HHas anyone read this? I stayed awake to read it, it was so gripping! I literally didn't put it down! It's 99p on Google play books I think, not sure about elsewhere and I definitely recommend it.

It's about a couple who's friends and family think are perfect, he's a lawyer who helps abused women, she's the perfect cook and homemaker. They're always together....... they're ALWAYS together. It's disturbing and chilling but it's the best book I've read in a while.

Any recommendations for anything based on my love of this are welcome!

Cheesy, yeah it is quite harrowing. I read the Elizabeth haynes one, that was really good too. I think the way she writes is excellent.

And, that's great, I love recommendations. Reading is my favourite hobby so I run out of books too quickly without recommendations! Aw I hope he's better soon!

Argh please excuse typos, have a poorly boy snuggling on my lap!

I've read that Cheesy, found it so harrowing but an excellent read.

Glad ypu enjoyed it DiesAnyone, I'll be back later with some books I've enjoyed, I have spent a lot of time on Kindle finding books Grin May be some you haven't heard of but like the look of.

I am reading it now. Halfway through. I have to keep stopping because it's so disturbing.

Have you read Into the Darkest Corner by Elizabeth Haynes?

And thank you, I've just got that one. It looks good! I'm just finishing Amanda brooke missing husband which is good and I'll read the Amanda prowse one after.

The widow by fiona Barton is very good too!

Yes it was fantastic! I have not been cripped like that for a long time.

AndYourBirdCanSing · 14/02/2016 21:42

Just checked, it's Amanda Prowse

AndYourBirdCanSing · 14/02/2016 21:40

I would also love any suggestions on what to read next.

OP have you read 'what have I done'? It's on kindle, can't remember the author but is a similar theme

And- wasn't it brilliant! I was chilled to the bone reading it! Loved the ending too, it was so good. Shame there's no more by this author! I looked for them in Facebook so I could see if they were writing another book but I can't find them, ill be keeping my eye out though.
