  Brecia, Meghan, and Skye were murdered by James Carson, a charming man who lured them online. After their deaths, their spirits seek revenge and try to prevent James from killing again. Will they be able to stop him in time from committing more murders and hurting innocent lives? This was a different kind of POV and that's what intrigued me to read the novel. Brecia, Meghan and Skye were murdered by James to satisfy his blood-lust. He lures women online, stalks them, confronts them, sometimes loses interest and keeps multiple women on hook to be able to carry out his nefarious motives. Brecia is the most strong willed of the three; Meghan, the one caught in limbo and Skye, the youngest of all, with a common aim to stop James. Being spirits there is only so much they can do, but they try their best. Their aim is to protect James' wife and children, come what may and finally rest in peace. I liked this book. It's the only one I have read from author  @noelleihliauthor  and

  Eve and Nate are a married couple, who also teach at Caseham High. Eve is a Math teacher, very good at her job, very formal with her students and therefore not a favourite of the students. Nate, on the other hand is a good looking man, very empathetic and a student favourite. Caseham High is still reeling from a scandal involving a teacher and student name Addie. Addie lies, tries to hurt people and has a hidden past. But now she has a new secret. How far will she go to keep it and what becomes of the people who cross her? This book gave me the ick, mainly because it deals with the topic of student teacher relationship and it creeps me out. Eve and Nate have such different personalities that even as a reader, you are astounded that they are still married. Addie is vulnerable, and has heaps of baggage. She is bullied and harassed and finds comfort in poetry. The entire plot revolves around how Eve and Addie's paths cross and the consequences of actions, both past and present, that

  The story centers on the mysterious disappearance of Dawn Schiff, an eccentric and introverted office worker, and the subsequent investigation led by her more conventional colleague, Natalie Farrell. Dawn's odd behavior and enigmatic past make her disappearance all the more intriguing, while Natalie's determination to uncover the truth reveals her own agendas. The novel reads from the POV of Dawn and Natalie. Dawn's description of her life, her interactions especially with her boss and Natalie and her emails to her best friend Mia, leads the reader to sympathise with Dawn, especially as you realize that she is autistic or on the spectrum but it isn't explictity mentioned. Her observations lead the author to form opinions about Natalie and you find yourself drawn to defend Dawn. Natalie is concerned for her colleague and for the most part is trying to escape the web she has landed into by trying to locate Dawn. When a body is found, all hell breaks loose. Who is to bla

  Millie is looking for a job after being sacked from her previous one and having spent 10 years in jail. A fact she does not want her new potential employer to know. Nina Winchester, married to the wealthy Andrew Winchester, is looking for a nanny/house keeper and seems to love Millie immediately. A week goes by post their interview and Millie gets the job. She is happy on two accounts - one, she doesn't have to live in her car any more and two, she can earn some money to sustain herself. With all of them having secrets and agendas, one thing remains clear - this is not a happy ending for some. This book has been recommended on so many forums that I had to give in and read. It started off well enough and didn't make me want to DNF it. What it did make me feel, was the intense urge to slap every single person in this book. Even the kid. I am an incredibly non violent person, so this was a very strange. Nonetheless, I kept reading and eventually understood that my urge was very

Mr and Mrs Bantry wake up to find the body of a young woman in their library, with no idea of who she is or how she came to be there. Mrs.Bantry immediately calls up her friend, Miss Marple, to help investigate and solve the crime before the village of St. Mary Mead gossips and ruins the Bantrys social standing. There are suspects galore and they all seem to have a connection with The Majestic hotel and the Jefferson family. While the investigation continues, another body is found and now Miss Marple knows just the direction her investigation needs to follow! This is the first Miss Marple book I have read. I was in a slump for a bit and really didn't think of the order. Just picked up the book from my shelf and started reading. I have to say I am very biased to the incredible Monsieur Poirot and was pretty grumpy when I started reading this book. I was proven wrong and how! This is such a warm & cosy read and Miss Marple is such a wonderful lady. She's abreast of the villag

  Agent Nikki Hunt returns to Stillwater, Minnesota after 20 years for a case to find the killer of two fifteen year old girls found frozen in the forest. It's not just this murder that has Nikki racing against time in her old hometown. When her parents were murdered 20 years ago, Nikki's testimony and available proof put Mark Todd behind bars. She believes his crime, but new evidence can prove his innocence. Nikki now has to not only find a killer but also come to terms that the past may need to be revisited and rectified. It took me a long time to finish this novel. For many reasons. Nikki Hunt is supposed to read people like a book. Criminals do not faze her and she gets them to confess even when other agents can't. Despite being that good, she is extremely stubborn and doesn't care to see evidence surrounding her parents death in new light until she's actually led by her attraction to the convict's brother. Her fellow agents are very much like herd following
