I started off the summer with book after book from @amazonpublishing because I had free kindle unlimited for 3 months. That meant, free books but most all of them were published by amazon. Can I tell you a secret? Well, what I thought was a secret? They've all been REALLY good books. Here to Stay by Mark Edwards was no exception.5 stars for Here to Stay. And, since the last book I read was The Testaments, also 5 stars, you'd think I'd be maxing out at 3 stars for awhile. It's a good thing I flew through this one because I have chewed all of my nails off now. (I wonder the percentage of book reviewers and bloggers that have acrylic nails vs not?)
I really fell in love with Elliot, the main character in Here to Stay. He was such a likable guy, doing all the right things in life, teaching at risk kids about science, refinished his house, GARDENING, for goodness sake! Well, I was skeptical of Gemma from the beginning. It all seemed too good to be true. And, when the in-laws move in and won't leave, the author does a great job of showing how slowly even a nice man like Elliot can lose it. Well, let's just say they are the in-laws of all in-laws. And, just when I had the bad guys pegged, Mark Edwards flips the script at the end and wow, I knew something was coming but didn't expect THAT!
I recommend this one. It was long but I made my husband drive everywhere tonight so I could fit in the time to finish it by the time we got home tonight.
I was provided the book for free in exchange for an honest book review. Thank you @netgalley and @amazonpublishing #heretostay was a nailbiting #thriller #intense #bookblog #mustlovebooks #bookreview #5stars @markedwardsauthor
