Well I'm back again, so that means it is time for another blog post!! How is everyone doing? Anyone else enjoying this spring weather. Sorry if your in another country and currently going through another season altogether. Well it turns out I now need glasses as my eyes are getting worse as I am reading more and more. You will definitely see more clearer and a difference in your eyes if you need them too, so go and get them checked your eyes that is. Now I can see better, I'm reading even faster than before. Which means I can get these reviews out for you guys to read even quicker. Anyway back to the reason I'm writing this review, the book. This book is called The Liar's Chair if you haven't read the title yet. This book was written by Rebecca Whitney.
I would like to take this time to welcome any new readers and to thank them for choosing to read these blog posts. To all my readers that continue to read these posts from the beginning, thank you for that continued support. It totally means a lot to me. This paragraph is dedicated to the author of a his book as we find out more about them. As they deserve every bit of praise they get. Without authors there won't be any books to read. So this author is called Rebecca Whitney. Rebecca Whitney completed a BA in Creative Arts at Nottingham Trent University (UK) and found much of her art and performance work inspired by the written word. Her other love is film, and on graduating she moved to London where she worked in production, moving up from tea girl to producer and executive producer on music videos and commercials. After returning to Sussex where she'd grown up, her passion for literature was rekindled, and in order to discover if she has a book in her, she completed the Creative Writing Certificate at Sussex University (UK). It was on this course that this book, The Liar's Chair germinated. This book The Liar's Chair was published by Mantle/Pan Macmillan in January 2015. Rebecca is currently working on her second psychological thriller, a standalone book about new motherhood and paranoia. She teaches for Guardian Masterclasses and the Creative Writing Programme in Brighton, as well as writing short stories, plus features for newspapers and magazines.
This next paragraph features the blurb which is just another word for the passage that can be found on the back of each book. It also can be described as a synopsis. I like to put th blurb into my blog posts as it gives you the reader a chance to read the blurb. Then you can see if you want to go out and buy the entire book. Let me know if you enjoy this part of my blog posts! Also by reading the blurb it gives you the reader a better understanding of the book. So here we go, the blurb: "Rachel Teller and her husband David appear happy, prosperous and fulfilled. The big house, the successful business- they have everything. However, control not love, fuels their relationship and David has no idea that his wife indulges in drunken indiscretions. When Rachel kills a man in a hit and run, the meticulously maintained veneer over their life begins to crack. . ." Remember readers if you have read this book. There is a chance you may not be reading this but if you are, please don't give any spoilers about the book. For those who prefer to look at a picture, a picture can be found at the end of this paragraph.
It is time to give my opinion of this book. Where do I start, the cover is a good place as any other. Even though I never judge a book on it's cover. When u first picked up the book it give me a shiver that went down my spine. It definitely has that eerie feeling about it. Once I had started to read it, I was instantly hooked by this authors way of writing. I couldn't put the book down as the book had gripped me so much. As I read each page I really wanted to know what was going to happen on the next page. I read this book within a week of starting it. This book had many twists and turns which I was not expecting. But it also had topics throughout the book which should not be taken lightly, it definitely pulls on the heart strings. But the way in which Rebecca wrote this book it made this book storyline more understandable and the characters were easy enough to follow. I throughly enjoyed this book. This book definitely needs a follow on to carry on story. I need to know what happens to Rachel and David. I can't wait to see what Rebecca writes in the future!!
This book is going to get a 8/10. I would also like to recommend this book to anyone who loves a awesome thriller. This book is not suitable for younger readers as some parts are not meant to be read by them.
