Review: The Stranger Inside - Melanie Marks - May 2012

As usual with trying new authors and buying books from Amazon, you never really know what you are going to expect and whether or not you will enjoy it. That to me was my experience with The Stranger Inside. However, once I started reading it I knew I was in for a ride as the main character Jodi suddenly became Kenzie and I was like hmmm - do we have a case of split personality, is that was this book is about ? We then learn that Jodi's dad has died and she has gone to live with her mum and stepfather. We also discover that something went down three years ago with Jodi and her Stepbrother which weirdly enough , this is the second book in the last week or so that has featured this storyline. The story then starts to take two paths as we see Jodi in love with one guy Sawyer and Kenzie in love with another - Jeremy. This part reminded me a bit of the movie The Host when Wanda/Melanie liked a different guy each but shared the same body etc. What is happening with Jodi and who is Kenzie ? The Stranger Inside of Me was a good read that will have you guessing what is going on and how the dots are connected.

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...

It's time for serial killer time to strike again with Sean Slater's new Detective Jacob Striker novel out titled with the same name as a popular children's game "Snakes and Ladders". Review: Snakes and Ladders - Detective Jacob Striker Book #2 - Sean Slater - March 2012 It's amazing how much a cover can get you to read a book and then you discover, well I actually like this author as I picked up Sean Slater's first book "The Survivor" due to the fact that the cover had a hockey mask and reminded me of Friday the 13th and I really enjoyed the novel as well as the fact it was a school shooting which for some reason I enjoy reading about as it fascinates me ( just to add - I'm not pyschotic LOL) . When I discovered Sean Slater had a new one coming out, I picked it up and was again fascinated and drawn in as he had chosen another angle and field that I am interested in probably due to the fact that my dad works in that industry of mental health...
