Thanks to Netgalley, Diana Wilkinson and Boldwood for an ARC in return for an honest review.
I finished this book in just two days! It was so good! Jade is afraid of flying and books herself three seats every time. Jade just left her boyfriend and is escaping her reality to venture to a millionaires playground. There she hopes to fit in. On her flight she meets a charismatic hunk and things spark quickly! This book is full of ritzy living, manipulation and all of the above! I had no clue who was against who until the end..making it even more engaging. The author fully captures different personality disorders in this book. Definitely recommend!
Heart pounding thriller that left me on the edge of my seat. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this one. Definitely one of the best books this year.
Sunshine, suspense and a chirpy protagonist, as well as lots of crazy shocks throughout. The opening sequence was particularly vivid. Ideal for fans of twisty psychological thrillers with a holiday vibe.
With thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for the opportunity to read an early copy in exchange for an independent review.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book from start to finish. I found the plot well paced and engaging. The characters (most of them) were incredibly selfish and money oriented so set in a location like Marbella, this was perfect!
Money makes the world go round! Certainly in sunny Marbella, the millionaire’s playground, where Jade is heading to live the lifestyle she deserves. When she meets a handsome man on the plane who takes her to his stunning villa, Jade chooses to ignore the red flags and enjoy the ride. I was really enjoying the book, feeling the sunshine in my face and smelling the warm sea air, but then it slowed a bit and just as I was wondering where it was going to go…. Part 2! Marta, the housekeeper’s POV turns the whole thing upside down and it gets really tense!
Brilliant characters who will all do anything for money, even the nice ones…
4 ⭐️ Thanks to Netgalley, Diana Wilkinson and Boldwood for an ARC in return for an honest review.
Thank you to #NetGalley, Boldwood Books and Diana Wilkinson for the opportunity to read an advance copy The Girl in Seat 2A, to be published 19 January 2024. 5/5 Stars for this psychological thriller that seems predictable until you’re halfway through it! It’s a wild ride of lies, deceit and control that has twists and turns and a great finale. Great read. #NetGalley #BoldwoodBooks #DianaWilkinson #TheGirlinSeat2A
I was hooked by this book instantly. Especially as you were given more information as you went on, it made me feel like I didn't want to stop reading untili knew everything!
This book was definitely a bit different from what I normally read! But it was a good read! it had the usual, suspense, intrigue, action, mystery, gas lighting, kidnapping, and some crazy twist and turns! The storyline was interesting and kept me glued to my Kindle! I definitely recommend reading this book as it was worth reading! Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for sharing this book with me!
I've had my head stuck in this all day and have no regrets! It's not very fast oaced but it does keep you invested and wanting to find out what's really going on. There are little clues and twists peppered in throughout and nothing turns out to be quite what I was expecting. A quick read but omg was it good!
Very entertaining, well-paced thriller, set in sunny Marbella.
Jade is looking for a more luxurious lifestyle than the one she's had so far in the UK.
She's banking on finding a wealthy bachelor to sweep her off her feet and thinks it could be Isaac.
How she doesn't run a mile from him early on is hard to fathom, maybe self-doubt and confidence.
Loved the maid's point of view, which gave a great insight into what was happening.
A compelling story with some interesting twists and turns towards the end.
Many thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley UK for the ARC.
A good mystery that really kept me going. This is a great weekend read to escape in. Thanks for the opportunity to read as I thoroughly enjoyed.
Interesting (not exciting) character keeps the story moving as clues are dropped throughout the story to make the reader re-evaluate the possible outcome(s). A quick read that didn’t quite make the cut for me.
This is an excellent thriller. She gives just enough clues along the way to keep you hooked.. The characters are well developed and overall the book is excellent.
4 solid stars
This is exactly what I want when I’m reading a thriller. The thrill! This book is paced so perfectly that it doesn’t allow you to put it down. This is the reason for the joke “just one more chapter.”
Very edge of your seat with plenty of twists and turns. I had to know what was going to happen. Thank you Diana Wilkinson for my serious lack of sleep last night…lol
The Girl in Seat 2A by Diana Wilkinson is another gripping read from an author who unfailingly weaves her way deftly through a tantalizing and thrilling tale of intrigue and suspense.
Jade has come up lucky in the lottery and treats herself to an indulgent escape to Spain, where she will endeavour to master the art of living life as a millionairess. Installed in seat 2A, which is her comfort zone as a nervous flier, she finds herself looking into the face of a handsome stranger, one whom she quickly deduces is not short of a bob or two himself. Could this chance encounter with the charming Isaac be the start of a fabulous life of wealth or, in fact, the most unlucky meeting of her young life?
Full of twists and turns, and told from dual perspectives, I could not put this one aside for even a moment, so desperate was I to get to the bottom of it all. 4.5 stars
Many thanks to NetGalley and Boldwood Books for an ARC.
Wow wow wow. This is the first book by this author I have been able to read word for work. I read it all day and even at my son’s hockey game. Jade won the lottery and goes back to Spain on a vacation. While it was obvious what Isaac was doing, all the situations around him were not what I expected. Great ending!! Great Suspense. Her best book yet!
