a ghost. I liked this book as it was more intense with Elsa's memories and past returning. In Book #2 it is revealed about he...

  Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas - October 2016 As soon as I read Bully by Penelope Douglas, I was in love with this author. So when she released a new one who had my favorite theme of penpals and that whole friend to lovers going on, I knew I had to read it. The book started out with a bit of background where we learned about how Misha and Ryen were placed together in a classroom project penpal program. The pair continues to write to each other right through the year, and then they take it to the next level and continue through the rest of their schooling. Fast forward to high school Misha is in a band and Ryen is out with her friends and they complete a scavenger hunt form. Ryen is not what Misha expected especially from her letters. Tragedy occurs, and Misha turns up at Ryen's school under a fake name. This doesn't go over too well as Ryen is nothing like her letters, in fact, she is as fake as can be and Misha aka Masen hates her, in fact, she...
