The Day We Died (Sydney Booth #1)

Review: The Day We Died - Book #1 Sydney Booth Series - Wendy Owens - June 2022

After reading the previous two books published by Wendy Owens, I was excited to read this book as I enjoyed the other two. The Day We Died starts with Rachel being 10 years old and her brother Patrick is 3 years old and her mother is pregnant with their sister Carrie. One day Rachel and Patrick arrive home to the police. Turns out their life is about to change forever as her dad is arrested for multiple murders. The book then jumps forward to the present time and the characters have changed their names Rachel is Sydney Booth and Patrick is Michael. Their little sister Carrie, they never got to meet as she was adopted at birth. Sydney and her family have done everything to hide away from their old lives and to be new e.g the title - The Day We Died. The thing is though as Sydney is about to discover working as a CSI investigator - a new serial killer has hit their town and they are replicating her father's murders right down to the shade of lipstick. Has someone discovered Sydney's secret? Are old wounds about to be reopened? This was a good read and I had inklings about who the killer would be and when revealed, I was correct. I am now looking forward to Sydney's next book about her job in the FBI. I also am hoping we may get to meet Carrie as that would be awesome for Sydney to have some more family around after everything that happened in The Day We Died. If you love murder mysteries and tv shows like CSI and Criminal Minds, then The Day We Died by Wendy Owens is the thriller for you.

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
