Review: The Thinnest Air - Minka Kent - July 2018 January has been the month for thrillers and also I am finding cleaning my Kindle of the older titles that had been sitting there for a while as I am finding for certain that the older books are the ones I have been enjoying more than recent releases. One of my favorite thriller writers that I have seemed to enjoy most of her published books bar one is Minka Kent. The Thinnest Air starts with Greer's sister Meredith falling in love with a wealthier man Andrew. Greer has never really liked him. Meredith is also Andrew's second wife and we do see that Andrew has got a bit of a temper and controlling spirit, but Meredith loves him or so she thought. We also read in this book, that Meredith has a stalker and this leads her to meet the Detective and the pair strike up an affair and close relationship. One day Meredith vanishes and doesn't come home. Where has she disappeared too and why has she gone? Enter Greer who heads to th...

Review: The Watcher Girl - Minka Kent - May 2021 A thriller author that I have been enjoying is Minka Kent and The Watcher Girl was another great twisted story by her. The book starts with Grace who was adopted as a child and felt that she never fit in with her family, especially since her adoptive mother ended up in prison for murder and that she learned that her nanny as a child under a pretense there to take Grace as her own. The Watcher Girl is a sequel tale but can be read as a stand-alone as I haven't read the first but was able to catch the gist of the story. In this book, Grace has returned home after eight years away and has the feeling and desire to make things right with Sutton. However, when she gets to her hometown and meets Sutton's new wife and daughter, things are a bit off as it looks like Sutton is abusing Campbell. As the book goes on, we read as this weird obsession starts to form with Grace and her saviour complex and Campbell with her abused wife complex, ...
