Review: Promise not to tell - Jennifer McMahon - April 2007

Do you like reading psychological fiction ? Love reading thrillers ? One of my favourite authors for targeting this type of genre is Jennifer McMahon. As all her characters go through a tragic incident and then another one of the characters will have developed an illness. In Promise not to tell , we meet Kate Cypher who is now forty-one years old and has returned home to her small hometown in order to help nurse her mother who has developed Alzheimer's Disease. Horror tales of a killer come back for revenge known as The Potato Girl has plagued the town and now someone is killing young girls once again.  Thirty years ago, Kate's best friend Del was murdered - she was who the kids teased and called The Potato Girl and her murder went unsolved as they never found the killer. Has someone ventured back into town , now that Kate is back to get revenge for Del's murder or has the killer returned to finish what he started ? 
Promise Not to Tell was a fast paced novel that will keep readers intrigued from the very first page , the other thing to keep aware of when reading this novel is that it flips between the incident with Del in the 1970's to the present time in 2000's. 
This is a must read for all those who love their psychological thrillers.

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...
