Here we again, a new month a new review from me. There are only a certain amount of ways you can start a new book blog post. After that they just become more reparative. For that I'm sorry, anyway back to this book blog post. This post is all about, After The Crash by Michel Bussi.
So welcome to all my new readers. If you haven't read any of my other blog posts don't worry. The reason why I write these blogs, is too spread my favourite reads and bestsellers with you. So you can go out and buy them yourselves and enjoy them just as much as I did. Readers, if you didn't read my last book blog post which was, The Kind Worth Killing. Then you won't know that I made some changes too my post. I put the book description before I introduced the author too you the readers I'm about to do the same thing in this blog post. In other words here is the book description it is taken from the back of the book also known as the blurb. "On the night of 22 December, a plane crashes on the Franco-Swiss Border." "All the passengers are killed instantly, apart from one miraculous survivor- a three month old baby girl. But who is she?" "Two families step forward to claim her, but is she Lyse-Rose or Emilie?" "Two decades later, on the eve of her eighteenth birthday, the detective who investigated the case makes a discovery that could change everything..." That is the end of the description, anymore and it would spoil the book. Nobody would buy it and that's not good.
Now it is time to introduce the author too you the readers of this book blog post here we go, Michel Bussi is one of France's most celebrated crime authors. He is the winner of more than 15 major literary awards. Michel Bussi is a professor of geography at the University of Rouen and a political commentator. This book After The Crash is his first book to appear in English. It will also be translated into over twenty languages (I bet most people won't read this paragraph)
I guess it is time, for the most important part of a book review it is the opinion. So here it is. Where do I start... The beginning of the book definitely takes a giant leap and gets straight to the point. But when it jumps forward the eighteen years. It feels like it has taken a giant leap backwards. I felt like the book was like a wind-up toy as it took more time to get me more excited about the book again. It was a very slowed paced beginning. I was putting the book down more than picking it up. When I eventually got to the halfway point it felt like a totally different book. As the pace picked up and I couldn't put the book down any longer. I kept reading it faster as I wanted to turn each page quicker, because I wanted to know what the end was going to be like and to see if they solved the mystery. Overall it was a well written mystery and I can't wait to see what this person writes next.
I would totally give this book a 7/10. I would also recommend this book to the older audience as there is a lot of use of strong language and that would be inappropriate for younger readers. If you wish to stay updated on my blogs and when I upload a new book blog post please give me a follow.
