Review: The Locked Door - Freida McFadden - June 2021

This book starts with us meeting Dr. Nora Davies drinking in a bar when she is watching Jeopardy on the bar TV and it asks who was known as the serial killer "The Handyman". The answer is Aaron Nierling - we then learn that Nora's father is Aaron and that when she was eleven years old, she discovered her father was killing females in their basement. Nora turned her dad into the police when she discovered the body of Mandy. Twenty-Six years later, Nora is busy working as a surgeon and living her life under her new identity. That is until one of her patients turns up dead in the same manner as her father killed. The thing is though, he is stuck in prison and that means there must be a copycat out there. What happens though when the evidence is pointing towards Nora being the killer and following in her father's footsteps yet she's innocent? Who is trying to set her up? Is it her past lover Brady who has come back into her life or one of her disgruntled patients? I have to admit, I didn't see the twist coming in this book when the actual killer was revealed. However, I did feel that the ending was rushed and I felt like it could have been fleshed out a bit. Overall, though The Locked Door was a good thriller read and this was the second Freida McFadden I have read I look forward to reading more of her books.

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...
