The Patient by Teri Terry (Review)

 

Thank you to Netgalley, and the publisher for a chance to review this.

This was an incredible fast paced thriller. It kept me guessing. So many times I thought I'd figured it out only to find out I was wrong. My own heart was pounding for Saphy. 

The cover itself really draws potential readers. The bright yellow background with the knitted pink heart I think is great. I enjoyed the craftiness of the twists, I didn't want to put my Kindle down. (if you're reading a physical copy, you wont want to put it down either.) It did make me think what would happen patients, and how much are they really connected to the organ's original owners? Sometimes, I think it can be more than we think. If you're looking for a quick fast paced thriller than I think this will be the book for you. 

Butter by Asako Yuzuki (review)

 

Thank you to Netgalley, and the publisher for a review copy. 

I'm torn on how to review this. I half liked it, half didn't. I love the idea of food, and murder. This I think did a good job at that. I do think it was a little too long. Some scenes dragged out for me, and I had to set it down. To me it wasn't as thrilling as I'd have hoped either, but that's my preference. I do like that it was inspired by a true crime though, and I do love true crime. I'll have to look into the actual case itself.
