📚 🅱🅻🅾🅶 🆃🅾🆄🆁 🆁🅴🆅🅸🅴🆆 📚 𝗥𝗔𝗩𝗘𝗡𝗢𝗨𝗦 by H. N. Pashley ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I’m so happy to share my thoughts on Ravenous as part of the blog tour hosted by Random Things Tours. Thank you for my spot on the tour and for my copy of the book in exchange for an honest review. 𝗠𝗬 𝗥𝗘𝗩𝗜𝗘𝗪 I should say that the blurb had me hooked, but it still didn’t prepare me for how brilliant this book was to read. Set not all that long after the reign of fear created by Jack The Ripper, this new set of murders appear to be intended as retribution for some wrongdoing on the part of the victims. I found the story eerily compelling almost immediately. The beautifully described scenes, even the horrific scenes, made it very easy to visualise the story as if acted out in front of me. The wealth of characters were a joy to meet and get to know. Even the wrong’uns. I think that Ada would be most readers' favourite character; an independent, strong, driven woman in a predominantly patriarchal society. Women can't even vote at the time of the story. Studying to become a doctor would make her a target for vitriol from men and women alike, but none of this would put her off her chosen profession. I found myself feeling for the fragility of her father, while admiring the grandfather's standard and bearing of a military man. There are many supporting characters who I really liked, including Milly and Rory. There were also the necessary characters I took on instant dislike to. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the read which kept me guessing, and made me suspect even the nicest of characters. This was a book that maintained a great pace throughout which was then cranked up toward the end. If I go into any further detail, I'm sure I will give something away, so I'll stop. Suffice to say I recommend this book to readers of psychological thrillers and historical fiction alike. I gave Ravenous, by H.N. Pashley, five stars. #ad #gifted #Ravenous #hnpashley #randomthingstours #mystery #horror #booklover #bookstagrammers #johnsbookshelf #bookstabloggers #bookreader #blogtour #bookstagram #bibliophile #bookshelf #bookaddict #igreads #bookblog #readabook #johnsbookshelf (at Southampton, England, U.K.) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChVzDe9IOFE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
