Furchtbar lieb (Dead Lovely #1) 
This book went from unbelievably boring for the first 150 pages and then things started picking up and got some crazy going on. I was not expecting the craziness this book had in parts. When I say crazy...I really mean "gross" crazy to "what the what" crazy. I can pretty much handle reading all sorts of crazy and rather enjoy it but when we got the "poop" crazy....that was way too much for me!! NASTY!!! I know it is part of life but I don't care to read about it and I really don't care for
I loved this psycho-thriller-esque story. It must be painful to imagine that, had it come out around now, it would have been likened to Girl On A Train and Gone Girl. And probably made into a movie. It's a gripping read of a likeable gal, Krissie and her annoyingly perfect best friend Sarah. But things aren't as they seem (are they ever?) and gradually the past is revealed alongside the present storyline's wild ride!

Crazy book but so easy to read. I happily devoured it even though it was over the top. The theme of child molestation emerges and taunts the reader and it makes me wonder is it ok to write about or read about such things. It is uncomfortable.
I think the chick-lit style of the opening half of this book* with a young woman candidly discussing her friends, promiscuity, and her struggles with new motherhood, all helped create a slightly unreal atmosphere which made the harrowing events of the second half of the book (and they were pretty disturbing on paper) less repellant and easier to swallow in the context of a quick read with plenty of twists and turns. I enjoyed it, despite the gory nature, violence and abuse content, though I'm
This book must have the greatest opening page ever written. Its not the type of opening page that will be quoted in the classics, but an opening page where the main character has just fellated the husband of her best friend whilst she is in the same tent and then hides her body certainly gets your attention.The book is mainly a black comedy - but a very, very dark one, where peadophillia, adultery, single parenthood, drugs, alcohol are all the punch lines.In the main female character - and from
Amazing... It caught me in the first page and lured me to keep reading!! Just as you hit a dull sentence you are uplifted with something enticing. An excellent, well written thriller. You can love and hate the main character and sympathise with the psycho star of the book. The back story was just enough to gain some insight but not so much that it bores you to death. The story itself is a twist in itself and I loved it so much I shared it with my fiancé who couldn't put it back down either.

Sarah hingegen hat alles im Griff, sie hat ihren Traummann Kyle geheiratet. Zu ihrem perfekten Leben fehlt ihr nur noch eines: ein Kind. Doch ihre Verbissenheit macht ihre Ehe zu einem Fegefeuer aus Frust und Zeugungsunfähigkeit. Als Krissie, Sarah und Kyle auf einer Zelttour durch die schottischen Highlands mal richtig abschalten wollen, geht alles schief: Krissie und Kyle stĂ¼rzen sich Hals Ă¼ber Kopf in eine Affäre und Sarah von einem Felsen.

I have to say I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this book. It was picked up in poundland one day and it proved to be a very entertaining read.It centres on the friendship of Krissie and Sarah and shows the fractures of their fragile lives through their connection. Sarah wants a baby but can't, Krissie has one after a one night stand.The author has written an interesting and entertaining book, with sparks of dark humour in the even the darkest moments. The characters are interesting, layeredThis book went from unbelievably boring for the first 150 pages and then things started picking up and got some crazy going on.
