Author: Elizabeth Forster ISBN: 9780857990235 RRP: $4.99 Louise Forster is another of the early Escape authors who helped me get better acquainted with my e-reader, unfortunately life has gotten a little on top of my and I’m a little behind on writing the review and I’m sure I’ve told you all how I despise that. [...]
Author: Liane Moriarty ISBN: 9781742612010 RRP: $32.99 I have been thinking about how to approach this review since finishing the book yesterday and I’m still not quite sure, this book literally blew me away. The Husband’s Secret was in part inspired by an article about deathbed confessions so there are lots of deep, dark hidden [...]
Author: Ciara Geraghty ISBN: 978-0-340-99811-3 RRP: $27.99 Lifesaving for Beginners seemed to take a long time for me to get lost in, having said that I just realised I basically read the book in two days so it can’t have taken that long. I found much of the story quite disjointed, and not in the [...]
Author: Jenny Schwartz eISBN: 9780857990075 eRRP: AU$1.19 Generally I am not a huge fan of short stories, only because I prefer something I can really sink my teeth into and short stories are more of a bite sized snack. Having said that, I put any preconceived ideas aside and embarked on the Escape titles. I [...]

We will be part of Juliet’s big release blog tour later this month when we have her in for an interview, but before that I have a review of her debut novel Fast Forward. [...]
Author: Rachael Johns ISBN: 9781743560167 RRP: $29.99 I read Jilted by Rachael Johns soon after its release and it left me eagerly awaiting her next rural offering, it seemed like such a long time I waited for this to arrive and I was extremely lucky it arrived just before I headed off and didn’t leave [...]

Holly is the [...]
Author: Linda Lael Miller ISBN: 9781743560129 RRP: $29.99 Big Sky River continues the ‘Swoon-Worthy Cowboys’ series, I’m not sure if that’s the official series title but that’s how they are described on Goodreads and I thought it sounded good.
