FTC: I received a free copy of this book from Partners In Crime Book Tours in exchange for my honest review. I received no other compensation and the opinions expressed in this review are one hundred percent true and my own.
Women In Shadow by Carrier Stuart Parks was a sweet story. I have read quite a few books by this author, and this one didn’t let me down. I did wish that this book had been more suspenseful, but that wasn’t a deal-breaker for me. This book didn’t have any adult scenes or anything that may offend someone. The author did a great job of making the characters come to life as I was reading the book. I did have a hard time keeping the characters straight, and I think that is because there are so many different people in this book that I would get confused as to who was talking. I enjoyed that this author included animals in the story because that made the story come to life for me. I didn’t figure out what was going to happen before the book ended. This book did have enough suspense that I kept reading until I had finished the book, so over all it was a great book that most people would enjoy. If you don’t like super suspenseful books, then I would for sure pick up a copy of this book.
As a side note, I bought the audiobook version of this book, and I enjoyed the narrator’s voice, and I would listen to other books that she has narrated in the future.
