Featured Reviews
I had the pleasure of visiting Edinburgh recently and during my trip, I stumbled upon an intriguing audiobook set in the very city I was exploring. The audiobook turned out to be a thrilling experience that left a lasting impression on me. It skillfully blended elements of mystery and suspense, compelling me to constantly ponder the unfolding events.
What stood out to me was the emotional depth the thriller achieved. It evoked a wide range of feelings, from sadness to genuine horror, immersing me fully into the story's atmospheric world. The author's ability to make readers connect with the characters and empathize with their struggles was truly commendable.
While some may argue that the twists and turns in the plot weren't overly shocking, I personally found the subtle approach refreshing. The gradual buildup of tension and the gradual revelation of the story's secrets kept me engaged throughout, without relying on gratuitous shock value.
Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the audiobook. The combination of an atmospheric setting like Edinburgh and the well-crafted thriller narrative made it a captivating experience. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a thought-provoking and emotionally resonant journey into the darker corners of the human psyche.
A dark and disturbing book based around incel forums. Told from the points of view of both sides. The background of Liam was just awful what happened. It really does make you think. This had me hooked from the start, and I didn't want to stop listening. This ticked all the boxes for the perfect read. I can't wait to read more from Heather.
I listened on audiobook, and i just loved the narrators Scottish accent. She definitely made the storyline entertaining and captured the characters' voices brilliantly.
