Well lets get started I guess

I thought I would give a go to reviewing or at least giving some idea about the books I've read, and maybe you will find something you like also.
This is my first shot at anything like this, I tend to read free/cheap books from the kindle library, For this first post I thought I would post some short reviews I have put on another site just to start things rolling.
I'm currently half way through a book which I will give a review on when I'm finished all though I'm finding hard to get into this book.
I apologize for spelling/grammar mistakes I'm a reader not a writer. :p

The End of Everything
Megan E. Abbott

Book Description

A close-knit street, the clink of glass on glass, summer heat. Two girls on the brink of adolescence, throwing cartwheels on the grass. Two girls who tell each other everything. Until one shimmering afternoon, one of them disappears. Lizzie is left with her dread and her loss, and with a fear that won't let her be. Had Evie tried to give her a hint of what was coming, a clue that she failed to follow? Caught between her imaginary guilt, her sense of betrayal, her own powerful need, and the needs of the adults around her, Lizzie's voice is as unforgettable as her story is arresting. This is no ordinary tale of innocence lost . . .

My Thoughts

This was an OK read, I was interested and I did want to know what was going to happen, But I thought it would of left more of an impression on me (having a daughter myself).
Not sure why but I didn't really feel the story, don't get me wrong I felt sorry for the girl after she told her story of what happened, but I didn't care for the girls they just didn't feel real.
It was a good idea but it was maybe too long winded I'm not sure why but at the end of the book it was just OK, nothing amazing, but not bad either. Im not sure what was going on at the end. 2.5/5

The Secrets Between Us
Louise Douglas

From the Back Cover

A chance encounter

When Sarah meets dark, brooding Alex, she grasps his offer of a new life miles away from her own. They've both recently escaped broken relationships, and need to start again. Why not do it together?

A perfect life
But when Sarah gets to the tiny village of Burrington Stoke, something doesn't add up. Alex's beautiful wife Genevieve was charming, talented, and adored by all who knew her. And apparently, she and Alex had a successful marriage complete with a gorgeous son, Jamie. Why would Genevieve walk out on her perfect life? And why has no one heard from her since she did so?

A web of lies
Genevieve's family and all her friends think that Alex knows more about her disappearance than he's letting on. But Sarah's fallen in love with him and just knows he couldn't have anything to hide. Or could he?

A mesmerising novel reminiscent of Daphne du Maurier's Rebecca - a passionate love story and a haunting page-turner that will keep you gripped to the very last chapter.

My Thoughts

Finished this book last night, read it in 2 days. Real page turner couldn't put it down. Its a really good mystery/who done it type book. Normally I have these figured out rather quickly, took me awhile with this one. I really enjoyed this book. The only problem I would say is the beginning, I think the situation happened to quickly while I understand why this was, but it wasn't very believable. I know she was running but I don't think she would of done so quickly and for him to want a stranger with no qualifications in childcare to look after his child unsupervised. I got over this quickly, the book was very well paced, very interesting. Is she going mad? Can she trust him? Can the police be trusted? All the questions I had while reading, and the reason I couldn't put it down.
4/5
