The Patient by Jane Shemilt (netgalley review)

 



Thank you Netgalley and William Morrow for a ebook review copy.

This book read slow for me. It was more a drama than a mystery or thriller. I liked the synopsis,and idea of the story, i guess I just wanted more thrill. I love fast paced thrills,and page turns,and was hoping this book would provide that,sadly I wasn't that thrilled.

Hide by Kiersten White (Netgalley review)






 




Thank you to Netgalley and Random House Del Rey Publishing for this ebook review copy.
This is my first read by Kiersten White.

I read the synopsis of this. It sounded so so good, don't get me wrong I did like this book, but I didn't love it. The idea of an abandoned amusement park, and a game of childhood hide and seek really drags you in. 

  So many times I was left hidden myself. I felt lost. By the end I was still almost wanting more. A little more of everything. 


I do really love the cover for this book. Seeing it on Goodreads,and other online sources in full color is nice. (you don't get that with e-ink). So I know in person it will be extra beautiful. 

 I love the creepy mustardy yellow is. The black and red viny creepiness of the park. I feel it all just fits.


In all I give it 3 stars because I did enjoy it, I was thrilled just not completely to my expectations. If thr author writes another horror/thriller novel in the future, yes I'll still give it a chance.
