The Secrets of Cedar Farm

Review: The Secrets of Cedar Farm - Carissa Ann Lynch - January 2022

One of my favorite auto-read authors is Carissa Ann Lynch. I started reading her books years ago with Have you Seen This Girl? back in 2015 and from that day on, I have made sure to read all her books that she has published since as each one is just as good as the previous book especially if you love thrillers. In The Secrets of Cedar Farm, it started with Norah Campbell heading to her aunt’s place to reunite with her daughter. Norah's fiancé Finn died of an overdose and this caused Norah to head to rehab so that she could start a new life for her daughter Gemma. Whilst in Rehab, Gemma went to live with Norah's mother's sister Sarah and her husband Francis. When Norah gets there though, things are very strange and off-putting as Norah can't spend any time with her daughter alone and they are acting as if Norah is intruding on their perfectly created life and also Gemma is acting odd. During the book, we read as Norah is being gaslighted by Sarah and Francis and taught that she is a bad mother. During this time, Norah decides to do some recon of her own as she knows something is up and what she will find is a body. What will happen though when she tries to go to the authorities? Who will they believe? Francis and Sarah - pillars of the community or Norah - a former drug addict. Can Norah get to the bottom of the strange things happening and save her daughter and in doing so, may have to make a phone call to the one person she never thought she would need to rely on. I liked the twist of this book as I had a feeling, but I did get a surprise when the actual killer was revealed. If you love thrillers and skeletons not only in the closet but also the ground, then you will Carissa Ann Lynch's The Secret of Cedar Farm.

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...
