Welcome to Litsy!

This was just a so-so for me. The premise was interesting - a woman gets pulled over with her kids in the car on a trumped up charge. What happens after to her and her kids is something to unravel. Wasn‘t bad, just wasn‘t my favorite either. But this did get my June #bookspin off the list

I was very satisfied with my first read of June! This book was recommended by my mom so I figured I would give it a shot and I really enjoyed it! I had to keep reading from page one to find out what was going to happen next. I really liked it!

A top-notch thriller that doesn‘t really rely on a mystery to keep you invested...just characters you really care about and ones you really want to see taken down. I highly recommend it. The narrator, Abby Craden, is really good too, especially for voicing more than one POV.

I read this 3 years ago and enjoyed it very much!

I love that it didn‘t rely on a huge twist but still managed to maintain suspense. I couldn‘t stop reading.

Loved this one! Read it in less than two days.

I don‘t remember the last time I was so ANGRY that I wanted to shout and throw a book against the wall. This happened within the first 20 pages. Not because of the book itself but what‘s going on in it. Lord, help me get through this one. Can anyone relate?

Next one up!

I‘ve finished off my first book for #24B4monday I started this yesterday, on my way to work, and just finished it while getting in some steps for #BookFitnessChallenge. I thoroughly enjoyed it! The narrators were great, and the story had me intrigued from cover to cover. A definite recommend!

Roughly 2h 20m for the #24B4Monday & book 12/18 completed for #BookFitnessChallenge @wanderinglynn @Andrew65 @RadicalReader @TheReadingMermaid

Audra kenney is escaping new York with her 2 children when a police car pulls her over in the arizona heat. Arrested and in the cells when she asks after her children the sheriff asks 'what children '. Thus begins this pacey thriller which had me at the edge of my seat throughout the 300 pages that flew by. Sinister villains, disbelieving feds, a media scrum, and odious husband add to the tension. Definitely a page turner.

Wow- What a page turner! I loved the fast-paced action as a mother desperately tries to save her children. This is the first book written by Haylen Beck, pseudonym for Stuart Neville. I‘m looking forward to his next one! #LitsyAtoZ #TheLetterH

Oh. My. God. What an amazing thriller. It captivated me with cliff-hangers, plot twists, and the sheer power of a mother whose kids are in danger. 10 times out of 10 would recommend.

Randomly grabbed this at the library and so glad I did. I‘d heard nothing about but judged it by its cover. It is sooo good. Heartbreaking throughout most of the story, but it set a great pace and kept me hooked.

My husband and I went shopping for recliners for our den today. Win-win. I‘ve got a great new reading chair and he has a matching TV -watching chair.

It begins with a woman fleeing through Arizona with her kids, escaping an abusive marriage. When shes pulled over by an unsettling local sheriff, things soon go awry and shes taken into custody. when she gets to the station, her kids are gone, the cops say they never saw any kids with her.

Meanwhile, a man hears the news about the missing kids, which are similar to events in his own past, and he too is drawn into the fight for their return.

Finished this yesterday . Starts out slow but when it gets running it bolts ! What if you and your two children were pulled over by cops and now your children are missing? This is scary sh🤯t

4⭐️. This book is absolutely gut wrenching. My fear is that this story is something that‘s really happening today. Missing children is a parents worst nightmare. Audra is a wonderfully realistic character. She is weak & vulnerable & yet very strong in the face of adversity. This is a fast-paced page turner with action, suspense and intrigue. Read more. https://lharvey250.tumblr.com/post/158721921344/here-and-gone-haylen-beck-my-rat...

This is one of those-you are in the action within a few pages type of books. This is such a fast and captivating read, I am surprised it is not on more radars. It is a good, solid thriller that is perfect for a quick Labor Day read. I will say, if pedophiles make you crunch up, stay away as part of this involves "the Dark Web." That stuff really bothers me, but it was still a good read.

New 4⭐️ Review up on the blog - I couldn't put this one down! https://booksmorethananything.com/2017/08/27/review-here-and-gone/

I've read that Here and Gone is going to be made into a movie. As good as the book is, I can't wait to see what Random House Films does with it!
This is probably the best book I've ever received for review. @Crownpublishing @penguinrandomhouse

While the storyline was fairly predictable, the reading was quick and dirty making it a good summer read. That being said, this is a forgettable book that I won't remember a few months from now. If you're looking for light suspense and traditional characters, this book is for you. #caturday #bloggingforbooks

This was book was just okay for me. More time needed to be spent on character development and world building. The plot moved along fine and the ending was satisfying but my attention wavered throughout.

One of my good friends just took the kid for the weekend so me and the hubs can have sometime alone. I just got back from drop off, took off my bra, poured a glass of wine, am currently in my bed and will read a bit before taking a nap! Happy Friday everyone!!!

My second #bookhaul for the week. I'm failing miserably at not buying books.

Starting a new #bloggingforbooks title! I hear it's a quick summer read.

Starting this tonight! I've heard mixed reviews so I'm hoping it's a pick but time will tell. Here we go!

This one was a difficult one. Difficult to get through because it is my biggest fear (I have to admit I often have nightmares about it) to lose a child to kidnap and abduction and this book has only fed those fears now. From the first page it takes off and doesn‘t stop in a fast-paced thriller. I found myself screaming at the characters and the twists and turns in the story. I just couldn‘t put this one down.

Here and Gone had me engrossed from the first page. I felt the depth of the children's fear and the mother's desperation. I haven't read anything like this in a long time.
Beck's paragraphs are clean and concise, no added bulk, yet they have the ability to sensitize your rawest emotions. I can't wait to read more from this author!

I received a review copy of this book from @Crownpublishing

Finished this book at my 14th hour of #24in48 readathon, and I loved it! It was so intense and I literally couldn't put it down until the very last page! Haylen Beck (pen name of Stuart Neville) has successfully wrote such a gripping story which make readers can't wait to see what happens next, and I honestly think this book will make a great movie. Rating: 5/5 ⭐️

"My children are out here on their own" (page 224)
.
12 hours in the #24in48 readathon and I almost finish my second book, which is Here and Gone. This book is definitely fast-paced, and I really can't wait to see what happen at the end. On another note, I'm so glad I joined this readathon, never thought I would get this much reading done! ??

This was such a great mystery. About a woman who takes her kids on the run from her abusive husband. After a hard life and thinking she is going to start fresh something awful happens. Her kids are gone. Where are they? Why happened? Will she get them back? Read Here and Gone to find out. Read my full review on https://biblionail.wixsite.com/blog

Also for anyone to order a candle from my shop this week will receive a free bookmark.

Just finished and I definitely recommend - especially if you are road tripping through AZ like I was this weekend!

It's not a long book but it was a well written thriller. It kept me on my toes from the very beginning ( so much so that I actually had to read the last chapter before I could finish reading-I'm the worst!). I hoped the story wouldn't be convoluted into something silly and it wasn't. It's about a mother who will doing anything to find her kids. I could see being made into a great movie. 4 stars. Thank you to blogging for books for my free copy!

No thank you. I'm bailing after 90 pages. These people are despicable! Not in a fun-to-read-about way. Although I'm curious about how it ends (tagged spoilers are welcome if you've finished it), I don't want to be in this world any longer.

From the first page to the last, this book didn't stop moving. Definitely a pick for a great thriller.
