So I'm back again. *Wave* One question does anybody else find introductions hard to do? I just find it hard to start each blog post differently each time. I hope your enjoying my blog posts, please let me know so I can receive more feedback. Therefore I can improve my blog posts. Which will make it better for your viewing. Anyway how has your week been? Mines been a bit better than the last time I wrote to you, the readers. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I have. But you will have to wait for my opinion, you can find it later on in this blog. It is so much better when I can read outside and it's so sunny it puts me in a really good mood which results in any book being read quicker. If you haven't read any of my blog posts before you may be wondering why I write these blog posts. I write these blog posts because I have a big passion for all things books. I thought why not share with other people what I thought about each book. So I created the blog which is going to improve my writing skills therefore it helps if I wanted to become a author myself one day. Back to the book itself this review is all about: The Bones Of You which is written by Debbie Howells.
At this point in my blog I wish to welcome any new readers to these blog posts! Thank you for choosing to read my blog posts and to all my older readers thank you for your continued support. It really means a lot to have your support. This next part of my blog is all about the blurb of the book. The blurb on most books can be found on the back of each book. Sometimes people use the word synopsis for people who don't know what that word means, it means a small summary or passage describing the contents of an object like a book. I hope people actually find it more relevant that I put the blurb into my blog posts I think that it is really needed in a blog post as it gives a better understanding on which book is being reviewed. It can also make the reader of this blog post understand what the book is like, therefore they can make their first opinion about the book. Without the blurb in my blog post you won't know what the story is like. It will also make you decide if you want to go out and buy the book. When I read the blurb, its how I immediately get addicted and hooked to any book unless the book I'm reading is part of a dried then I definitely have to read the next book. So without further delay here is the blurb of this book: "A community in shock. When eighteen year old Rosie Anderson disappears, life in the idyllic village where she grew up is never the same again. A family torn apart. Rosie was beautiful, kind and gentle. She came from a loving family and had her whole life ahead of her. Who could possibly want to harm her? And why? A keeper of secrets Kate is a friend of the family, and she's certain someone in the village knows more than they're letting on. As the investigation deepens, so does Kate's obsession with solving the mystery of what happened to Rosie." Readers, if you prefer too look at a picture of the blurb instead. You can find it at the end of this paragraph. If you have read this book, you may not be reading this review but remember nobody likes spoilers so please don't give any away this those who haven't read/finished this book yet.
This next paragraph is dedicated to each author of every book I review. I like to dedicate each author this paragraph as they spend so many days shut away in an office from their loved ones. Just think about how many hours they have sat in front of a computer screen reading emails, editing/re-editing pages of their books and the endless meetings they have with their book management teams. But in the end it is worth it. As they get something they can hold and show it off to everybody and the pressure has gone. Hard work does pay off. So it feels like I'm giving something back to them, by dedicating this passage to them. Can you imagine a world without authors there won't be any books to read, it's a reality us bookworms don't want to imagine. After writing all that I just know some people will get bored of my rambling and just skip this part and move on to my opinion. So here we go, introducing Debbie Howells. Debbie Howells lives in West Sussex (UK) with her family. Having worked as a cabin crew and a flying instructor, she spent several years running a very successful wedding flower business. She started writing as an escape from a busy summer of weddings. Her first books This Your Life and The Impossible Search for the Perfect Man were written under the pen name Susie Martyn and self-published as eBooks on Amazon. Encouraged by positive feedback, Debbie used her love of flowers and first hand experience to write the contemporary women's fiction novel Wildflowers, the first book published under her own name. She started writing her first psychological thriller, this book, The Bones of You. Debbie is now represented by United Talent Agency. The Bones of You was published in July 2015 and her second book was published in 2016.
The time has come to deliver my verdict or my opinion as some people like to call it. Where do I start? Let's start at the beginning. When I read the first part, about Rosie it triggered my imagination off. Starting a new book, it's like exploring a whole new world. But once I finished reading Rosie's part I couldn't wait to see what the rest of the book is going to be like. But the next part left me feeling a bit disappointed because it didn't take off. It just left me feeling a bit flat and I got bored which lead me to stop reading it. But when I start a book I can't just leave it halfway through and pick up another book. So I picked it back up and carried on reading it. As soon as I got to the halfway point of the book, it's like the book changed. It suddenly had a change of pace. I found myself reading the book for most of the day and I started to ignore most of my family as I was escaping to a different world. I found myself not putting the book down as often as before. Some of the topics that are throughout the book will definitely haunt you leaving a permanent thought in your mind. There are many twists and turns in this thriller. I loved how this book was written it was easy to understand and follow as the book switched back and fo, between the different character chapters in the book. Now that I couldn't put the book down and reading it at a much faster pace people were telling me to slow down. But I needed to know who had done it. It was the last person I thought it was going to be in other words my guess was totally wrong. There was a little bit of regret once I had finished it because I hadn't slowed down. I can't wait to see what she writes in the future and I can't wait too read it.
I would like to give this book a 8/10. I would fully recommend this book to anyone who loves a good crime fiction and is 16 and over.
