Bad Sweet Things di Maria Hoey

This was a fast read for me! It was entertaining & the suspense was great! I found myself at the edge of my seat a few times! I liked that we got to hear from the bad guy in this story! It gave us some history & it was neat to see their point of view! Even though I did figure out the ending it wasn’t until I was almost the very end & I still enjoyed the twists & turns! The pace & the flow of the story is good! I really liked Tina's character! Do you think you can figure out who the killer is? Or how about the WHY they are killing?… (altro)

The Last Lost Girl di Maria Hoey

Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing.

This book was dark. There was mystery and paranoia in each character you meet. There is closure by the end but the trail is long and your boots are heavy by the time you reach your answer.

The Last Lost Girl di Maria Hoey

Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing.

Unfortunately, I was never able to download this book - it looks like it could have been really interesting and I love a good thriller so I was disappointed, but as there is no other way to connect with the author or agent to get my copy, I'll have to see if I come across it another way someday.

On Bone Bridge di Maria Hoey

Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing.

Suspenseful read...... I found this book hard to put down.......
From my childhood, since i'm addicted to reading books, my mom had imposed strict limitation on how much time i could spend reading at a stretch......so I have conditioned myself accordingly and even now as an adult, I'm usually able to limit myself just to my self imposed daily reading limit. But all that went out the window during this book.......
I even started giving my husband daily short synopsis of what I read that day.... ;-)
Anyways....... I loved the way the story is narrated by Kay....... and I loved all the characters, the key players (Kay, the Duffs, etc) and even those that had non significant roles (like Ken Fitzgerald)...
Though I kind of guessed what had happened on that day on bone bridge (and it turned out to be true), I had to keep reading to find out how it would be revealed to Kay........
Overall great book!
Thank you LibraryThing Early Reviewers club!… (altro)
