Blog Tour Review - Kittiwake Stormhaven and the Pirate's Portolano by Victoria Williamson A daring mission, a sister turned pirate and a sea full of secrets… In a world of water where land is a legend, 11-year-old Kittiwake Stormhaven dreams of adventure aboard the Amazon Princess.

Review - Sleep by C L Taylor

Review - Sleep by C L Taylor

All Anna wants is to be able to sleep. But crushing insomnia, terrifying night terrors and memories of that terrible night are making it impossible. If only she didn’t feel so guilty…

To escape her past, Anna takes a job at a hotel on the remote Scottish island of Rum, but when seven guests join her, what started as a retreat from the world turns into a deadly nightmare.

Each of the guests have a secret, but one of them is lying – about who they are and why they're on the island. There's a murderer staying in the Bay View hotel. And they've set their sights on Anna.

Seven strangers. Seven secrets. One deadly lie.



An excellent thriller!

I was on edge from the first page and it kept me guessing until the very end. I think I suspected just about every character except the killer, but once revealed it all made perfect sense and I wanted to go back through and read the clues I could remember seeing but not understanding at the time.

 The sense of peril and menace is palpable and the claustrophobic feeling of being trapped in the hotel. 

I love it.
