I found myself sympathising with the antagonist in some strange way. Our House by Louise Candlish I’ve talked about this book before, I recommend it to everyone! The storyline is so far from your typical thriller or crime novel, I felt myself get so in to this because even though it was such a unbelievable narrative it all made sense at the same time. It’s a very good read, one of those books where you shut the cover and think about it for half an hour afterwards! It’s a bit of a farfetched storyline I suppose, but it doesn’t ever feel too unrealistic for some reason. Then, a chance happening on their honeymoon changes everything – it’s all pretty crazy. They seem to be the dream couple, until Mark loses his job and some serious cracks start to show. Erin is a filmmaker working on a documentary on prisoners awaiting release, and her husband Mark works in finance. There was quite a few twists and turns, and I loved the way it was written – so many other added little details that really built the characters for me.Īnyway, to give a bit of a backstory the novel follows a couple who seemingly have it all.
Something In The Water by Catherine Steadman This book had me gripped from the get-go, the opening chapter totally shook me! I flew through the chapters because I wanted to know how it had gone from a couple celebrating their anniversary to a woman burying her husband in just three months. I love the feeling of having a good book, I try to always make sure I’m reading something so I have an excuse to go to bed early… and then stay up until 3am turning pages. I actually haven’t been reading all that much lately, although I did get through a few books whilst I was in Bali. I pile all the blankets I can find on the sofa, prep a pot of tea (probably a pack of biscuits too, knowing me) and lose hours to a good, gripping book. At the start of autumn, I start stockpiling books so I have a constant supply of material to delve in to when it starts getting really freakin’ cold in the evenings.
