VBT# The Hypnotist - MJ Rose

-


Today's VBT# guest is an author that I am familiar with and her books are actually in the library in New Zealand where I work - I bring you author MJ Rose and her latest novel "The Hypnotist".

The Hypnotist (The Reincarnationist)
Review: The Hypnotist- The Reincarnationist Series Book #3 - MJ Rose - April 2011
Are you a fan of MJ Rose's Books ? Have you read The Reincarnationist and The Memorist , the first two books in the series?
As a fan of the previous two novels, when I heard that a third was released , I thought I just have to read it and I am glad I did , it was like her others filled with theories, suspense and action and for me personally as I have a huge fondness of art - I enjoyed The Hypnotist as it features stolen art division. I found that the first two novels in the series could be read as a stand-alone but reading The Hypnotist , I think in order to understand the tale a bit more , it will pay to have read the others otherwise you may be sitting there going huh , I'm confused :).
In The Hypnotist, Special Agent Lucian is back and he is continuing on his search to find the list of Memory Tools that Malachi wants and covets so badly. Along the journey, we read as we discover that somebody else is breaking into the art galleries and slashing to bits famous and irreplaceable paintings and will continue to do so until he gets his hands on the latest installment to the art gallery - the Greek Statue of Hypnos (hence the word Hypnotist) which is said that whoever owns it will have paranormal and supernatural powers. The novel also contains a series of flashbacks to Lucian's first love and her death Solange as we discover that Solange's niece shares an uncanny resemblance. Read as we wonder whether Lucian's flashbacks will get in the way of solving the crime and will he become the next victim ?
Find out in "The Hypnotist" by MJ Rose and a funny fact that I just read and have only put two and two together was that a friend was telling me about this awesome new TV show called Past Life that's playing in America , and Ive just clicked that of course I will enjoy it as it's based on MJ Rose's books :).

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...
