About Me & This Blog


Hi!


I'm Steven, I'm a 3rd year Human Resource Management & Marketing student at The University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland. This blog will pretty much be me rambling on about my favourite type of fiction books: mystery. Reading is a favourite past time of mine and I love books that make you think and encourage you to join the dots and figure out what's going on.

I will strive to keep the reviews spoiler free, and I certainly won't spoil any of the major twists in the stories.

I will go over a short plot analysis and round off with my thoughts on the story, the writing and what I thought overall about the story.


I hope you enjoy my thoughts on these books and encourage you to maybe give them a go yourself!

Once she calls the police get involved, Gemma discovers something horrifying: there's a serial killer on the loos...
