Review: The Last Mrs. Parrish

The Last Mrs. Parrish The Last Mrs. Parrish by Liv Constantine
My rating: 5 of 5 stars


The story starts with Amber befriending wealthy golden girl Daphne who appears to have it all – the big house, the clothes, the loving husband, but Amber has plans. Bonding over their mutual grief for the loss of their sisters both the Cystic Fibrosis their friendship grows quickly but not all is as it appears. I’m not going to say any more as I would hate to spoil it for you, and you really need to read this yourself.

Wow! What a book – I had read lots of positive things about this on social media, and to be honest, I resisted jumping on the band wagon for a while, but I truly wish I hadn’t. The story drew me in right from the start, it was dark and sinister in parts and had more twists and turns then a roller coaster ride at Alton Towers.

I loved this book so much I am telling everyone I know to read it!!! Do yourself a favour, beg or borrow a copy and read this today – it’s a remarkable book and so far, my favourite read of 2019

Maybe Next Christmas by Emma Heatherington

  Maybe Next Christmas" by Emma Heatherington was a delightful festive read that truly delivered in the end. While I found the beginning a little slow, once the story picked up, I was completely hooked and couldn’t put it down! Emma's storytelling and knack for building relatable, heartfelt characters shines through, making the journey worth it. The Christmas charm, along with themes of love and second chances, make this one feel as cozy as her other novels. Definitely recommended for fans of Christmas romances or anyone looking for a feel-good, warm festive read!

The Commuter written by Emma Curtis and published by Atlantic Books

  In The Commuter , we follow Rachel, who has just woken from a coma after a car accident, only to be told that her wealthy husband has been murdered in their family home. As Rachel begins to recover, she experiences flashbacks, including memories of a mysterious fellow commuter—a man whose name she doesn’t even know. Strangely, since her husband’s death, this man has vanished, and now the police suspect that Rachel may be involved in the murder. As the investigation deepens, Rachel finds herself racing against time to uncover the truth before she is wrongfully imprisoned for a crime she knows she didn’t commit. The Commuter is a psychological thriller that explores suburban life, blending suspense, deception, and complex relationships. While the story maintains tension throughout, I found the plot became quite complicated toward the end, and I did feel lost at times. Some parts left me feeling a bit detached, but overall, it was an engaging read. Rating: 3.5/5
