enjoyed it, definitely one of my favourites of the series


I almost didn’t buy this book from a poor review I read on Amazon that didn’t finish the book, but something inside me asked, how could so many other people absolutely rave about it? So I gave this new author a chance and am so thankful I did. You can’t judge this book if you don’t finish it till the end. I think this is such a misunderstood read by mediocre minded people who lack to see the depth in this book. Yes, there are some disturbing scenes, but they should be! The author deftly navigated the horrifying sequences without being too graphic in detail. Isn’t that the reason we all read thrillers because it scares us and we like to despise the bad guy? These things happen in the world we live in...why should we stick our heads in the sand and act like it’s not out there. It doesn’t make it go away. It has opened my eyes to being more aware of my children and not taking the life I have for granted. I can’t imagine what these unfortunate families must go through when these tragedies strike. It could happen to anyone. How do they ever pick up the pieces and live a normal life again? First Night of Summer is a gritty, yet emotional and pulse-pounding read that will stick to your thoughts long after you finish it. This is not a surface level thriller, it digs deep into the psyche of a darkened mind and pulls your heartstrings into the abyss of one family’s despair. To my surprise, it has become one of my favorite reads of all time.


Based on the authors who wrote 50 Shades and Bared To You books. I am reviewing these for Netgalley.

I understand they are not everyone's cup of tea, but these are really good mini series kinda books lol. Shame I only have 5 to review, but will definitely be thinking about the other 3 to finish the series lol.


Who wrote it Lucy?
I've started on The Iron Duke as it's going to be a group read in November. Enjoying it so far - love the world building!

Review book for Netgalley lol
