Synopsis:



Lincoln: Catching sight of my neighbor’s ass in the hallway the day I moved in more than piqued my interest. It's not just the body that has my attention. She's mysterious, hiding behind sunglasses that cover most of her face. I ask her name and try to get her to talk on the rare occasions I see her in the hallway, but every time she ignores me and turns away. I need to know more about this woman, I can't get her out of my head. Do I keep trying? Do I keep asking her name?





Ashton: I’m barely holding on. I’m always on the edge, even after all these years. I live every day the same and I can’t change who I am no matter how much I try. My new neighbor won't give up asking my name and trying to make conversation with me. If he knew me he wouldn't keep trying. I'm a lost cause.

Excerpt:



I sucked in a breath. “Are you trying to kill me?”


“A little dramatic don’t you think, Ashton.” She stood up and smoothed out her clothes.


Suzanne was tall, skinny, and blonde and sometimes she wore glasses. Other than that, I don’t pay attention to people or the unique details they all have. They all blend into categories, and I can’t see past that. They are short or tall, fat or skinny, and the only other thing I notice is usually their hair color. And I guess glasses. Sometimes those stick out to me.


My world is boring.


Bland.


Dull and lifeless.   


Sometimes the beating of my heart is the only thing that reminds me that I'm alive.


“I’m scared, Suzanne.”


I’m always so fucking scared.


“Anxiety can do that to you.”

Review

I don’t normally pre-order stuff. But after reading Pretty Stolen Dolls, I just had to. I wonder how I survived those couple of long weeks waiting for this book to be released. I just got lucky receiving an advance copy to read and review.

This is yet another mind-blowing ending for the series. I’m actually running out of adjectives to describe the book. It was well written in a way that you wouldn’t want to put the book (or my phone for that matter) down until you’ve finished every last word. I may have been too alert to have caught on the twist. But even then, I was all like “I knew it! I knew it!” It was all so surprising and extraordinary. It was also fast-paced and without a dull moment. It was able to actually live up to reader’s expectation of a good sequel. The suspense it had for the reader is just enough to tickle curiosity and make them read more and more. It devours your soul and crushes them into pieces.

The characters also portrayed a very good role of loving the story plot. They were made there for a reason. And not one bit of them was wasted. You can’t help but love to hate the villain and love the heroes. They were written in such a way that you get to see everything in their eyes. It also helped that it was written in multiple POV that you get to see the whole picture. I’m so thankful that I got the outcome that I sort of hoped for after joining the PSD spoiler group. I also enjoyed meeting a new book boyfriend at the most unlikely of places. Dillon is definitely added on my book boyfriend list.

The twist may have been something unexpected for some, it was just how I like it to be especially if they aren’t really planning on adding another book in the series. Otherwise, I may have been doomed! Just to state the obvious, I’m rating this 5 out of 5 dolly stars.

Book Review: Pretty Stolen Dolls - Ker Dukey and K Webster

Read 27-28 September 2016

Synopsis

Benny loves his pretty little dolls.
As long as they do exactly as they're told.
He keeps them perfect by brushing their hair
and gives them pretty dresses to wear.
He likes to toy with them late at night.
One so timid but the other likes to fight.
When his favorite doll runs away...
despite the other doll promising to stay,
his heart becomes broken and he can't help but cry.
He wants her back home or his pretty little doll must die.

Have you ever had to make a decision that haunts you every single day for the rest of your life…the life you stole back?
I have.
I ran for my survival, rocks and twigs cutting into the soles of my feet, my lungs burning and screaming for rest, every muscle tensed and fighting along with me for existence.
I left her.
I ran, ran, ran—from Benny and his lone, pretty little doll—until I couldn’t remember where to find them again.
I’m sorry.

Review

I’ve been seeing this book promoted by one of my favorite authors and an admin of one of the groups I’m in. But for some reason, and maybe because of the fact that this is only $0.99 at the time, I one clicked and preordered.

I haven’t read a really good heart stopping suspense thriller for some time now. This book kept me up all night (or afternoon for that matter). First, it made me miss my stop going home. Then it made me miss my sleep that afternoon. I should be preparing for an 8-hour shift and I only had 3 hours of sleep. It’s been a long time since I let sleep pass in exchange of reading a book. Recently, I’d let my exhaustion get into me. But this book make me want to forego sleep altogether. My hands and feet were clammy with sweat. And I think I held my breath more times than I could count.
I also loved Dillon Scott. I think I found a book boyfriend in him. It’s kind of weird, but you’ll never really expect where you can find your next book boyfriend.

I also loved the twist on the plot and *insert spoiler here*. It boggled my mind so much that I had to think back on all the other scenarios and hated myself because it’s actually right there in my face and I didn’t see it. It was just amazingly written.

My heart’s still pounding way after I've read it. And even though I kind of hate myself for not listening to my gut feel when it said that I wouldn’t like how this will end, I would still definitely give this five out of five stars. I wouldn’t hold it against the book or the author if I suck at waiting. I don’t normally read on unfinished series, but this is just too hard to resist. It’s been a while since I last felt this about a book. Kudos!

And after seeing Jamie with Ellie, they know exactly how to take him out . . .

EXCERPT

“’Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.” Alfred, Lord Tennyson, said that in some poem in the 1800s. In my opinion, Alfred, Lord Tennyson, was full of shit.Maybe Lord Tennyson had never truly loved someone; maybe he’d never cared for someone else more than he cared for himself, because if he had, if he’d loved someone so deeply he’d been willing to die for them, how could he have written such a horseshit line? I’m merely speculating, of course. I’m no academic, so I know nothing about the guy other than that one quote. So how then, you may ask, does my opinion so vehemently disagree with his?Because I was in love once.Only once.And I lost her.And I would give any fucking thing in the world to have never loved her at all. No, it most definitely is not better to have loved and lost..Fuck love. And fuck Lord Tennyson.
