Have you ever rooted for the criminal in a story? Well, I found myself rooting for Billie West, the baby thief?! Yes, I know, I couldn't understand it myself. 

 

Bye, Baby was an enjoyable read that kept me interested, I'm not sure it is the mystery/ thriller it is labelled as, but more towards the woman's fiction or crime label. 

 

In all honesty though, the e-arc was sent to me and it took a long time for me to decide to actually download it and read it. I am probably not the ideal reader of this book and should have stuck to my instincts on that and not picked it up. 

 

Thank you to @netgalley and @stmartinspress for the opportunity to read and review an e-arc of this book before publication date. 

 

Examening the idea of parallel timelines and time travel, this book had me wondering where it could possibly end up. I kept reading and reading with no idea how Howard would end the story, and only hoped it would end as I wanted it to. 

If you are a fan of sci-fi, dystopian novels, or speculative fiction then this one is for you. It’s a page turner for sure. However, it is also a love story of sorts too. 

A fabulous debut novel that has me waiting for @scottalexanderhoward’s next novel. 

Thank you @netgalley and @simonschusterca for the opportunity to read and review this novel. 

 

Wanted to be riveted to your seat and never know where a book is going to lead you? Then this is the book for you. Half way through I thought for sure I knew what was going to happen. Was I ever off! 

A thriller/mystery set in a rural region of Cornwall with a group of friends, who really aren’t that nice to each other. What could go wrong? 

If you are a thriller or mystery lover then I would definitely pick up this one! 

Thank you to @netgalley, and @simonschusterca for the opportunity to read the advanced copy of this book. Thank you to @hannahrichell for writing a book I enjoyed reading. 

An interesting storyline with a happy ending.

Unique story and clearly an author who understands the idea of dystopia.

It was interesting to read about Perry's life from his perspective.
