KJK Reads

Rating: DNF Themes: Thriller, Crime, Mystery Thoughts: The storyline seemed unnecessary padded and lots of paragraphs didn't really further the plot any. I skipped to the end just to see how she was found only for there to be no verdict after 138 pages of trial, really. And the epilogue not only still dodnt answer it but left with more wtf questions. 

Rating: 4 Stars Themes: Coming of Age, Romance, Young Adult Thoughts: This is such a sweet coming of age story. Mo experiences so much growth throughout the book and it tackles the difficulty of growing up a Church Girl, Vaginismus and positive sexual education in a sensitive way.  Favourite Quote: "Fear comes out of ignorance, and I've been ignorant about my body for far too long."

Rating: 4 Stars Themes: Thriller, Murder, Suspense, Mystery, Psychological Thriller Thoughts: Lisa has done it again. I haven't picked up a Lisa Jewell I didn't like yet and this is no exception. Twists and turns are constant as you start to believe you've sussed characters out to keep you guessing. The epilogue was wow, although I'm sure some readers will have disliked an ending like that, not getting all the answers completely.  Favourite Quote: "People are everything. That's one thing I've learned. if you're with the right people then you're generally in the right place."

Rating: 4 Stars Themes: Dystopian Fiction, Feminism, Science Fiction, Contemporary, Fantasy Thoughts: This was such a good read. There's multiple points of view from different genders and stances with included discussions between two people after the event that's counted down to. It's interesting in these emails to see how the genders have been reversed and the aggression and violence remains ingrained. Overall an interesting read with feminist tones.  Favourite Quote: "This is the trouble with history. You can't see what's not there. You can look at an empty space and see that something's missing, but there's no way to know what it was."
