Yesterday on Twitter I asked in a poll which book you’d like me to read and review next. Sweet Little Lies by Caz Frear or Ghosted by Rosie Walsh, both hot items on the book market, both highly anticipated by book lovers.
Sweet Little Lies will be released on August 14, 2018, but already is gaining momentum on Amazon among readers giving it over four stars out of five. It tells the story of a young London policewoman working on a murder case. The deeper she gets into the investigation the more she believes her estrange father has something to do with it. The book is being marketed as a journey into the protagonist’s dark childhood past that she can’t put away. You can pre-order the book on Amazon for $12.99 on Kindle, Hardcover and Paperback you can expect to pay $26.99.
The other contender in my poll was Ghosted, which was released on May 1 of this year. It has four stars on Amazon and retails for $12.99 on Kindles and $15.99 for a hardcover copy. If you purchase the book today, you can save additional $0.96 with a coupon on Amazon. The book has been hailed by critics as an instant bestseller.
