O Outono está à porta (Finalmente! Bendita sejas, Mãe Natureza) e eu mal posso esperar para matar saudades das minhas camisolinhas🥰🍂🍁🌲☕️ . . Outubro também é o mês ideal para colocar em dia tudo o que são leituras estranhas, fantasmagóricas e sobrenaturais! E nada mais indicado do que o mais recente livro do Stuart Turton para fazer isso!! Já leram alguma coisa do autor? Eu ainda tenho para ler “As 7 mortes de Evelyn Hardcastle”, mas também ando curiosa com este 🤔 Opiniões? . . #stuartturton #spookyseason #october #fall #autumn #amadalenadivaga #bookstagram #bookstagramportugal #bookstagramsofportugal #bookstagrampt #recomendo #livros #livrosemaislivros #livroseleitura #portugal🇵🇹 #leremportuguês #lereessencial #blog #blogger #bookbloggerlife #bookblogger #bookbloggersofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CUTWdCnIOoe/?utm_medium=tumblr

Book Review: The Devil and the Dark Water by Stuart Turton

Rating: 5/5 stars

Review: I read the author's first book (The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hugo) and really enjoyed it, so I was eager to see how this book held up. I really enjoyed this book as well. I really loved the alternative Sherlock Holmes feel of it and obviously I loved the character of Sara and I loved her daughter also. I honestly loved the twists and turns the story took and couldn't predict most of them (there were a few really obvious ones, but overall they were good). I am discovering that I really like books set on boats so I really liked the setting and the atmosphere.

MILD SPOILER: I watch a lot of murder mystery shows, but don't read a lot of mystery (it's kind of weird) but in the ones I watch usually if something supernatural is happening the main character figures out that it wasn't supernatural at all, which I was assuming for a lot of this book. But as I kept reading, I became less and less sure that that would be the case, but I genuinely couldn't figure out how some things would be wrapped up (like the whispers, for example).

Anyway, I really enjoyed this, it was a nice fall read (don't know if you've noticed but I do pretty much all of my mystery reading in fall), and I would totally recommend it if you are looking for a shocking mystery.

No, Monkey. You're not the devil the book is about. I kid, I kid! Finished Stuart Turton's The Devil and The Dark Water & enjoyed it. It wasn't revolutionary or as mind boggling as his previous book, but I still had a good time with it. Told from multiple points of view, with a particular focus on Arent, a mercenary protecting his friend, a famous detective, who was arrested for an unknown crime & is jailed bon a ship headed to Amsterdam. It isn't long before strange things start to happen on the ship & people start dying. From there, it becomes a whodunnit, whydunnit, & who's next. I do wish Turton was a bit subtler with the themes & the ending was probably the weakest part of the book, like how it was in Evelyn Hardcastle. I kinda predicted part of the end. But, all in all, a fun book that managed to keep my mind off the craziness that is 2020. * Have you read it?

I’m reading three books at once and I don’t know how people can read multiple books all the time. It’s not like I mix the stories; it’s that I feel I’m not making any progress. On top of that, I decided to watch all the (European) Skam remakes and it’s taken over my life. I finished Druck (the German version) and I really enjoyed it. Gonna start the Italian today. • • Have you watch the original Skam? Or any of the new versions? 🌷 • • #readingupdate #thesevendeathsofevelynhardcastle #stuartturton #sciencefictionbooks #thrillerbooks #mysterynovel #amreadingnow #unitedbookstagram #booksandmugs #booksbooksandmorebooks #bookishaccount

The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton

Rating: 5/5 stars

Synopsis: Aiden Bishop is trapped in a time loop. He has eight days to name the murderer of Evelyn Hardcastle or the loop starts again. He is given eight witnesses to inhabit for each day. He must solve the mystery within the eight days while avoiding being killed.

Review: I loved this book. The concept was so interesting and intriguing to read, and the mystery was a really satisfying one that I wasn’t able to guess the answer to. I was on the edge of my seat during the entire read. I stayed up until midnight reading this book and it was worth it. I highly recommend. The author did a great job of building the suspense; it felt like Aiden could be attacked at any moment. I don’t know what else to say but if you like mysteries, you should give this one a try.

🧭☠️ A man wakes up not remembering anything about himself or where he is only to see a man chasing a woman through the woods and hearing a gunshot. He then finds out he has to solve the murder and has 8 days to do it and will inhabit 8 different bodies to do it. ♟📖 When I saw @everydayreading recommendation for this book a couple of weeks ago I had to head to Half Price Books and pick it up asap. Then I read through it in just a couple of days. It’s not scary but has eerie moments which is my favorite for October. This murder mystery is unlike any other I have read before and now I need to read more of them 😆. I just don’t need the heavy gore etc that comes with a lot of murder mysteries. Anyways, I’m really hoping Netflix follows through with making this a tv show. | #lmdloves #lmdlovesbooks #thesevenandahalfdeathsofevelynhardcastle #stuartturton https://www.instagram.com/p/CVgyJoIJUnP/?utm_medium=tumblr
