Review: She Died Famous -Kyle Rutkin

Review: She Died Famous - Kyle Rutkin - July 2019 This was an interesting read as I opened it and was presented with a book that was written in different forms as it had blog posts, magazine articles, and interviews as well as police interrogation. It also had a book within a book situation going on as the lines between reality blurred with fiction and in the end, readers are left wondering what is happening and what is fact and what is fiction. The book also creates a narrative that leads the reader to discover the truth about what happened. She Died Famous starts with a blog post from author Kaleb Reed talking about how he is the prime suspect in the murder of Singer and Child Actress Kelly Trozzo and her manager Barry. The book then jumps back to Kelly tweeting about Kaleb's book Pay Me Back Alice and talks about their first meeting and how both their lives become intertwined. It was a crazy chaotic relationship, some called it a fairytale romance as Kaleb's book saved Kel...

Review: Daisy Jones and the Six - Taylor Jenkins Reid

Review: Daisy Jones and the Six - Taylor Jenkins Reid - March 2019 This particular book has been sitting on my "want to read" list for a while now as it sounded like a fun read and I have also read a few of this particular's authors books and enjoyed them. The other reason, I needed to get on and read it was because it is being made into a TV series which I am looking forward to watching, more so now that I have finished the book. Do you know how some books can just take longer than others to read, often due to the format of the book? For me, that was Daisy Jones and the Six. This book was written in a full interview format as the "author" is writing a biography about the band and the lead-up to their break-up which happened suddenly. One minute the band was at the top of their game and the next just like that everyone started to crumble one by one until Daisy Jones and the Six didn't exist anymore. Starting from the beginning were two different stories -...

VBT# My Darling Husband - Kimberly Belle - March 2022 This book was an interesting read as I wanted to first read it as I have enjoyed this author's previous works and I love my thrillers. As I started reading it, it was written in the format of an interview with the husband aka Cam. The book then jumped to months prior when Jade is picking her daughter up from music and she swears a guy is stalking her. She calls Cam and he says it's nothing to worry about and we see Cam dealing with a fire at one of his restaurants. When Jade gets home, a man is standing there with a gun and so begins a journey of a home invasion as Jade and her kids are held hostage by a masked intruder. The masked intruder we learn knows the family too well and wants Cam to pay. As he reveals his story, we discover that all isn't happy and perfect with Jade and Cam and that he has been keeping a truckload of secrets from her and the Bees aka Baxter and Beatrix. When the kidnapper asks for money, can Ca...
