Her Last Goodbye

Review: Her Last Goodbye - Rick Mofina - January 2022


How well do we know our partners? Do we know all about their family history, lives, loves, and hates? If your partner went missing, would skeletons be falling out of the closet? For Greg, he gets home late one night and heads to bed. His wife is out at her book club and Greg expects her soon. He falls asleep and awakes early in the AM - he reaches his hand out and Jennifer's side is still empty. He phones his wife and no answer. Where can she be? This starts our mystery of Her Last Goodbye as Greg searches and contacts everyone he can think of as his wife Jennifer has vanished into thin air.  Greg calls his Dad and sister and then the Police. Over the majority of the novel, we read as Greg's life is pulled apart as the detectives are convinced he is hiding something and is the number #1 suspect. What he doesn't realize though is that Jennifer's past has come back to bite her in the form of a wind chime. When Jennifer was eight years old, both her parents died in a house fire and now secrets about that time are being unearthed.  I have to admit, that this book was different as it was more focused on Jennifer's family and that side of the fence rather than her experience missing and being kidnapped. I did feel the ending was a little rushed and the bit with the DNA near the end could have been expanded on a bit more.  I have to admit that this book reminded me of Gone Girl which is a novel that I disliked and thought was overhyped. However, if you were one of those millions who loved Gone Girl as it did win the best thriller - what were you readers thinking? then you will love Rick Mofina's new psychological thriller "Her Last Goodbye" .

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
