Review: The Daughter - T.M Logan - March 2025

T.M. Logan has mastered the art of taking a parent's worst nightmare and spinning it into a slow-burning, psychological thriller that leaves you reeling. The Daughter is no exception. This gripping tale draws readers into the life of Lauren, a mother who sets out on a seemingly ordinary trip to collect her daughter, Evie, from university—only to find that Evie has vanished without a trace.

The story kicks off with a sense of unease that steadily builds as Lauren discovers that Evie hasn’t been seen for weeks. The situation spirals into a desperate search, revealing secrets and lies that make Lauren question everything she thought she knew about her daughter.

At its core, The Daughter delves into themes of trust, family, and the lengths we’ll go to for those we love. TM Logan’s slow-paced narrative allows readers to savor every clue and red herring, creating an immersive experience. While the plot may take its time to unfold, the payoff is well worth the wait, with a series of twists that will leave you questioning everything until the final pages.

Drug trafficking forms a central thread of the mystery, adding a gritty, real-world edge to the story. As Lauren digs deeper, she’s pulled into a dark and dangerous world that forces her to confront not only external threats but also her own fears and vulnerabilities as her ex-husband comes back into the picture.

 The pacing may not be for everyone as this follows the famous slow-paced thrillers that are synoymous with UK Fiction, especially if you prefer fast-moving thrillers, but those who enjoy a slow-burn suspense will find themselves completely hooked.

Perfect for fans of Shari Lapena and Clare Mackintosh, this is one thriller you won’t want to miss.

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...
