The Girl Without a Name

Review: The Girl Without a Name - Sandra Block - September 2015

Are you a fan of psychological thrillers ? Love reading your mysteries ? The Girl Without a Name by Sandra Block was a fast paced thriller set in a hospital in the Mental Wards. It focused on mainly Dr. Zoe Goldman and her boss Dr. Tad Berringer. During one of Zoe's rounds , a girl turns up in the ward - a 12/13 year old black girl who is catatonic . The girl can't remember anything and is called Jane Doe. As the story goes on, we read as Zoe makes it her priority to discover the girl's true identity and help her find her family as someone must be out looking for her and so begins her journey as an almost detective tracking down clues to Jane Doe's real identity. In doing so, we also discover that Zoe is currently seeing a shrink herself due to her ADHD and also we learn more about the RIKE Test and different patients in the ward . This helps the reader learn and understand more about Mental Illnesses and I found it quite interesting to have factual information in between a fictional thriller. The Girl Without a Name is not a book you will want to put down as you have to keep reading it as you want to know who Jane Doe is and how she turned up in the hospital and not to spoil it for you readers but The Girl with No Name has a major and when I say major, I mean MAJOR twist at the end of the book which I totally did not see coming . 
The Girl with No Name by Sandra Block,is one of the best thrillers that I have read for 2015 and readers , you will not be disappointed.

Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas

  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

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: Dr. Strange Beard - Book #5 Winston Brothers Series - Penny Reid - July 2018 If there is a family that I love to read about it has been the Winston Brothers. This has to be one of my favorite book series out there as the brothers ; you can't help but fall in love with them all - with their funny quirks and their redneck comments. The other thing I love about The Winston Brothers is they are all genuinely nice guys ; they may look like they had a bad bone and they have reasons too - but they are the nicest around there, and they have the best intentions. Dr. Strange Beard is the youngest Roscoe's story. Roscoe has only ever loved one person his entire life besides his family - Simone Payton and now she is back in Green Valley except now she is an undercover FBI agent who is after his Dad Darrell Winston. Of course, to make the snatch, she has to get close to the Winstons and who better to use as a target but Roscoe. The thing is though that ten years a
