Flowers over the InfernoFlowers over the Inferno by Ilaria Tuti
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Flowers Over the Inferno by Ilaria Tuti is an unsettling thriller which offers a fresh, raw, and honest story. Ilaria Tuti allows you to glimpse into the mind of a very deranged individual and gives you an opportunity to truly understand the circumstances which drove the killer to commit these atrocious acts.

Superintendent Teresa Battaglia is an experienced investigator and understands how the criminal mind works. She is good at her work and has earned the respect of her team in a male-dominated profession. Her health is however digressing and she is concerned that she will not be able to perform for much longer.

Massimo Marini is a young inspector who just transferred to the commissariat and has been assigned to assist Battaglia. Full of pride and pretention, Marini soon learns that Battaglia is excellent at her job and he has a lot to learn from her. Because of that, he hopes that he will find a way to impress her.

A series of gruesome and violent crimes have the city of Travenì people on edge. The crimes do not make sense and Battaglia is struggling to decipher the connection between them. The clock is on to stop the murderer before it is too late.

Review: Fight For Her by Liz Plum

Fight For Her  by  Liz Plum My rating:  3 of 5 stars 📚 Hello Book Friends! FIGHT FOR HER by Liz Plum is a coming-of-age YA Romance. It is an easy-going story about a love triangle between a popular girl, a star athlete, and a bad boy. The story was interesting and had some potential. It was just a bit too juvenile for my taste and sometimes too dramatic. It is nonetheless an enjoyable love story if you put your teenager's thinking cap on. The author delivered a good story with a lovely ending. #bookstadog #poodles #poodlestagram #poodlesofinstagram #furbabies #dogsofinstagram #bookstagram #dogsandbooks #bookishlife #bookishlove #bookstagrammer #books #booklover #bookish #bookaholic #reading #readersofinstagram #instaread #ilovebooks #bookishcanadians #canadianbookstagram #bookreviewer #bookcommunity #bibliophile #fightforher #lizplum #bookreview View all my reviews

Review: Waves by Ingrid Chabbert

Waves  by  Ingrid Chabbert My rating:  5 of 5 stars WAVES, written by Ingrid Chabbert and beautifully illustrated by Carole Maurel, is a deeply personal and poetic graphic novel that explores the profound journey of a young couple trying to conceive. Drawing from the author's own experience, the story delves into the emotional depths of heartbreak, resilience, and the power of hope. The use of metaphors in Waves is exceptional, creating a mesmerizing reading experience. Chabbert skillfully weaves together the themes of writing, coping, and healing, forming a profound connection between the protagonist's pain and her quest for renewal. The dreamlike illustrations by Carole Maurel add an ethereal touch to the narrative, particularly in the visual depiction of the boat and waves of paper. While the subject matter is emotionally intense, WAVES is an extraordinary work that invites readers to embrace vulnerability and contemplate the complexities of life. I highly recommend this gra
